Dungeon & Hero

iTunes LinkDungeon & Hero is a RPG by Chillingo Ltd. $2.99Dungeon & Hero is what I see as in the 2nd Tier price range of RPG's at $5 but could easily be sold for more. It is currently at the sale price of $2.99. This game is similar to Chronicles of Inotia in some ways. It is also better than Inotia in some places but also worse in others. This game really brings the old school feel to the game, unlike the newer console version of Inotia. There are three characters to choose from to save the Empire from destruction. You can start your adventure with a sword bearing Knight, Bow and Arrow shooting Elf or a magical Wizardress. The game as...

Bike Or Die 2 - Physics Bike Simulator

iTunes LinkBike or Die 2 is a bike simulation game by Chillingo Ltd. $6.99Think of buying everlasting fun for just $6.99 and you have this game. I mean, what else on the App Store gives you over 2,500 levels for you to play? Even though Lux Dlx takes a while to play, they only have 100 or so maps. This game is so fun and addictive. Doing a bit of research I found that this is a PDA/Cell Phone game originally, but this reminds me of some PC games that I have played on Tea Games. There are 14 pre-loaded level packs on the game with about 200 levels to complete, so it takes a while before you even need to download more packs. New levels in each...

iTunes LinkCrazy Hotdogs is a time management game by Com2Us Corp. $1.99Crazy Hotdogs is one of those games which is making its way into the top spots on the App Store like Sally's Salon, Diner Dash, Chocolate Shop Frenzy and Cooking Mama. These flash games are very popular at the moment and Crazy Hotdogs seems to be the hidden gem in the pack. Not many people would have heard of this game, but it is super addictive and provides quite a challenge. The story behind this game is that a mysterious person challenged you to sell $100,000 worth of hotdogs and you must take up that challenge and find out who issued the challenge.

The Com2Us Collection: Trapped: Undead Infection

iTunes LinkTrapped: Undead Infection is a survival shooter by Com2Us Corp. $1.99This game is an interesting one for me to review. I haven't seen many good reviews of the game, one example is was a 1 by Slide to Play. Being at $1.99 I find that it is a very fair price for what is available to do in the game, but for sure there are some elements which I can see that would turn off reviewers and gamers alike. I will talk more about these negatives later on but now for some fun parts of this game. It is basically a horror survival shooter where you are a scientist trapped in a large lab of some kind full of undead zombies. While you progress through...

The Com2Us Collection: Chronicles of Inotia: Legend of Feanor

iTunes LinkChronicles of Inotia: Legend of Feanor is a RPG game by Com2Us Corp. $7.99Chronicles of Inotia is everything I expect in a good RPG. It has quests, levels, multiple worlds, great graphics, lots of challenges and alot of grinding. This last point is an interesting one as some people buy RPG's like this and hate it, but it is 90% of the challenge and 90% of the gameplay. If there was no grinding in games like this they would be over in 30 minutes and you would feel like you wasted that $8. With only a handful of RPG's on the App Store, this one is the only RPG over the $5 price range. Gladly it deserves its price and is easily the best...

TouchGrind

iTunes LinkTouchGrind is a skating game by Illusion Labs. $4.99Just in time for the release of Illusion Labs brand new game, Sway, is our review of their premier game TouchGrind. This is by the opinion of someone who is not an avid skater, as I prefer sticking to water sports. I am pleased to say that this didn't impact on the amount of pleasure I had playing this game. Looking at trailers showing people using their fingers as feet on the board, I thought that there was no way it would work, it would be impossible to do. Picking this up and playing the warm up for the first time changed my opinion immediately. This game is pushing the boundaries...

Smack Boxing

iTunes LinkSmack Boxing is a boxing game by Full Control APS. $0.99This was an interesting one for me to review as previously played Iron Fist Boxing, it was hard not to compare the two. So I focus on what Smack Boxing is about I will quickly compare the two. Iron Fist is more superior in graphics but I believe the gameplay in Smack Boxing is better. Smack Boxing is a very fun boxing game that uses the touch screen capabilities quite well to convey the game. Recently a major update was released that easily increased how fun this game was, adding things to actually do instead of a quick arcade style fight. It is at the time of review at the sale...

Electrocute

iTunes LinkElectrocute is an arcade game by Full Control APS. $1.99To be honest my initial reaction to an arcade game like this was somewhere along of lines of, "Ugh!" I then played three levels and my opinion was completely changed. This game is really addictive and provides a great challenge which incorporates the multi touch system of the iDevices to perfection. In blatant terms the game is basically save the sheep from the evil UFO's. How do you do that I hear you ask? Well simple. Touch the screen with two fingers and between them a lightning bolt appears that kills anything that it hits, including sheep. As well as multiple power ups and...

Valentine's Day Special: Rate My Kiss

iTunes LinkRate My Kiss is a valentine app by Creative Coefficient Corp. $0.99The main purpose of your app is to improve your kissing. While the best practice is on real people, this app simulates it quite well. This app gives you a heap of different lips to practice on with surprisingly, difficulty levels! You get rated on each kiss out of five by how well your lips go onto the lips of the other persons. The difficulty levels just makes it so that you have to be more accurate to get that 5/5. While it sounds easy enough to do, getting your lips in the right place is quite hard with all the different shaped lips and a flat surface. There aren't...

GL Golf

iTunes LinkGL Golf is a golf game by Nuclear Nova Software. $5.99I really enjoyed this game as a golf simulation, which provided a realistic shots and ball movement. The first thing that got me interested in the lite version was that there was no person holding the club, which so far on the app store golf games have made them a real turn off. There are 6 challenging 18 hole golf courses to play around on in three difficulty modes which will really test how good you are. The deluxe version for just $4 more has a staggering 22 courses.The graphics in this game were recently improved in an update and makes the game look alot better than it was....

Textropolis

iTunes LinkTextropolis is a word game by Ian Marsh. $2.99Textropolis is a game which has a huge heap of content to keep you coming back for weeks. This fun game lets you create as many words as possible from the 30 nine letters long cities. The cities have a long list of words to find, ranging from 90 to 400 odd words. The competition heats up with the game allowing you to have multiple accounts for family rivalry. The addictive gameplay has no time limits so you can relax and take your time crossing off the words.Textropolis has brilliant graphics which I am disappointed to say don't get viewed as much as they should by myself. As you earn more...

Lux Dlx

iTunes LinkLux Dlx is a risk game by Sillysoft Games. $7.99Lux Dlx is the complete version of the free game, Lux Touch. While Lux Touch only featured the classic map and one level of difficulty, Lux Dlx features over 550 downloadable maps as well as the ability to change difficulty levels of every AI to a different level if it is what you want. The amount of options in this game really spoils you for choice as a majority of the maps require alot of thought for those who have a strategy downpacked to beat the classic map on Lux Touch. A few of the maps are already included in the game but a majority have to be downloaded in game. I am disappointed...

1112 Ep. 01

iTunes Link1112 Ep.01 is a click and search game by Aghartha Studios. $7.99If you want my opinion of this game in three words, here it is: I Love It. I absolutely love this game so much, this easily can take up to 10 hours to complete the game. 1112 (as I found out watching the AppVee video is pronounced eleven twelve) is a game similar to I Spy where you must find or complete tasks to find out what the next one it, except it follows a storyline with a great sense of humor. Everything in the game was hand drawn which impresses me alot, doing art my whole way through school I know how hard it is. This is the first or six episodes, with all coming...

Air Hockey

iTunes LinkAir Hockey is a sport game by Acceleroto. $0.99There are alot of Air Hockey games on the App Store, all fighting to be the best one. I am happy to say that this is the best out of 3 or 4 Air Hockey games that I have played. With 1 player mode ranging from Kiddie difficulty to Insane difficulty and 2 player mode, this game is alot of fun. Each mode has the option of original gameplay with 1 puck or the extra challenging game with two pucks! This game is the most realistic air hockey game so far.The game has awesome bright, polished graphics. Everything is done to perfection with its great design and easy use. The controls work really...

Imangi Word Squares

iTunes LinkImangi Word Squares is a word game by Imangi Studios. $0.99Imangi Word Squares is another entertaining word game by Imangi Studios. Like how Imangi had a similar style of play to the Rubik's Cube, I believe that Word Squares is the Sudoku of Word Games. Basically there are four levels available to play with different size grids, 3x3 -> 6x6. There are pre-placed letters and and movable letters which must be moved to make words. More about that later. This game is very well done and provides alot of fun, a great idea for a game.As with Imangi, the type of game doesn't really ask for many graphics, but what it has works for the game...

Imangi

iTunes LinkImangi is a word game by Imangi Studios. $1.99Imangi is a fun game that will make you think and challenge your mind. For me I think that this is the Rubiks cube of word games. Basically the game forces you to drag rows of letters horizontally and vertically to create as many words as you can. This may sound simple but provides quite a challenge. There are four game modes to play, with only one of these being a timed challenge. Even when you are moving the pieces around the screen the game doesn't give away what words are made, stopping people take the easy way out.There isn't much needed in the way of the graphics apartment but it...

Perilar

iTunes LinkPerilar is a Tactical Strategy game by Mark Damon Hughes. $4.99I am a big fan of RPG's so I was interested to see how it matched up to my expectations. Perilar is a challenging old school RPG set in a magical kingdom. The goal in the game is to save the kingdom from the evil monsters that were set into the grounds. There is only one difficulty level but don't be fooled with that as if you stray too far without leveling up you will die and have to restart where you last saved, if you have before you can say Ouch!The graphics give the old school feel with simple 2D graphics which we used to find on games in the 1980's. While my preference...

Whack 'Em All

iTunes LinkWhack 'Em All is a targeting game by Fairlady Media. $0.99/FreeThis game has a story to how it became free. When Fairlady Media heard that Whack 'Em All had been jailbroken they decided to respond to the people who did it by making a free, ad supported version. This is a very fun game which makes you focus on every small corner of the screen. There are nine levels of gameplay to try and complete, but there are no difficulty levels as they gradually get harder as you progress. There are six different characters which have their own personality which is a great change from Whack 'Em All games with exactly the same characters.The graphics...

Crazy Tanks

iTunes LinkCrazy Tanks is a shooting game by Bootant. $0.99I have played quite a few of Bootant's games and this is my favorite by far. Bootant is essentially a full on war inside an arena. For each of the 30 levels there are a number of tanks and towers which you must track down using the map down the bottom right hand corner and kill them. They will also shoot at you and if you lose health it takes you back to the start, but the tanks already destroyed, stay destroyed. I will talk more about the gameplay later on. This game is addictive fun and I can see why it got to the No.1 game on the App Store.The graphics in this game as so good for a...

Superbowl Sunday Special: PocketSports Football

iTunes LinkPocketSports Football is a Football game by Solus Games. $4.99This special fast tracked review is in honor of the Superbowl XLIII between the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. PS Football is the first real football game I have seen on the App Store. This is a very good game by Solus which really delivers NFL to the iPhone. The game has two game modes, quicky and league. Quicky is a quick game where you choose how long the quarters go for, 1, 2 or 3 minutes and your team and the opposition. League mode gives you a full league where you choose which team you will play with and the length of the quarters. Currently league...

Cartoonizme

iTunes LinkCartoonizme is a photo editing app by Portegno Apps. $0.99Cartoonizme is a very entertaining app which I spent hours with photos of my friends to make them a person with a stupid hairstyle and a huge mouth. This app is made to pimp out photos of yourself and your friends. This app and its sister app, Wanted serve this purpose very well and Cartoonizme actually make the pictures look like they are straight out from a cartoon show. Unlike Wanted, there are no words around the outside of the picture, but you can add a speech bubble with writing in it or custom made logos. There are alot of options able to be added to the picture which...
