    As someone who grew up watching Charles Bronson flicks, I know that vengeance is a dish best served cold. EA Mobile, though, is setting out to prove that revenge is a dish that also tastes great when it's served on an adorable platter, courtesy of its new iOS title Fly With Me!

    If you're like me, you probably spend a lot of time on Twitter. Aside from mundane things — like when we announce we've arrived at a restaurant or club — we also tweet about all the goofy/crazy stuff we see. But what happens when our tweets become part of a game's world? The upcoming racing title Tweet Land is going to show the results, and they look delightfully crazy.

    If the movie Labyrinth taught us anything, it's that you have to take matters into your own hands when your kid brother gets stolen by goblins (well, that and how David Bowie makes everything he touches awesome). Kids vs. Goblins continues this trend, though it looks like there'll be a lot more monster-fighting — as opposed to catchy musical numbers — this time around.

    RoboHero Review

    It's never easy taking a stand against your own people. Just ask Robo, the goofy little robot starring in RoboHero. You see, Robo's realized he'd rather work with humanity — as opposed to his fellow droids (who happen to be invading Earth). Even though this is a dangerous move, it's also a ton of fun, and provides one of the most memorable strategy experiences to come to iOS devices.

    Time of Heroes Review

    By

    I'm a huge strategy fan. Have been for as long as I've been gaming. I love how every time I'm on the battlefield, things seem to work out a bit differently. I love how no two skirmishes ever feel the same. And I really love it when a game gives me a good mental workout. Unfortunately, most mobile strategy titles don't feature anywhere near the depth that you're likely to find on their PC counterparts. That said, strategy fans may want to check out Time of Heroes on iOS devices. It's not perfect, but this genuinely feels like the closest thing to a PC strategy game on a mobile platform.

    Stop me if you've heard this before. There's magic in the world, and it's a lot more commonplace than one might think. Three children who are attending the magical academy of the area set out on an adventure that will take them across their world and teach them that facing danger and doing the right thing isn't always easy. What? No! It's not Harry Potter! I'm talking about Fortune Summoners: Secret of the Elemental Stone, an upcoming action-RPG coming out for PC.

    Super Crate Box dev offers tips on how to succeed with iOS

    By

    Super Crate Box's launch last week went over pretty big, thanks in large part to the fact that the game is excellent. It also didn't hurt that a lot of very big websites provided some very high-profile coverage. It's probably safe to say that Super Crate Box is a definite success story for developer Vlambeer, and the studio's business and development guru Rami Ismail took a little time to talk with indiegames.com about how his company managed to score an iOS home run. iOS developers, you may want to take some notes.
