Rating: EDGE Extended Review: A super-minimalist, futuristic looking, simple in concept, difficult in execution game of accelerometer skill. EDGE Extended {$.99} doesn’t fit into any category that I know of; I’ve not seen the likes of it before. I suppose it’s a bit like Monkey Ball in a cube format. Though the instructions say to use your finger to move … Read More

Super Dynamite Fishing FREE Review: Embrace The Redneck Sportsman In You
Rating: Super Dynamite Fishing FREE Review: A fun spoof of a game sure to bring out the redneck sportsman in you. I’m not going to speak to the morals of making a game of the illegal practice of fishing with dynamite – you can use the comments for that. But as far as games go this one is a good … Read More

The Dungeon Saga HD Review: An Engrossing Mashup of World of Warcraft and Bejeweled
Rating: The Dungeon Saga HD Review: The game is a mix of World of Warcraft and Bejeweled – which sounds impossible, but is a lot of fun. The interface is familiar to World of Warcraft (WoW) players. It starts with a nice “cinematic” that sets the stage. Then several screens of instructions explain the various parts of the game and … Read More

‘reflow’ Review: Difficult to Describe, Easy to Grasp, Challenging to Play
Rating: reflow uses your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad’s camera to turn the world around you into a game. It displays objects as an abstract black and white image.

Rating: Having lived through electronic gaming since it all started with the Binatone gaming system I’m all for a little bit of retro gaming action and while ChocoRun is not a port of a previously released game it’s 8bit styling certainly is.

‘Sonic & Sega All Star Racing’ Review Console Quality Racing for iPhone and iPad
Rating: Most of the time when I write a review I want the reader, i.e. you, to read the whole article, making you wait until the end to decide whether or not to get the game.

Rating: ‘RC Plane 2′ allows you to pilot a RC plane across the Italian landscape while following flight paths, collecting coins, and improving your skills and equipment.
