This version of Parachute Panic really brings the goods! While we felt that the game was overly difficult originally, we felt that the added easy mode in version 1.1 was too easy to be any fun while the main game remained unchanged. Luckily, some tinkering with the original formula led the crew over at FDG […]
Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend us your ears: Ben Hur Live isn’t so hot. It doesn’t suckus maximus, but it’s a pretty poor racing game with just a few identical tracks and little of the excitement that a chariot race set in a coliseum should provide. We come not to praise Ben Hur Live, but to […]
I first got a look at Five Minutes to Kill Yourself [Link] as part of an oddly secretive preview from the folks at Adult Swim. With the game’s impending release in the near future, now is finally the time to pull the cover off Adult Swim’s latest iPhone adaptation of yet another one of their […]
Captain Binary – Twin Bottles Captain Binary has the sort of chin that only a superhero could carry. Not that he’s lacking in other necessary credentials, though relying on a gun for defence may be a bit of a taboo in his line of work. Not that you should let that bother you as captain […]
It’s close to Halloween so surely time for a Stephen King tie-in on the App Store? Indeed, Paramount has dug up an old film licence, providing us with a Pet Cemetery game. Stephen King should be spinning in his bed. Granted Pet Cemetery isn’t one of his best books, and the film wasn’t all that […]
Should we be teaching iPhone gamers how to set explosives and demolish buildings in apps that use realistic physics? Hell, yeah.

Bailout Wars first came to our attention back in August for its topical twist to the castle defence formula. Unlike the long, drawn out recession, it’s short, sweet, and won’t break the bank. The game puts you in charge of defending the White House and protecting taxpayers’ money from greedy bankers. As you flick away […]
We’re sure there are plenty of ways the line-drawing genre can expand in future. The latest game – 33rd Division – brings an interesting twist into play. It’s set in WWII, but your role is non-aggressive, as you have to escort Allied soldiers through various enemy patrols and defensive positions to safety. There are three […]
Eidos Interactive and Dynamo Games have combined again to create Championship Manager 2010 for iPhone, which is out now on the App Store. Last season’s effort, Championship Manager 2009, didn’t live up to most people’s expectations – largely because it was a conversion of the Symbian release. As any football manager will tell you when […]
