    ZOOKEEPER DX Touch Edition Review

    By

    Attention, Zoo patrons! The animals have escaped! But, whatever you do, DO NOT PANIC! Remain calm! Do not run! Do not feed the animals! And, do not take a video with your cell phone and post it on YouTube! We have a trained zoo keeper who is handling this temporary holding issue and will have the situation soon under control. However, if you don't like your kids all that much, it should be noted that he hasn't gotten things under control over at the Lion Sanctuary (seriously, we saw those brats throwing a temper tantrum because you wouldn't buy them any ice cream; nobody would blame you).

    Async Corp. Review

    Anyone who's worked in Corporate America can tell you that there's nothing more hellish than working in a cubicle, crunching numbers and dealing with data packets. However, Async Corp., a new title for the iPhone, aims to take cubicle jobs and make them be actually enjoyable. Surprisingly, it does a pretty admirable job of pulling off this particular feat.

    Hills of Glory: WWII Review

    By

    So there I was: stuck at the top of the hill, with nothing but my rifle to protect me and my wits to keep me calm. Coming towards me were more men and tanks than I'd ever seen. As the odds became more overwhelming, I became increasingly frantic, attacking the soldiers more and more recklessly. And then, without warning, it became too much and I was overrun. Naturally,I wanted to take another crack at my opponents, so I booted up the same level in Hills of Glory: WWII, a great new defense game on the iPhone.

    Paper Munchers Review

    By

    Once upon a time, there were a bunch of little paper monsters who sat around a lot. They didn't move, they didn't do anything productive, and they generally just got in the way. And then, one day, the Paper Munchers showed up with their huge mouths and razor teeth.

    Cell Bound Review

    Every now and then, a game comes along for the iPhone that is simply wonderful. Hothead Games, the folks behind bigger-budget Penny Arcade Adventures and Deathspank games, should be proud of the fact that their new title for the iPhone, Cell Bound, completely fits into this category. This is one of those titles that manages to get just about everything right, and it does so with brilliant simplicity.

    Did you know that ping-pong, once upon a time, served as the ice-breaker between Communist China and the United States in the 1970s? It's true: the U.S. and China sent ping-pong players to each others' countries, which paved the way for Richard Nixon's diplomatic visit to Beijing in 1972. In short, ping-pong helped change the world, and now you can play it on your iPhone with World Cup Table Tennis.

    If there's one thing that Hollywood's taught us, it's that the zombie apocalypse is going to happen sooner or later. What hasn't been demonstrated in the movies, though, is just how gosh-darned cute said apocalypse is going to be. Thankfully, Riptide Games' upcoming pet sim My Pet Zombie is going to set the record straight.
