code-iphone-game-review

Code is the newest puzzle game for the iPhone and iPod Touch competing for the attention of our puzzle game addicts. With Code from developer Carl H. Blomqvist, you’re given the task to decode the Codemaker’s pattern on the Decoding Board.

As an aspiring Codebreaker, you are dealing with a 6 x 6 grid containing a total of 36 differently colored codes that are placed out of order. You start by having the Decoding Board all one code, and you can choose from the Decoding Pallete containing the 6 possible codes what code to place where on the board. Whenever you want to verify a combination you’ve created, hit the GO! button on the top-right side of the screen to trigger the Key Verifier. Essentially, it will tell you all you need to know to finish the puzzle.

inhale-here-iphone-app-review

Inhale Here from Gerrit Wijnants will turn your iPhone and iPod Touch into a Helium-filled balloon and let you lighten up the atmosphere at any party.

The iPhone app has no bells or whistles. It’s designed simply to do one thing: make you sound really funny. All you have to do is put your mouth to the device’s microphone, start inhaling, and then have your go and talk in the mic. The app will take what you just said in your normal voice and turn it into a high-pitched version, just as if you were inhaling Helium from the iPhone.

waterslide-extreme-iphone-game-review

Waterslide Extreme for the iPhone and iPod Touch is still currently ranking as no. 1 for Top Free Apps in the App Store, so we decided to take a slide down this newest creation, released just last week. With Waterslide Extreme, you take control of a character of a gender of your choice (male or female) and slide down a gigantic waterslide through a beautifully designed cityscape, by day or by night. Your task is to get to the bottom unharmed and collect as many gems as possible along the way.

In the game, you must tilt your device to avoid going over board, and stay in the slide until the bottom. Collect as many gems as you can and the faster you go the more bonus points you get at the end. The graphics are pretty downright great. Your device responds in real time and the game renders pretty nice and fast. Perhaps the game’s main issue has to deal with controls, as you need some time to get used to them, especially if this is your first game where the iPhone’s accelerometer is used in combination with tilting the device to control your character. But once you’ve got the hang of them, your ready to head down the slide, with no real problems.

Say hello to my little friend!

iphone-game-review-stick-wars

StickWars from John Hartzog is the fast-paced action game for the iPhone and iPod Touch where you’re up against an army of stick figurines that try to invade your castle. It’s up to you to stop them from reaching the castle walls and breaking them down. If you were looking for a castle defense type of game, then Stick Wars is the right choice for you.

In Stick Wars, as with any defend your castle game, you have to protect the castle walls from the army of, in this case, stick figurines that try to take them down using only their bare hands. You have to kill them as fast as possible, before they overwhelm you. In the earlier rounds, this is a simple task for someone with god-like powers as you. You simply have to touch the little figurine that’s running chaotically towards your castle and flick him up and down and let gravity do the rest. If you flick him high enough, he will splatter onto the ground, and if not, he will continue fighting and you get another shot at him.

It’s a wacky good time

wacky-safari-iphone-game-review

The development team over at Earblast thought the kids deserved a better iPhone experience than what the App Store had to offer. And so, the iPhone and iPod Touch application Wacky Safari was born. Wacky Safari tries to develop the kids’ natural abilities, teach them interesting facts about wildlife while giving them the opportunity to have a wacky good time while they’re at it.

The app features 5 different game modules providing your kid with hours of laughter and entertainment. Mix and Match (1 & 2) lets you put together photos of animals like giraffe, gorilla or an elephant. Simply swipe your finger across the part of the photo you want to flick, and the next photo appears. Match the three different parts of a photo to discover beautiful wildlife. With Wacky Phone you get to call your animal friends and hear them say the wackiest of things. Play the Safari DJ with Paw Jam with three different paws to choose from and create wacky sounds. The game module works similar to a sound board of sorts. Laugh & Learn will provide your kid with interesting facts and jokes with and about their favorite safari animals.

sevens-iphone-game-review

Inspired by Sudoku, developer Nigel Hanbury created the next generation of puzzles for the iPhone and iPod Touch with the release of his Sevens – a challengingly simple puzzle game to make you lose track of time.

The object of the game is similar to Sudoku. You are required to fill in the numbers one through seven on a grid, so that each row and column has all the numbers without any repeating. So far so simple. It’s Sudoku straight up, but it’s served the Nigel Hanbury way, with a compelling twist. Sevens also features color groups that are randomly scattered on the grid – seven color groups each with seven buttons. And this is where the game gets trickier. Apart from having to fill in each row and column to have all the numbers one through seven, you also have to match the different colors on the grid to have those magic numbers only once. So the game is complete when all the numbers one through seven are present only once on a column, row and color group.
