Kalahari Sun Slots Review

Review 616 Digital LLC By Myles McKinnon, 15 years, 5 months ago
Kalahari Sun Slots Review

Kalahari Sun is a slot machine app available for the iphone and ipod touch. Starting with only $500 you must test your luck to better your bankroll. The controls for this game are fiddly and it is difficult to pinpoint certain options in the menu. The increase and decrease bet buttons are quite small and if you gamble your winnings at the roulette table then accurately placing a bet becomes difficult if not impossible. Where this game fails in functionality it makes up for in the vis…

TriDefense Review

Review Kalio Ltda. By Andrew Nesvadba, 15 years, 5 months ago
TriDefense Review

Tower and castle defense is a genre that continues to explode on the iPhone thanks to its intuitive touch interface, so there's little room for any new games that bring nothing exciting or new to the genre. TriDefense by Kalio fails to be an outstanding product amongst others available on iTunes, but does bring a mechanic that may tip fans of the genre over. TriDefense has learned well from its predecessors and has implemented a fairly fool-proof system of dropping, finalising and upg…

Fantastic Contraption Review

Review inXile Entertainment By Andrew Nesvadba, 15 years, 6 months ago
Fantastic Contraption Review

Physics based games tend to make use of its physics in a fairly limited way, with puzzle elements that respond to movement and so on, but ultimately they're artificially limited so there's a finite amount of solutions. Fantastic Contraption does everything to defy this practice and challenges you to not merely complete levels, but to engineer utterly unique solutions to its problems. Your aim is to move a piece from one area in to a scoring zone by any means necessary using the tools…

Air Master 3D Review

Review Alex Nankervis By Andrew Nesvadba, 15 years, 6 months ago
Air Master 3D Review

Flight sims on the iPhone have been a somewhat risky proposition because they live or die by their ability to control an aircraft fluidly while still being able to let a gamer see what's happening. Air Master 3D by Alex Nankervis doesn't manage to make the cut as a flight sim shoot-em-up for this reason even if there is a nugget of gold hidden within. Players will find themselves tilting their craft around their island zone, though despite some thorough customisation options for these…

Mega Hearts 2 Slots Review

Review 616 Digital LLC By Andrew Nesvadba, 15 years, 6 months ago
Mega Hearts 2 Slots Review

Mega Hearts 2 Slots by Pokie Magic may be a bit cutesy as a slot machine goes, but it's fun, visually bright and clear and features a surprisingly generous set of special features. Control is fairly limited, using simple buttons to control the entire game. It's possible to even allow the game to play independent of the player by using the "autoplay" feature, though that prevents players from accessing the gamble or roulette options available in Pokie Magic games. Roulette is controlle…

X-Plane Extreme Review

Review Laminar Research By Beau Burtenshaw, 15 years, 6 months ago
X-Plane Extreme Review

The X-Plane series for iPhone has always offered a top quality flying experience. Like its predecessors, X-Plane Extreme delivers once again however this time with long awaited addition of combat aircraft. As with other X-Plane titles, X-Plane Extreme takes full advantage of the iPhones built in accelerometers for its flight controls.

Stand O’Food® (Full) Review

Review G5 Entertainment AB By Andrew Nesvadba, 15 years, 6 months ago
Stand O’Food®  (Full) Review

Stand O'Food by G5 Entertainment attempts to mesh puzzle gaming with the popular time management genre, but ultimately feels like it comes off as second-rate for each instead of the unique genre it tries to create. It's an unforgiving game in terms of difficulty, but if you're having fun you might just let it slide while you whip up your latest food sensation. The game is driven entirely by touch controls to select ingredients in order, adding sauces or putting your creation in a box…
