iPhone App Video Review: Robot Unicorn Attack 2

Right off the bat, I'm not sure this game will have the same "lightning in a bottle" popularity the original did. It's a massive sequel that adds new features, customization options, different levels, and lots of community based integration. It's much more of a traditional game now, and extremely po ...

iPhone App Video Review: Temple Run 2

We’re now running on a magnificent mountain sky temple instead of a foggy old swamp, with one large demonic skull-faced gorilla to outrun instead of several small ones. Your pathway is no longer completely straight, either. Dips, rises, and bends mixed in with normal obstacles and ledges, often ob ... Full Article »

iPhone App Video Review: Punch Quest

Instead of a standard jump button, you'll be dash-punching and upper-cutting your way through swathes of enemies in an action-packed sprint. Skeletons, zombies, imps, ogres, and more comprise your fist fodder. Each run starts you off at level one, with you leveling up as you play, along with your en ... Full Article »

iPhone App Video Review: Rayman Jungle Run

The game is split into four worlds with ten levels each, and each world introduces a new power. Rayman starts off jumping, but soon he's gliding, wall-running, zip lining and punching, and the level design just builds and builds off of itself. Most actions are context sensitive, so the controls stay ... Full Article »

Banzai Blade slices through genres but to what effect?

If forced to pick a favorite genre of iPhone game, I’d probably run and hide, there are simply too many strong choices out there. That said, “endless runners,” games you could conceivably play forever in an effort to rack up the longest distance or score, would be near the top of my list. Add ... Full Article »

Finding evolution among Temple Run clones

Last year, Temple Run hit the scene and it immediately took off. Developer Imangi Studios had a pretty brilliant idea – take the endless runner genre, one that was full of titles that were pretty much the same, and take it from two dimensions to three. The result was a game that saw a big spike o ... Full Article »

You can leave Mutant Roadkill on the pavement

There’s a pretty interesting game on the surface of Mutant Roadkill. An endless driving game with unique objectives, the primary of which being “run over all the zombies,” seems like a fun concept. In execution, it feels less enjoyable than it should. That’s partially due to the glacial pac ... Full Article »

iPhone App Video Review: Escape from Age of Monsters

You play as Gizzard, the surrogate older brother of several orphan children. After being backed into a corner, two mysterious and powerful gauntlets, one red and one blue, present themselves to Gizzard, who is desperate and stupid enough to use them. He then begins fleeing from the monsters, punchin ... Full Article »

iPhone App Video Review: Ski Safari

Ski Safari is wonderfully absurd. After an avalanche hits your mountain cabin and sends you careening downhill in your bed, your adventure begins. I guess this character sleeps with his skis on, and it doesn’t take long to switch over. You simply have to keep up enough speed to outrun this massive ... Full Article »

iPhone App Video Review: On The Wind

Basically, it looks like David played ThatGameCompany's PlayStation Network exclusive Flower and decided to make it 2D, and to replace flower petals with leaves. I have no problems with this, and think it's actually a really cool concept. In the game, you have to deal with dying leaves and the harsh ... Full Article »
