Malum Umbra is one spooky, unusual ride. The name alone should tell you something about this game, it’s unique and its developers don't care how hard it is to market on the App Store. Just kidding guys. But in all seriousness, this is an indie developed 3d first person shoot...well not exactly shooter that looks great and has nice controls. The music, though overused, is absolutely stunning...
Brick Breaker-type games have been out, perhaps, since the time of the dinosaur. There are probably thousands of variations for each platform. Ok, Atari released the first Brick Breaker game in 1976, four years after Pong. But, I bet I’m right about the thousands of variations...
Alright, so you’re searching for the latest golf game with just the right amount of realism, but not so mind bogglingly complicated you feel as if you’re actually standing under the burning sun at some course you paid far too much for the privilege to play on. If you play one more round of Wii Golf you might lose your mind, and purchasing the latest Tiger Woods title just sounds unsavory on more levels than one. Welcome in The Old Course with open arms, a golf game which seems to understand the delicate balance between realism and obnoxiousness...
t's official; the guys over at Backflip Studios are among the best puzzle creators on the App Store. It seems like everything they touch that deals with puzzles is an A+. Their back category also includes the Ragdoll Blaster series. Fortunately for us, they have done it again. Graffiti Ball is so damn good that I recommend you stop reading this fluff piece right now and go get it. Still not sold? It's free!
Yet another console game adapted for mobile enjoyment comes our way from the great people over at XS Games. Originally a release on Playstation 2 and PSP, Red Star drops players into a futuristic, super technological world to wage war with the all powerful and evil United Republics of the Red Star (URRS). Prepare to choose from a selection of characters and strap in for some side scrolling, 3D mayhem, complete with super moves, melee attacks, and heavy firepower...
Doodle God manages to be unique, mesmerizing and wonderful. It takes such a simple concept and expands upon it until it really is a must buy game. What makes Doodle God so good? It’s certainly not the Doodle moniker which really has nothing at all to do with any other Doodle-type game you have played in the past. It’s certainly not that it is yet another puzzle game in the vast array already available on the App Store. It really boils down to how it makes you feel when you play and that feeling is worth chasing...
First of all let me clarify, this is not a review for the HD version of the game. That version is just for the iPhone 4 and has upgraded graphics. This version is will work on iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 and iPod Touch. The HD version has been causing issues in the App Store and hasn’t been getting good reviews because of the slow, jerky graphics...
Having played a lot of games on the iPhone and iPod Touch, I am always surprised when I find a game that can be entirely unique and stand out from the crowd. Bowmaster meets both criteria and left me wondering why no developer had thought of a game like it before. Nevertheless, iOccam has come up with a great idea and better yet, delivers an excellent game...
