Gomi Review
Gomi puts players in control of a happy red ball as you try to clean up the world. The gameplay is similar to Katamari Damacy as the more objects you roll up, the bigger you get, allowing you to roll up larger items and grow more .etc. The controls are simple enough, tilt your iPhone to move your Gomi and tap the screen to jump. But the speed at which your Gomi rolls and changes direction is far too slow to give players any challenge in regards to movement or to keep players intereste…

Lifeboat Review
If someone asked you to balance a dinner plate on your hand; then placed a bunch of marbles that have their own individual take on the concept of gravity on the plate; then they asked you to kindly manage to balance the plate in just the right way to cause them to fall in to pockets on the side of the plate; you'd have a fair idea of what to expect with Lifeboat by Fuel Games. As the captain of the boat it's your duty to roll the ship's deck around to assist your oddly rotund set of p…

Chewie Chu Review
Chewie Chu, published by Ludigames, is a well presented and interesting action puzzle platformer that challenges players with timed levels and physics based solutions - but there's no escaping the fact that it is also a very frustrating game to play. Your aim is to unlock the exit by moving your worm via slingshot from wherever he's currently anchored into switches, edible bugs etc. A lot of time and patience needs to be given to learning the controls (despite being fairly easy to pic…

Space Invaders Infinity Gene Review
You'd be forgiven for thinking that this game was just another attempt to return to a classic game and just give it a new twist, because you'd be wrong. Space Invaders Infinity Gene by Taito isn't just a rehash of an old game, it's a new game all in itself. Taito may have arguably started the popular trend for shoot-em-ups and Infinity Gene is almost like watching the genre come full circle. Instead of opting for tilt-controls to free the screen entirely, Infinity Gene allows a player…
