Livin’ on the EDGE


Review by Nacho

edge-iconFinally a Marble Maze type game that doesn’t suck, EDGE, is in the App Store now.

Edge won the Milthon award for Best Mobile Game of 2008 at the Festival du Jeu Video, Paris and is nominated for the Excellence in Gameplay award at the International Mobile Gaming Award competition. It’s clear in your first few moments of EDGE that these accolades are well deserved.

Come with me as we journey to the EDGE, and back.

Toy bot 3 released


TBD3 officially launched on the App Store last night. The 3rd and final instalment of the game is based in space and sees Toy bot face to face with his arch-nemesis. The gameplay is similar to the last two games, but with new challenges and more varied level design, such as a weightless deep space level.

i(Phone) love Katamari!


I was surprised this morning to find that Namco have released the much loved ‘i Love Katamari’ for iPhone. But thinking about it, it’s an obvious fit for the iPhone. There’s a crazy story involving the King of all cosmos and his prince, but at it’s basic it’s a game where you must tilt the iPhone to roll a sticky ball around various environments picking up objects as your ball gets bigger and bigger.

Snail mail review


Review by Nigel Wood

Take a slice of Sonic 2’s special 3D bonus stages, mix with a pinch of Mario Kart’s Rainbow Road, add half a pound of escargot, a teaspoon of racer, a shot of platformer and a handful of prepared silky smooth tilt controls, bring to the boil, sieve and serve. No this isn’t Gordon Ramsey’s latest culinary creation but an exercise in how to make one of the most enjoyable games on iPhone. [Read more →]

Toy Bot 3… the conclusion


Not long after the release of Toy Bot 2 comes the final episode in trilogy, Toy Bot 3. Hot on the trail of his enemy, Toy Bot sets a course much closer to home; Planet Bot.  In order to confront his nemesis once and for all, our bite-sized hero must first traverse the expanses of space and befriend new allies. Time is running out to save Earth from War Bot’s latest weapon. But fortunately for us humans, Toy Bot still has a few tricks up his sleeve!

TBD3 is planned for release next week. We have an early build of the game in hand, so look for a hands on around the time of release. Stay tuned!
