    Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? Review

    By

    I spent a good chunk of my younger days chasing one single woman. I wanted her, bad, but always seemed a step or two behind her. For years I chased her from city to city, jet hopping around the world, and at some point even through time. I thought I finally outgrew the chase, but suddenly out of nowhere she showed back up on Facebook, and like that the chase is back on. I'm coming for you, Carmen Sandiego!

    Medieval Battlefields Review

    By

    The turn based strategy game has been a mainstay on videogame consoles for many years. Over that time they've gotten significantly more complex, but the vibe has largely stayed the same. Sid Meier's Civilization series is probably the most popular, and it's certainly the best when it comes to showing what the genre is capable of. Medieval Battlefields, on the other hand, finds itself on the opposite end of that spectrum.

    At this point I shouldn't be, but I'm still surprised when a puzzle game comes along that has a fresh take on the genre. This expectation of mine probably stems from the fact that, for a very long time, puzzle game basically meant Tetris. Though it's true that I love Tetris, I also love variety. Lucky for me the iOS has almost provided us puzzle fans with a renaissance of the genre, with new territory being broken in every direction.

    Glow Artisan Review

    Glow Artisan is a really fantastic name for a puzzle game that revolves around using primary colors to create secondary colors in particular patterns. At the beginning of every stage you're shown a graph with different blocks, each filled in with different colors. Your task is to use a color palette of red, blue and yellow to combine them into greens, purples and more in an effort to match the picture given in as few moves as possible.

    Dead Space Review

    By

    In space, no one can hear you scream. I kind of hope the same is true for whimpering, since while playing Dead Space last night I was definitely doing my fair share of that. Turns out playing this game in the dark while wearing headphones is enough to freak out a man in his 30's. It's not something I'm proud of, but it happened nonetheless. Luckily I was thoroughly entertained while being scared.

    Jump & Slide Review

    By

    One of the first iOS games that I absolutely fell head over heels for was Canabalt. The combination of simplicity and style really made playing it a memorable experience. It was also the first time that I had to admit to myself that the touchscreen could provide an optimum control scheme (having seen many poor ports I was still skeptical). Jump & Slide ups the complexity a tiny bit and changes up art style but provides that same fantastic experience.

    Seems like there's a doodle-anything based game on the App store these days, and I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that developers are running out of ideas. Doodle Jump, Doodle Find, Doodle Kart, Doodle Devil. Doodle this and Doodle that, better knock this off and get to the review before this gets Seussian, complete with doodle hat!
