Blockoban: Finally, a Fun, Free, Puzzler For the New Year

Usually, the FREE games listed in the App Store are pretty brutally cheap. Yes, they are free, but man, would it kill the game developers to present their app a little better than that? Take Tap Defense, for example. I mean the game just looks beautiful, has depth, and has updates coming every once in a while just to let the gamers know that they are committed. Why can’t most apps be like this one? Most of the time, we find a faulty game that’s barely playable for more than an hour and it’s immediately trashed forever.

One wrong move and the level can't be completed

I was skeptical towards the free puzzle app, Blockoban, seeing my past experiences with free apps has been nothing short of horrendous. The game devs said the game is basically a premium app that is given to the public for free to try, (an idea that I’m desperately trying to get game devs on board with) and the full game requires a in-game purchase. What you get, is a in-depth tutorial and a good amount of puzzles (100 in all) to befuddle your mind and your fingers.

It’s a simple block sliding game, in the same influence of games like “Fling!”, but instead you are using blocks. The object of the game is to take the lone blocks and match them with their corresponding color in order to progress to the next level. When you slide a block, it moves until it collides with something, and the levels often require strategy and a bit of planning ahead or else you’ll end up begin stuck.

You will have to slide rings into specific positions to move forward

The game sure has a lot of good things going for it. It’s got Plus+ online integration, colorful albeit basic graphics, enticing music, fun yet simple gameplay, solid controls, and a variety of block types and obstacles to keep you on your toes. Also, a nice feature is the unlimited undo because, take it from me, you’re going to make your share of boo boos, and you’re going to need that undo button like you needed a bib when you were a baby.

Hey, it’s free, why not give it a try? Regardless of your gaming tastes, I recommend everyone give this surprisingly fun little app a try. You’ll be getting an addicting puzzle, complete with refreshingly sleek gameplay, simplistic controls, brain teasing puzzles and altogether a quality app for not a single dollar out of your wallet. Give it a try, you’re only a block away from Blockoban.

Circletris: Tetris? Vertical Match-3? That’s in the Past!

Tetris clones are a plenty in the App Store. We reviewed a similar one like that, called Unify, and it worked well because it introduced an entirely new, innovative concept to Tetris-like gaming. Circletris is here to follow in the same footsteps by introducing it’s OWN new conception of a puzzle, match 3 game.

The main difference from other Tetris clones is in the controls. In Circletris, you are controlling a big circle with cells. You can rotate it in any direction with a slide of your finger across the screen. You have to build either vertically, horizontally, or even diagonally 3 of the same shapes of the same color.

For now, you have 2 bonus-abilities which will help you in your quest to complete the puzzle. By getting your falling block to catch the “light blue” shape, you will be awarded with the bonus ability that knocks out a whole line of colors. However, there are also black holes that if your falling block falls into it will hinder your success rate.

Controls:

With such a daring take on a match 3 puzzle game, and the controls being so different than many gamers have played in the past, a lot of questions will be if the game executed well in the controls department. Daniel’s here to report that the controls are solid. Although it may take a little while to realize what the heck you are doing, (the whole template looks like a spider-web), once you get the hang of it, it’s quite an interesting experience.

It twists your brain and challenges you to go beyond the regular vertical and horizontal. Rotating the puzzle works well and the tutorial helps point you in the right direction with information about powerups and tips etc. The main complaint I had was there was no way to speed up the “falling” of your shape, like most other games have. It speeds up later in the game, but the beginning feels like forever because they are trying to get you accustomed with the controls.

What We Liked:

+ Shapes of 10 different colors + Different bonuses + Customizable background color + Friendly learning curve

What We Disliked:

- The game as a whole feels too plain and simple – No sound effects for powerups – No speed up button – Not enough abilities/powerups – Visuals are unimpressive

Final Verdict:

A risky take on a match 3 Tetris app, Circletris actually is a very well done game with load of polish and feels like a lot of work has been put into it. I recommend this game to match-3 puzzlers everywhere because the game is so unique and innovative and is a whole different kind of experience. Though it may seem like a complicated and convoluted premise, the game is quite simple and easy to learn and pick up for any kind of player. If it weren’t for the graphics and the feel of the game feeling a little too simple, this game would be in the “must-buy” category.

Labyrinth 2: A Whole Entirely New Labyrinth Experience

Ah, labyrinth. Simple but addicting. Basic concept, but it kept people coming back for more. Bringing it onto our iDevice’s was a no-brainer however, there are many wannabes out there claiming their app to be the labyrinth app. But do not be fooled by these imposters for Illusion Labs brings us the true and real form of labyrinth gameplay. Lets get this ball rolling and dive right in.

I didn’t play the first one, and charging $4.99 for a labyrinth game seems a bit crazy considering there is only one object of the game and it’s putting a silver ball in a hole. But in Labyrinth 2, you are definitely getting your moneys worth. Not only are there countless game elements like cannons, bumpers, multiple balls, magnets, fans, resizers, merry-go-rounds, duplicators, lasers, but you can also create your own level and share them with the world, and also download and rate levels created by other users.

You can also play up to 4 player multiplayer over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or complete against your own best time with a ghost ball showing your best run. With all the contraptions and game elements that you will have to come face to face with during each level, the game presents intensity in labyrinth like you’ve never experienced. Having canons firing at you, magnets pulling your ball the opposite direction, and lasers being fired at you from all directions, you’ve just entered a whole new realm of labyrinth.

Controls:

When it come to controlling that silver ball, it can be quite tricky. That’s why Labyrinth 2 gives you full customization for your sensitivity and tilt so that you find your perfect fit. Unfortunately, the minor gripe I had was that even with the sensitivity down, the ball speed was a tad drastic for my taste. That didn’t take away from the game at all but at times it seemed it was flying, but it’s just something you got to get used to and it’s too difficult to do. Don’t let my little gripes get in the way of what is an excellent, well polished app.

What We Liked:

+ The most depth you’ll ever find in a labyrinth app + Downloadable content + Labyrinth 2 user community + Stellar 3D-like visuals + Countless game elements + Multiplayer mode via WiFi or Bluetooth + Ghost ball + Awards and achievements + Create your own level (outside the game) + iPod music friendly + Good sound effects + Amazing replay value + Calibration of sensitivity

What We Disliked:

- No soundtrack – Inability to create levels on your iDevice – Ball movement a tad fast – “Tilt” a tad too sensitive

Final Verdict:

Labyrinth 2 is an absolute masterpiece and the showmanship of the game puts other apps to shame. The amount of time and effort that went into this game truly shines and the presentation is absolutely stunning. With more game elements than you can handle, downloadable content up the wazoo, the ability to create your own level, and multiplayer capability, you’ll be playing this game for hours on end. Five dollars is a lot of money but it’s money well spent when it comes to Illusion Labs finest app to date, Labyrinth 2.

Colorix: A Visually Stunning Match-Three Puzzler

Mobo Studio, a pretty unknown game developer, has plans to bring us yet another match three puzzle game in the kind of gameplay similar to Tetris. 3D marbles in clumps of three, fall from the top of the screen falling vertically onto the ground and it is your job to match three or more marbles of the same color either vertically, diagonally, or horizontally. colorix_game04 The twist is that they have a wide array of “special” marbles and awesome combos to rack up your high score. With the regular colored marbles, there are rainbow marbles that fit to any color that it touches, a white marble that changes to random color upon landing, and black marbles that don’t fit to any color but simply take up space for a certain amount of turns and then explodes.

At first the game may seem easy enough, but playing more and more you begin to see that strategy is essetial in getting the best combinations and combos to attain your highest score.
Originally created for Android platform, Colorix is about to make it’s grand debut on the iPhone thanks to all it’s positive feedback from gamers. The visuals are the best you could possibly ask for in a match-three marble puzzle game and the gameplay has just enough excitement and variety to keep gamers satisfied.

Controls:

As the marbles fall, you have your choice of where to place the marbles with the slide of your finger horizontally. In order to switch the order of the three marbles while in mid-air, simply swing your finger vertically on the marbles how ever many times you like. For those who have cat-like reflexes and amazing “Tetris-skills”, you can choose to drop your marble combination down to the ground faster by double tapping the falling marbles. This will not only save you a couple seconds, but also award you a few extra points for your diligence.

What We Liked:

+ The best graphics a match-three puzzle app could possibly have + Multiplayer + 10 different combos you can set + Great looking 3D marbles and smooth animation + Solid gameplay + Various types of “special” marbles

What We Disliked:

- Controls are a little weird at first – No global scores (coming soon) – Adds nothing revolutionary to the genre

Final Verdict:

Although it was made for the Android, I believe Colorix will be an absolute hit on the iPhone. Thanks to the beautiful 3D graphics, the 10 different combos, the various types of “special” marbles, and the classic match-three gameplay, there is no doubt in my mind that lovers of the genre will find their new fave in Mobo Studio’s newest app. Along with tight controls and a multiplayer capability, the game is ready for prime-time and is a must-buy for puzzle lovers everywhere. It hasn’t hit the App Store just yet, but keep your eyes peeled for Colorix.

EA’s Auditorium: Aesthetically Magnificent

With titles like NBA Live, Madden, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour, EA is at the pinnacle of the sports gaming world for handheld devices. However, sometimes the game developers give us an app that just shows off their versatility in gaming. Welcome to Auditorium where you enter a black lifeless screen accompanied by arrows and a stream of colors. What you have to do is use those arrows to direct the colors into it’s corresponding box. This puzzle app is the first of it’s kind and is sure to challenge you to think with your eyes, ears, and mind.

Gameplay:

Darkness fills the screen as you open the app. There are no instructions or tutorials. The game assumes that you are smart enough to know what you are suppose to do so I’d advice every gamer to check out the Help section. It states that it’s really all about the experience, both visually and aurally…so take a deep breath, relax, and start playing.

The flow is a masterful stream of many tiny audio-visual particles. THey can be controlled and manipulated separately. Your goal is to guide them using arrows to an Audio Container that matches their color in order to proceed to the next level. The game starts you off with manipulating just one arrow and one color coordination. As you progress, the game throws different variety of challenges your way. For instance, there will be a various amount of colors or “flow”, that you will have to deal with and obstacles you will have to avoid in order to reach your goal. Why this game is so aesthetically pleasing is that as you direct the “colors” to their corresponding Audio Containers, music plays, and it’s wonderful symphonies sweetly playing through your speakers.

In some levels, or “Acts”, there will be up multiple boxes, each representing an instrument in the symphony you must complete. As you fill up more and more boxes in the level, the more complete the symphony will sound. Once you’ve filled every single box to the top with it’s corresponding color, the symphony is complete and you proceed to the next level.

Controls:

As confusing as the game sounds, it’s really not that complicated. Each act contains puzzles and all you need to do is direct the “flow” to the corresponding audio containers with the arrows.

Manipulating the arrows is a little more complicated however. The arrows are your way of manipulating the flow, both the speed and direction of any particle they encounter. There are two ways to operate the controls. First, touch and drag the control icon to move the arrow around. Second, pinch or expand the radius of the arrow to change it’s area of influence.

Literally the only gripe I had with the controls is that sometimes you want to move your arrow a pinch to the right. But your finger is a little on the thicker side and one little slide of your finger and that arrow can go flying across the screen. Slight movements are difficult because sometimes the arrow moves more than you would like it to. It’s a minor annoyance that the sensitivity at times is a little shaky but besides that the controls are solid.

What We Liked:

+ Innovative and ingenious premise + + Additional purchasable content + Excellent sound quality + Aesthetically beautiful + Learning curve not too steep + Many alternative ways to solve puzzles + Obstacles and effects help give the game variety

What We Disliked:

- A tad short – Some of the symphony ballads sound a little too similar – Control sensitivity a little shaky at times

Final Verdict:

EA’s Auditorium is as aesthetically pleasing as it is incredibly entertaining and addicting. The app premise of the game is basic yet innovative, the gameplay is challenging yet exhilarating. It’s an all around treat for the eyes, the ears, and your fingers. With a free Lite version available in the App Store there’s no reason for anyone to not at least give it a shot. Auditorium deserves to take a bow for delivering such a magnificent symphony for all of us gamers to enjoy. Bravo!

Sherlock Holmes: The game is afoot

There’s nothing like a little mystery, eh? Who else brought out the classic timeless whodunit stories and novels like our old pal, Sherlock Holmes. And he’s been searching for a way to the App Store and it looks like Mobile Deluxe is going to steer him in the right direction. We got an exclusive look at Sherlock Holmes: The Game is Aloof which puts you in the shoes of Holmes himself along with his trusty sidekick Mr. Watson. The game is a puzzle adventure/hidden object game which are crafted in the style of the beloved Sherlock Holmes mysteries. Let’s get to the bottom of this app and see if Sherlock Holmes belongs in the App Store.

Gameplay:
As you venture through various puzzles and scenarios, the object of the game is simple: either find all the different hidden objects in the picture by tapping them or distinguishing a certain amount of differences between two portraits.

The graphics aren’t too shabby, although when you zoom in to certain parts of pictures, it gets a little blurry and fuzzy. I found the antique cartoony style of the dialogue between Sherlock and Mr. Watson to be quite amusing. Too bad there’s so much useless dialogue to read that nobody will really to get a chance to appreciate it.

Besides that, however, the game has no real depth or diversity for the gamer to explore. Yes, there is downloadable content for users to update their puzzles daily. However, unless you have a strong affection for anything Sherlock Holmes and or you can’t get enough of finding hidden objects, the game can be a bit boring at times. It felt like a chore to me progressing through just 3 levels and I only scratched the surface of the amount of puzzles that is packed in this game.

The biggest problem I had was that I found no incentive to really find the objects that they were asking me to locate. There were no real awards or anything for finding them and so the game loses it’s appeal when it gives you nothing for your exploits.

Controls:
As you play Sherlock Holmes, the game plays in first-person mode. Your mission is to use your magnifying glass (zooming in and out) and panning the room for certain hidden objects to help solve the mystery.

Panning around the room using your touch is easy and responsive as well as the zooming in function. The only real downside to this is the graphics aren’t too clear when you zoom in to a certain degree making it difficult to interpret what an item is. Besides that, controlling Sherlock was no sweat.

What We Liked:
+ Classic hidden object game with a side storyline + Great antique style feel + Variety of puzzles + Daily updates via Internet connection + “Spot the differences” games + Above-average graphics until you zoom in

What We Disliked:
- Could of added more to the game than search and find – The antique style of the game might turn most gamers off – Not much different than other hidden object games – Besides Holmes aspect, it introduces nothing to the genre – Extremely repetitive and tedious

Final Verdict:
Although it’s a worthy attempt to bring a classic character like Sherlock Holmes to the iPhone / iPod device, there’s just not enough here to interest even the loyalest of Holmes fans. I can only recommend this game to people who LOVE those “I Spy” books and or love hidden object apps. All other gamers should probably stay away from trying to solve this mystery.

Mahjongg Artifacts 2: One Game To Rule Them All?

How or why there are so many Mahjongg games in the App Store, I’ll never know. I don’t know many people around my age group that even have the slightest clue how to play, let alone buy a Mahjongg app. So I went into this game having no idea how to play or what the mass appeal might be for a game with a bunch of tiles. But man, G5 Entertainment sure know how to make the game addicting and fun for all kinds of gamers. Let’s get cracking’ on this.

Gameplay Modes:
Three modes are included in Mahjongg Artfacts 2: Quest, Classic, and Endless. Quest is quite interesting as there’s even a storyline to go with the gameplay to give the gamer some incentive on why he or she is putting together tiles. You’ll have 25 layouts of mixing and matching tiles to go through. The storyline is told in a “comic book” format and although the dialogue is a little small to read, it looks great on the device.

For Classic Mode, you get to choose up to 100 different layouts you wish to play in order to score your highest mark. Not only do you get to choose your layout but you also have the option of choosing your tileset, and what kind of background the gamer would to have as a backdrop.

Endless mode is pretty self-explanatory. There is no “getting the Golden Tiles” in order to complete the level; it’s merely just to see how your tile mixing and matching skills are and how long you can last trying to crack into that endless tile layout.

The concept is pretty simple: you match up the corresponding/matching tiles and you are awarded points for your exploits. You can only match tiles that are free on the left or right and that no other tile covers. Tiles that don’t match but are of the same theme can be paired together. Every suit contains Power Tiles that can be paired with any tile of it’s own suit. To complete a layout of tiles, you must match the Golden Tiles.

Controls:
There’s no too much to mention about the controls as all of it is based merely on a simple touch. What’s nice is that the game “highlights” very clearly in blue which tile you selected. On some “Power Tiles” and “Mighty Tiles” it’ll show you which one corresponds with that tile because it’s sometimes too hard to tell what kind of tile you got.

There’s an “undo” button as well as a “hint” option that both proves to be useful features in scurrying through piles of tiles. Like a good game should, it has a “Pause” and you can resume your game on upon exiting the application.

What We Liked:
+ Easy to pick up and play + Not too steep learning curve + Great sound effects and soundtrack to match gameplay + Slick in-game and narrative graphics + Three different modes + 27 gorgeous backgrounds + Five drawn tilesets + Manual and auto zoom in/out option + “Power Tiles” and “Mighty Tiles” + Responsive controls

What We Disliked:
- Some text is too hard to read – Some tile layouts feel too similar – If your vision isn’t the best, you’ll find this game quite difficult – Tile designs are miniscule

Final Verdict:
If Mahjongg tickles your fancy, you should go directly to the App Store and pick this game up along with it’s sequel. Mahjongg Artifacts 2 is one of the most polished Mahjongg games out there. It’s got loads of layouts and variety to keep even the biggest fan pleased for days. However, for other gamers, I suggest trying out the Lite version and seeing if the game interests you. Some will find it entertaining and others will be put off by the tediousness. Nonetheless, it’s a quality game worth checking out no matter what kind of gamer you are.

Hopido: A bit too boring of a board game

Hopido, by Moido Games Ltd., is a puzzle game that puts your thinking and strategizing to the test. It may say on it’s advertisement page, “No timer, no stress” but just because it there isn’t a clock ticking doesn’t mean that you won’t be getting a little ticked off out of sheer frustration. It’s kind of like chess where you have limited movement around the board, except with a puzzle-like twist. Hopido is a tough app to explain in a small amount of words so let’s hop to it and dive right in.

Adubble Review

The bubble Bejeweled-style games: will the gaming community ever get enough of these puzzlers?

New ones are issued every day to the app store and online, and with Adubble Michal Joncsyk enters into this hyper-competitive foray with bombs, lasers, mines, and all manner of crazy gem weapons in an earnest attempt to contribute to the genre.

Yet despite its doodads, it adhears largely to the classic gameplay of move jewels around to connect three or more and score point.

First, praise:

This is a well-polished game with nice sound effects, background music, and glittering oh-so-poppable spheres. I especially appreciate that the menu is so readily handy for turning off said sound effects and music.

If you’re looking for a casual time-waster and are fond of the Bejeweled genre, I’d recommend this game. You certainly get your money’s worth; with sixty levels of increasing difficulty, you’ll hardly run out of spheres to pop and after you’ve completed every level just give your iPhone a shake, and it will select a random one for you.

During your play you’ll encounter rocks that don’t move, locks that won’t move either until you pop them, lasers which blast away a whole row and can set off other lasers, stars that give you tons of points, switchers which change the color of the row, mines which blow you up if you try to move them, and bombs that you have a limited time to pop before they blow up and kill you.

If that sounds like a lot of things to master, it is, and they’re fed to you one at a time through eight practice levels. Count on spending twenty-minutes playing tutorials before you get into the more liberated mode of play.

And yet, despite all these gadgets, the game gets old fast. The difficulty advances slowly and in playing twenty levels, I only had to play two of those over again to advance.

But perhaps my biggest issue right now is that once you get the required score to advance onto the next level, you just keep playing so that you can achieve a higher score…as if that matters. I’d at least like an option to skip to the next level.

Adubble: a decent game if you’re into the Bejeweled genre and want a more casual title.

The Good:

Pleasant graphics and sound
Gadgets are a cool addition to the Bejeweled genre
Sixty levels

The Bad:

Difficulty progresses slowly and tutorial lasts eight levels
You just keep playing after qualifying score is reached

GudeBalls Review

I’m going to admit something to all of you. Sometimes when I get a title assigned to review I give a little eye roll and my expectations are lowered just by the name or a single screenshot. And I’ll admit that I did this very thing with GudeBalls.

Cronk Review

There are very few people who have wasted time on a computer and haven’t tried a game like Zuma or Puzzle Loop. And this genre is perfect for the mobile play, especially on the great screen and touch control capabilities of the IPhone/iTouch. We’ve seen a few of these games already, and now it’s time to take a look at one of the early entries in the App Store that’s been given an update… Cronk.

Jabeh

Jabeh is a wonderful new puzzle game from Arash Payan that is part minesweeper, part sudoku, part work of art, and part… well, I’m sure it’s part of one of the rings of hell.

The concept is simple enough. You have to find where the twelve blue stones are supposed to go on the board. You have a row of numbers along the top and left side of the screen that tell you how many stones are picture-2 supposed to fit in that row or column (for instance, if there is a three on the row of numbers along the right side, then you know that there has to be three stones in that row – no more, no less). And there are even some arrows on the board that point the way to one or more stones. All you have to do is find where the stones go.

Simple enough… right. Wrong. There is no cake walking your way through this game. Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out you realize that it’s all wrong. Many times I stared at the screen thinking, “that’s it. I’ve done it”, only to see the screen still holding true and waiting for me to find the right placements. Ah the frustration… the good kind.

The game is not all evil. You can tap a handy “hint” button and it will show you exactly where one of the stones is supposed to go. I hate to admit it but the first time I played the game I hit the hint button seven times!

And the numbers in the rows and columns are a great way to keep track of things. You can even touch a box that you know wouldn’t be a place for a stone so that you can darken it so it’s out of sight out of mind.

Once you have the stones all in the correct place the screen changes to reveal a very nice drawing that looks like something you might find in an Oriental Art Book. Even the music is very nice and seems to be set up all with relaxation in mind… oh how cruel they are for doing that do me.

Game play is very nice. You have a simple menu screen that let’s you go over the instructions, see statistics, play the game, and even make changes to the sounds in the game. Every thing is very simple to use and it’s the type of game you can play with one hand without difficulty.

picture-3 Placing the stones is done with just a simple double tap on the screen. A single tap will darken the screen like I mentioned earlier. You can take away the stones easily enough and replace them wherever you’d like. In the bottom left hand corner of the screen is a counter that shows you how many stones you’ve placed so you can always know how many more you need to find homes for.

Like I said, the game is very pretty, very simple, and very challenging.

After my overuse of the hint button on the first game I worked hard to not use it for an entire game. I was able to do it after a few games and finally got my time down to just over a minute on a game. I felt pretty good about myself, before realizing that I was only on the games “Easy” setting. With a mix of dread and happiness that only comes with the “good” type of frustration I moved on to the “Medium” and “Hard” settings… each of them living up to their names.

In all honesty. I thought that this would be a game that I’d play a little bit, review and then move on with my life, but I find myself going back to it again and again. It’s just so simple… and so hard at the same time that I have to keep testing myself.

There is a “Lite” version of the game so pick it up to get a little does of Good Frustration, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself getting the full version once you’ve finished the seven that come with it. The game is really fun and… I hate to put the word addicting in a review… but it is addicting.

Picture Hunt Mania

Okay, let’s get this out of the way. I’ve never considered myself really into the whole “spot the difference” type of game. I mean, sure when I was a kid I had a good time noticing that one of the girl’s pigtails was missing, and there was a certain pride in finding that before my friends, but eventually the thrill faded.

Gemmed

With the multitude of various match-3 games in the app store, it is hard to decide which ones are worthy of your money. Gemmed is a nice twist on a classic game, and provides fans of the genre a great gaming experience.
