Fleeced! - Shear Terror review thumbnail

There is a war out there, a war we aren’t told about. CNN, BBC and Al Jazeera have all missed reporting on it.  The war between llama herders in Peru has gone medieval, and you are thrown in the middle of the conflict.

You are in control of both maintaining the integrity of the llama pen, [...]

Black Matter review thumbnail

Crush, kill and destroy – repeat. Done? Repeat again for 140 levels. Done? Play again on a higher level of difficulty. Black Matter is an all out action assault game with a hint of strategy thrown into the mix.

In Black Matter you are in command of a space station with eight available weapon slots. You [...]

Zamby - cyclop box moving puzzle bonanza
That box goes there, and this goes here, and….zapp. My little cute Cyclops Zamby got zapped once again. Retry, box, box, box, made it! Zamby is a spatial puzzler where you have to guide to the goal. Moving boxes [...]

Bridge Odyssey review thumbnail

Hey mate can you save me? I am kind of stuck here on the other side of the ravine. And yes I have been forced into a cage so I can’t do it myself. And well I am kind of a squirrel so I can’t do heavy lifting anyway. My name is Squirrel by the [...]

Cartoon Wars thumbnail

Cartoon Wars is a tap defense style game, in which you must save your castle from the onslaught of enemy units. It immediately grabbed my attention because it reminded me of the random .gifs of the stick figure beating the hell out of a door. My theory is that this gif is showing what is [...]

Into the blue review thumbnail

At times innovation is all about combining already existing products into a completely new one. For example taking orange juice, and carbonating it turned it into a quite popular fuzzy drink. At other times it doesn’t work at all, for example the N-Gage that took a good phone, and combined it with a quite alright [...]

Shark Attack review thumbnail

I am one of those waiting impatiently for Plants vs. Zombies from the casual masterminds at PopCap to show up for the iPhone. It isn’t hard to understand that clones of great games surface in the App Store. Actually I am a bit surprised that there hasn’t been a Plans vs. Zombies clone available yet. [...]

Trenches review thumbnail

War is hell, and for each man who perish by a bullet from his fellow man mankind takes another loss. A loss of dignity, a loss of genome and a loss of reason. Thankfully we can all forget about the serious implications for a while playing games about it. And if they are cute, and [...]

Battleship review thumbnail

Battleship is one of those classic board games I have been expecting for quite some time to arrive for the iPhone. You all know what it is about; sink the opposition by trying to find enemy ships and submarine. You do this by taking turns firing a salvo each. Electronic Arts has also injected the [...]

Coastal Defense Review thumbnail

Now that the appstore has been open for business for over a year, we have seen many tower defense games come and go; from stickwars, to tap defense, and beyond. One of the newer ones to come out has put a more modern spin on things, in Navy Patrol: Coastal Defense.
In Coastal Defense, you are [...]

Connect 4 review thumbnail

Connect 4 is a game I remember from my pre-school days as a device to put checkers in, and then you empty them out all over the floor. Of course that is not the proper way to handle this plastic piece of blue equipment with red and yellow checkers from Hasbro. Now some 25 years [...]

Hills and Rivers Remain Review thumbnail

I fully expected to like Hills and Rivers Remain. I mean, it’s Square-Enix! And check out the title. It’s cryptic and intriguing. Judging by the cover, this book will be awesome!
Nope.
H&RR takes a tested formula (Risk, Galcon) and gives it the ol’ Square-Enix makeover, complete with sexually ambiguous princes and voluptuous princesses. You know the [...]

I wish I was a mad skill hacker, I wish I had guts and mad skills I would do it.
I wish I had a mainframe with lots of power, and I would crack it.

Yeah, finally a hacking game enters the iPhone. I have been a fan of Uplink on PC, and MindLink is almost a [...]

Bombardiers Guild review thumbnail

Arm the cannon, all hands on deck, make sure this is the killing shot! The siren is sounding; the enemy has its shields down so the time is right. But better not haste in aiming as the enemy is still aiming at you, and your shields have already taken a hard beating.

Bombardiers Guild is a [...]

Rogue Planet tells a story of human versus robot, of old versus new, of flesh versus metal. You have to take back control of the Earth by sending your troops into the fray of battle. As a commander it is up to you to decide who will have to give up their lives for the [...]

The Settlers review thumbnail

I love Settlers, and by that I mean the original PC game released back in the early 1990:s. Since then developer Blue Byte Software has expanded the gameplay in no less than six sequels. Now paired up with iPhone powerhouse publisher Gameloft Blue Byte Software lets us experience the Settlers on our portable devices.
