In fact, the game manages to prove that when it comes to fighting the things that go bump in the night, sometimes all you need to have a good time is a couple of barrels of buckshot and some ingenuity.

    Back in 2009, developer Tiger Style released Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor for iOS devices. Long story short: If you haven't played the game, you really should get on that because the game is brilliant. Since then, not much has come out from the studio other than an arcade-style tie-in to the first game.

MocoSpace, the self-proclaimed "largest mobile gaming community in North America," has just released the results of a new survey, and the results are pretty interesting.
