The best selling book by The New York Times Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is soon to be released on the iPhone and iPod Touch. Freeverse [news.freeverse.com] announced yesterday they have been asked to produce the game. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, basically follows the story of Elizabeth Darcy and her love life, mixed in with gory battles with zombies during the Regency period.

The game features 2.5D graphics with romance scenes and zombie slaying, great for any zombie fanatic. It also features the chance to compete online via the support of the popular social network plus+. There is no mention yet on Freeverse’s website whether the game will have any in-app purchases or whether it will be a fully paid game.

I’m not sure how popular this game may become, it seems at the moment there are a huge amount of zombie killing and slaying games available. I think that it is quite possible many gamers have had all they can take when it comes to fighting zombies and body parts flying around their screen. Although it does have a slightly different take on the actual story compared to some but at the end of the day it is just another zombie game.

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies iPhone_1

The game will be released in April. Freeverse also said that the game annoucement comes at the same time that the publishers have released a prequel to the book, the new title is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls! So who knows Freeverse may even grace us with a second zombie playing game. What fun!

What do you think, have we had our fair share of zombie slaying games?

Mainstream Gaming Coming To iPad?

Sega recently revealed a new cross-platform Sonic the Hedgehog coming to all of the major platforms this summer. It will be an episodic download that returns us to all of the Sonic fun and mayhem we remember from the early 90’s. What piqued TUAW’s interest was the screenshot at the end of the trailer for the new game. In the usual spot, all of the platforms are listed in addition to a blank square. TUAW conjectures this blank square will eventually be occupied by an App Store icon.

Could this signal a move by the mainstream gaming houses to acknowledge the iPad as a legitimate gaming platform? Certainly recent comments by Nintendo President Satoru Iwata and Sony’s John Koller have struck a dismissive cord about the iPad as gaming device. Were their comments borne out of hubris or a genuine belief the iPad will not flourish as a gaming device? Regardless of which is the case, you can’t ignore the acknowledgement by Sega implicit in releasing the same game to the Wii, Xbox 360, PS/3, and the iPad. By releasing the same game to all four platforms you are equating them and that will do wonders for upping the iPad’s gaming credentials. It’s true that Sega has released games for the iPhone in the past but these have been purpose-built and specific to the platform. If you’re a proud iPad owner and you show your friend the same Sonic game they’re playing on their limited and gaming-only console, you’ve just provided the word of mouth advertising Apple hopes the first generation iPad owners will give.

As the rest of the year unfolds, it will be interesting to see how the mainstream gaming industry reacts to the iPad. Will it avoid it like the complete threat to their dominance it is or embrace it and welcome it into the fold of mainstream consoles? Would you like to see your favorite games released simultaneously to all three major consoles and the iPad? Will mobile gaming, lead by the iPad, eventually choke out fixed consoles?

There are a number of iPhone games that use music as a backdrop for game play. Tapulous’ popular Tap Tap Revenge series immediately comes to mind. The thing about games like Tap Tap Revenge is that they require you to buy content to play with which, on an iPhone full of music, might seem like a needless expense. The upcoming game Tune Runner from Appy Entertainment takes a more revolutionary path, using your existing music library as the in-game content.

In Tune Runner, the player must make their way through various environments by drawing the shapes that move from right to left on the screen. Successfully draw the shape through touch on the screen and your robot Grov-ee continues on his journey, unsuccessfully draw the shape and your robot loses a little bit of his life. If you miss enough shapes your life meter drains and your mission is over. As I alluded to in the beginning though, Tune Runner’s revolutionary aspect is in the creation of the game environment. Tune Runner scans the music on your iPhone and for each level played you select a song. The game then generates the level dynamically based on that song. Every level is different, no two plays are ever the same. Even two plays on the same song are different.

Tune Runner for iPhone also implements some nice extras in addition to the solid game play. Tune Runner implements full OpenFeint support with global high scores and achievements. Additionally, after you complete a song, your score is submitted against all other scores for that song. This is an interesting twist on social gaming since usually overall global high score is usually king.

The other interesting extra is how game play and game price are connected. Instead of pasting banner ads to every empty space in the application or charging more for the game, Tune Runner takes another approach. Each new game is allotted a certain number of plays of the game. To earn more plays of the game the user can either purchase them or earn them the Recharge mini-game. Purchasing them is a straightforward proposition. The Recharge mini-game is a little bit more interesting. Play is the same as the main game but instead of Grov-ee, a battery is displayed. Each shape that is successfully drawn places a bit more energy in the battery. When the battery reaches full charge an additional play is earned. To subsidize this, banner ads are displayed during the Recharge mini-game which is a small price to pay for this fun little mini-game and additional plays of the game.

I look forward to playing the final version of Tune Runner. It looks to be an innovative game with a fun and interesting interface. I think Appy has a winner on its hands.

Mobile gaming is all about the ability to pick up and play a game and that’s not always possible with an in depth RPG, however, that may have just changed with Caligo Chaser from Com2uS.

You take the roll of a young knight who in order to repay a debt takes on the task of solving cases and builds his skills and abilities. While the story may not be the strongest aspect of the game it’s told with a degree of humor that keeps things moving along well enough. As with most games of this style the story is told via text but with the ability of being able to fast forward through the text it means that you won’t get bogged down.

A virtual d-pad and action button are all you need for the game itself and other than the d-pad being a little unforgiving at times the controls work well. The same can not be said for the navigation menu’s which in it’s current beta release are too small to navigate easily. The graphics are anime style and while they may not be ground breaking they also don’t detract from the game itself while the sound effects and music are your standard RPG variety.

Winning the battles can usually be achieved by your standard button bashing however that’s not going to make your progression through the game. Winning the battles using a variety of attacks, combo’s and speed will improve your ranking and earn you bigger points and rewards. Your rewards and points can be used to for items which in turn can be combined for even bigger, better and more powerful items which as you progress through the land will be more and more essential to your success.

If you’ve played similar games before you are going to be perfectly at home here and yet for a newcomers to the genre the difficulty level increases at a smooth pace which makes it feel the first few quests feel like a basic tutorial.

Caligo Chaser, even in the beta release, is a challenging and engaging RPG and it should ensure the Com2us’s success in the App Store continues where it left off.

Com2us have already produced some of the App Store’s big successes especially with Homerun Battle 3D (our review) and Sniper Vs Sniper Online which show how iPhone/iPod touch gaming should be done. So when they bring out a new game there is always going to be a buzz. Their latest title which is currently in closed beta testing is Heavy Gunner, a 3D inter-galactic shoot-em up.

As we’ve come to expect with Com2us games the graphics of the navigation menu’s and in game are gorgeous and navigating through the menu’s is a breeze with the slick military style screens.

The controls have been well implemented, controlling your movement and aim is done via the accelerometer which can be re-calibrated at anytime making it easy to play as you move around and change position without having to have the neck of a contortionist! During the game itself your two weapons are controlled via two large buttons in the bottom right and left hand corner of the screen. You’re aim can be controlled simply by using the accelerometer itself, however for increased accuracy you can also move your thumbs on the fire buttons to move your aim too.

The are two different game modes to choose from, the first is Campaign mode where your task is to make your way through 35 levels of intense action as you defend yourself and humanity against a seemingly never-ending supply of alien craft. Challenge mode meanwhile sets you different challenges where you can compare your best scores to other players via the online leader-boards.

As you complete each level you will be rewarded with points that you can use to not only upgrade your existing weapon which is a pretty affective gattling gun but also purchase new weapons including plasma guns, an EMP shockwave and a Avenger heavy machine gun. In total there are 8 guns to work you way through and upgrade while you can also upgrade your Integrated Combat Platform, which is your combat machine in which are are based.

As mentioned previously the game-play comes thick and fast, however while this is great it also leads to the games biggest problem, namely a slow-down in the frame rate when the action gets particularly fraught and unfortunately the action packed pace of the game is one of it’s selling points so for it to suffer slow-down is a major disappointment. However, with each beta release this has been greatly improved and if this continues before the full version is released the problem should be all but gone.

If you are a fan of shoot-em ups you are not going to be disappointed with Heavy Gunner, there is plenty of content, online leader boards, social networking integration and 3 levels of difficulty to keep you going for a longtime.

Today ngmoco shared details about their upcoming iPhone game called GodFinger. The game has been developed in collaboration with Wonderland Software who have worked on Black & White and Fable series

As the title suggests you will assume the role of a deity and your goal will be to secure followers so that their worship helps you get stronger.

Pull on the gloves of a fledgling deity. You’re in charge of your very own planet, and must flex your fingers if you’re going to make a name for yourself amongst the pantheon of gods in this universe.

You’ll need followers. Their worship will help you grow stronger, perform wonders and learn new abilities. You’ll zap, flood and terraform. You’ll create buildings to keep your followers busy; they’ll give you gold. You’ll exterminate skeletons. And for fun, you’ll even torment your planet’s denizens.

GodFinger will be available on App Store soon and we will be keeping a close eye on this upcoming title.

Does the description remind you of Populous on the Commodore Amiga?

The game has already become very popular even before its release, it has entered the final stage of testing and will  be submitted to Apple later this week.

The most interesting twist about Guerrilla Bob is that John Gore, star of Minigore is joining Guerrilla Bob for some one on one shoot out action.

The developers have also made some changes to the background story of Guerrilla Bob (read the old story)

Guerrilla Bob Story

It all started with two best friends. Bob and John Gore have been friends since they were 10, and continued to be best buddies through high school, and then through college.

Eventually, Bob decided to enroll in the army, while John Gore chose a life of crime and money.

Bob got great achievements and got promotion after promotion, until he got to be a national hero.

Jealous of his success, John Gore set him up so that Bob would look like a corrupt soldier. So Bob was kicked out of the army.

With nothing left to do, Bob decided to get REVENGE, and became a rebel.
From then on, he would go by the name Guerrilla Bob. One day, Bob found that the army had a plan to nuke the place where his old friend John Gore had his troops. He sabotaged the plan, so he’d go in by himself and hunt them down one by one.

Cogs is one of the most stylish and sophisticated mind bending puzzle game you might ever come across for an iPhone. Almost every other request at Touch Reviews being a puzzle game (Match 3 puzzles!) Cogs proved to be a surprisingly pleasant change and a new take on the puzzle game genre. PC version of Cogs has already been a success and if you play a few levels (download free demo) you will begin to realize that this game reflects high quality and its design creates a fantastic gaming experience.

The main object is to solve puzzles which are presented as parts of machines and need to be connected in order to make the machine functional. Machines comprise of various gadgets which include gears, pipes, hammers, chimes, balloons and much more. Players will be able to choose from 50 levels and 3 gameplay modes.

Cogs is much more than just a puzzle game. If you love puzzle games or ever wanted to build a machine and see it work this is the perfect game for you.

Mirror’s Edge Backstory

In a city where information is heavily monitored, agile couriers called Runners transport sensitive data away from prying eyes. In this seemingly utopian paradise, a crime has been committed and now you are being hunted. You are a Runner called Faith – and this innovative first-person action-adventure is your story.

Mirror’s Edge™ delivers you straight into the shoes of this unique heroine as she traverses the vertigo-inducing cityscape, engaging in intense combat and fast paced chases. With a never before seen sense of movement and perspective, you will be drawn into Faith’s world. A world that is visceral, immediate, and very dangerous. Live or die? Soar or plummet? One thing is certain, in this city, you will learn how to run.
