Football Agent

By |2011-07-10T23:08:28-05:00June 24, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

Soccer games seem ubiquitous during this year’s World Cup. However, it may just be because it’s the world’s most popular sport. This game comes to us with a bit of a different take than the others we have reviewed. In fact, Football Agent could just as well be called stock market trader or baseball agent. Though it has a soccer motif, it’s really about buying low and selling high and doing so as fast as possible. I like the idea of the game but as someone that lives for the details, I was disappointed in how few there are...

Rocket Racing League

By |2011-07-10T23:08:34-05:00June 23, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

Inspired by the real life group of mobile racing enthusiasts, Rocket Racing League straps players into a virtual unmanned racing unit for a wild series of twists, turns, and breakneck speeds. A departure from the futuristic and wartime dog fighting titles, this is built around more traditional racing modes such as arcade, drag, and laps. With gorgeous 3D backdrops and a pulsating soundtrack, Rocket Racing League is tough to beat for the next best high powered issue in speedy competition...

Jake

Jake is known throughout the god-fearing world as what game they have to play when they are bad. Or at least it should be. While the basic gameplay itself isn't too offensive, albeit extremely repetitive, the sound as well as the lack of any innovation causes this game to be more annoying than fun...

Mr. Kubus

By |2011-07-10T23:09:16-05:00June 22, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

I’m not sure I've ever seen an iPhone/iPod Touch game like Mr. Kubus before and if I have then it obviously didn’t leave an impact. This 2D left to right scroller is a mix between a puzzler and a strategy game. The object of the game is to reach the finish line with as many red hearts as possible. As you move through the level you can gather hearts, and also lose them by running into obstacles...

Phoenix Spirit

By |2011-07-10T23:09:22-05:00June 18, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

Filled with detailed exploration, secret powers, a host of assorted enemies and maze-like puzzles, Phoenix Spirit is the latest adventure release from Spearhead Entertainment. Utilizing an interesting tilt-based control system, players embark on a journey to save the Mother Tree from losing its life force and perishing, much to the dismay of our flying squirrel hero. Designed in a similar style to classics such as Metroid or Castlevania, Phoenix Spirit is decent, but falls short of the games it attempts to emulate...

Guitar Hero

By |2011-07-10T23:09:27-05:00June 15, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

The rhythm series that started the genre in the first place finally comes to the App Store platform. Since the ubiquitous series started out 7 years ago, we have Guitar Hero come to almost every mainstream platform including the DS and the PC. It was only a matter of time before it made its way to the iPhone and iPod Touch. Perhaps no platform brings more challengers to Activision than the App Store yet Guitar Hero still manages to succeed and even surpass its competition. In fact, in some ways it leaves them in the dust...

Fly, Kiwi, Fly!

By |2011-07-10T23:09:32-05:00June 14, 2010|iPhone Reviews|

Buckle up, strap in, and prepare for the ultimate flight from New Zealand to the United States with our lovable hero, Kiwi. While guided by his crotchety, yet knowledgeable grandfather, the young bird pilot sets out on a mission to reach the shuttle launch, inspired by events captured on television. We take the journey with him, saving thousands of dollars to purchase new flying machines, abilities, and special equipment to complete the mission...
