    Zenonia 3 Review

    By

    Being an orphan is tough: you just can't catch a break. When you're growing up, you have to put up with endless abuse from the local bullies. Then, it always turns out that you're destined to save the world. It's just work, work, work. Chael, the star of Zenonia 3, has to deal with all of this, but it also turns out that he's the heir to a heroic dynasty. Like its predecessors, the game is a lot of fun, but the series is starting to reach the point where it feels a little redundant.

    Gears Review

    By

    It's been a while since a decent ball-rolling puzzle game was released for the iPhone, and it's pretty safe to say that Crescent Moon Games isn't the developer that you might expect to put out such a title. But now this studio that's well-known for making epic RPGs can say that it's put out a pretty epic ball-rolling title, too, thanks to its latest game in the App Store, Gears.

    Army of Darkness Defense Preview

    By

    Army of Darkness is the franchise that just won't die (which, come to think of it, is oddly appropriate given its setting). Even though the movie was released back in 1993, it still retains a massive cult following, has received a number of popular comic adaptations, and has been translated into various video games. Now it's getting set to debut for iOS devices with Army of Darkness: Defense.

    Coin Drop! Review

    By

    Full Fat seems incapable of putting a bad game out on the App Store. Titles like Flick Golf! and Zombie Flick have earned the developer a lot of love. Full Fat's latest title, Coin Drop, continues the quality trend, though it's pretty different from the company's previous games.

    Samurai Girl Review

    By

    Hikaru is having a bad day. When she woke up this morning, she was a mystical princess who lived in a fantastic castle. By dinner-time, though, she was homeless, fatherless, and suffering from a serious case of revenge. Needless to say, Samurai Girl starts out pretty intense and doesn't let up.

    Pulse: Volume One Preview

    By

    Developer Cipher Prime recently made some waves at the Game Developers Conference when it showed off Pulse, an upcoming music game for the iPad. While music titles haven't exactly been super successful on the platform, the developer is banking on the idea that what the genre needs is a different type of game. As a result, Pulse is pretty much unlike anything else that's on the market.

    Tap The Frog Review

    By

    Porting web games to iOS devices is big business these days, and it seems like every addicting title is getting such treatment. Enter Tap the Frog, which is based on the popular Flash game, Click the Frog. It requires player to tap on frogs as quickly as they possibly can. While it's certainly cute and enjoyable, the game is also fairly disposable and doesn't really hold any lasting appeal.

    Wouldn't you know it? You just woke up and you're starving. Not only that, but there's no food in the house. That means it's time to drop on down to your web, and grab the fly you managed to catch, and cook it up like a Thanksgiving turkey. Oh, in case you're wondering: you're a spider, and you're starring in Chillingo's new game Spider Jack.
