Wikipedia defines Limbo as “[…] a speculative idea about the afterlife condition of those who die in original sin without being assigned to the Hell of the Damned.” This is a perfect way to start a review for Dark Ascent by Cruel Byte, because just like quoting a wikipedia page, …
Read More »Evasion Pong: A game about evading ads – Review
Evasion Pong is a game about evading obstacles by decelerating a ball between two goals. Every time the ball hits a goal you get a point. It´s a very basic premise not so greatly executed, and we all know most good iPhone games are a basic premise executed brilliantly. The design is rather direct …

Though listed on the App Store as Cubion, this timing based infinite scroller appears on your phone as Boxhop. It’s a confusing blunder to start, with the word ‘Cubion‘ appearing nowhere in-game i’m lead to believe a last minute name change didn’t quite make it over to the folks at …

I notice there seems to be a formula for creating an appealing mobile game. Cute characters plus addictive arcade gameplay with a dash of incorporating the touch screen into your game, and I’ll say right off the bat that Tidy Monsters by Top Bubble does all of this pretty well. …

I really like when people are not afraid to create something new, especially when it is good. This game is no exception. Climberia: Pirates is a game driven heavily by inertia. For you who does not know, inertia is a tendency of something to remain still or moving unless acted …
Read More »Tomb Heroes: endless survivor game – Review
Tomb Heroes is an arcade like action game with a simple premise. You’re trapped in a tomb with monsters, raiders, and traps. I wouldn’t call it an endless runner, but more an endless survivor game. It’s not like this is a first in a new genre, but you get the …
