Review: Globall

App: Globall
Price: $2.99
Rating: 9 0f 10

Review: Globall is a highly addicting game, similar to the brick-breaker series, but with a twist.
The game uses full use of the accelerometer to move around stages, breaking different colored blocks. It has a nice neon feel to it, and fits perfectly to the game. The game has many power ups and enemies along the way, which makes it more fun, and challenging to play. It uses online leader boards, but differently than most. Example, it will tell you, that you have the best score for level 21 for _ _ miles. The ability to calibrate tilt, and listen to music, makes this game even more casual. Overall, it is very fun, I paid $.99 for it. But for people who like this style of game, you'll LOVE this.

Review: Space Invaders Infinity Gene

App: Space Invaders Infinity Gene
Price: $4.99
Rating: 9 of 10
Genre: Action, Shooter

Review: Space Invaders Infinity Gene is a remake of the classic space invaders game. And so far, I am blown away. The game starts off with the classic space invaders game, but later on, the game "evolves". The game quickly turns into a fast paced, action shooter, with great 2D graphics.
As if that is enough, the game uses fantastic sound effects, and exhilarating music to keep you going. The easy controls, move finger left to go left, move finger right to go right, makes it even more fun and easy to pick up and play.
There is also a ton of unlockables including graphics, weapons, extra levels, and more. Your score fills up your "gene" bar after a level, and when full, unlocks something. Overall there is no doubt this is one of, if not, the best space shooter for the iPhone, and I highly recommend it.

Review: Ragdoll Blaster

App: Ragdoll Blaster
Price: $1.99
Rating: 8 1/2 of 10
Genre: Puzzle

Review: Ragdoll Blaster is one of those apps where you find yourself going back and enjoying it over and over again. The game has a simple concept, but gets pretty challenging in the later levels. The game is simple, launch ragdolls out of a cannon, and hit the target. Easy right? Well, different obstacles and puzzles makes it a blast to play. It has a nice hand-drawn feel to it, and has a somewhat odd yet funny sound track. Overall, its worth the price, you will go back and try to beat that last high score, but if you are not a fan of ragdoll, physics, or puzzles games, it may not fit for you.



Review: Minigore


App: Minigore
Price: $.99
Rating: 9 1/2 of 10
Genre: Action

Review: Minigore is a survival shooter game similar in gameplay to iDracula. You start out in a forest area as John Gore, a tough guy with a machine gun. The controls are simple, two joysticks, the right one to shoot, the left to move.
The game starts slow with the occasional furry appearing here and there. Furries are the enemies in the game, coming in 3 sizes, and 4 types of furries. Small furries, medium size furries, large furries, and fire furries, which are faster than small furries. The game gets more frantic as you go, as John Gore shouts out random phrases, you are literally blowing up any thing that moves.
There are 3 weapons to use, the machine gun with unlimited ammo, the shot-gun with a limited supply of ammo, and boxes that you shoot and blow up. There is also a power up. Sometimes, a furry will drop a four-leaf clover on the ground. Collect three to turn into a flaming bull, stomping things into the ground. The game uses online leader-boards as well, to brag about your new high score, etc.
Overall, the game leaves you satisfied, there isn't much content in it so far, but with the upcoming updates including co-op multiplayer, the easy controls, and addicting gameplay, this game is a must buy.
