Twiddler By EM Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

There are game genres we all choose to stay away from, for me some are endless runner games, mazes, and growing crap! Twiddler fits in the labyrinth/maze category, but it was intriguing enough to keep me playing. Imagine you have a glass lens in your hand you can rotate with ease, and you're looking into a maze filled world. Twiddler feels very realistic almost as if you forget it's just a screen, well, until you're rudely interrupted by someone calling. You begin each level rolling and balancing your ball rotating clockwise or counterclockwise, and grab as many stars as you can on the way to the end portal. Your heart will be thumping, so be sure to take a break in crevices to avoid enemies and obstacles like barbed wire and ugly creatures.

All that hard work squashed after grabbing a bunch of stars? You could take the easy way out skipping most of the stars, but that's not going to unlock the next level for you, so man up! Twiddler does work through the Game Center, so you will be able to challenge your friends scores and achievements if you so choose. Lets be honest here, that's about all I can tell you because this game is tough, for patient people, and I haven't unlocked many levels yet! Hopefully you'll have better luck than me, because Twiddler currently has a rust, nature, and space world, with 5 levels each(15 total). If you're into the labyrinth category, I think you'll love Twiddler, if not, I still think you'll appreciate the realistic feel to this game.

Prince of Balls By IKKI Arts iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

This is a critical time to stay occupied while we listen to crazy talk during the Obama vs. Romney Presidential Race. So as you're watching the news wanting to pull your hair out and the moron speaking, just relax and slide open your iPhone. Prince of Balls is a new side scrolling game, where the object is to jump the least amount of times grabbing stars, coins, and other hidden treasures on your way to the finish line to find your princess. Your character is an orange ball prince with a crown, that can only jump left or right based on where you touch the screen. Your strategy through each level is to jump the correct height and angle depending on touch, to collect all the stars, coins, and hidden gifts, without wasting a jump. Jump wrong and you'll hit one of the obstacles or enemies and die. On the topic of dying, be sure to grab fruit, and cross the checkpoints before you run out of energy.

I chose to review Prince of Balls because there's a lot of iPhone games out with the same sort of features, but it's the golf score lowest amount of jumps, that gives it the WuzAPPenin originality thumbs up! Some neat features are gravity potions to float and magnetize to everything in your way, spring off of mushrooms, or even watch out for the slippery mud. You can download Prince of Balls Free, pay for 50 more levels, or even pay more for Prince of Balls HD, which in my opinion is pushing it. Whichever version you choose is up to you, but either way you're sure to have a new fun game at your fingertips.

Vote!!! By Chair Entertainment Group iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Vote!!! iPhone is really one of those iPhone games that doesn't need a review. I didn't say stop reading! What I meant was, you are cartoon Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, and you fight each other with different goofy weapons you can buy. That's the game. I decided to review Vote!!! iPhone because the real point of the app is to get people to vote. Even though this is an educational app for the 2012 Presidential Election, the game is actually pretty entertaining. Some of the features you'll like are, Obama and Romney are constantly yapping catch phrases, you can fight on the the Whitehouse Lawn, Oval Office, or Debate Stage, and buy goofy costumes to dress the next president in.

You could get bored pretty quick fighting the same fight with the same two people. What keeps Vote!!! iPhone entertaining is the funny disguises and goofy weapons, like a hot dog on a stick, ice cream, or whack 'em with the Constitution. Whether you like beating up the candidates or not, again the whole purpose of the app is to get people to Vote!!!, and provides you with some information and links. Millions will be playing without a doubt, and so far you can clearly see Barack Obama is destroying Mitt Romney in percentage points. What do you expect when you have people like Todd Akin, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity on your side. We'll see what happens come November, but for now, in game world Obama seems to be the winner in Vote!!!.

Mikey Shorts By BeaverTap Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

If you've read WuzAPPenin reviews before, you know I love me some Super Mario type feel games. Mikey Shorts is without a doubt the best one I have found so far in the platform game category, and the controls are spectacular. You are Mikey, and your job is to rescue people that have been turned into statues. Touch "every" statue, grab coins, jump on moving platforms, and kill or avoid harmless in your way robots through 72 levels of fun! Yes I did quote "every" statue because you have to fill up the bar, or you can't bust through the gates to slowly get Mikey's memory back.

A few fun features with Mikey Shorts are spending your coins on disguises, find the hidden golden shorts in every level, and race your ghost to beat your best time. There is also online achievements and scores, and in options you can even move the controls wherever you please. The good or bad with Mikey Shorts, depending on how you look at it, is nothing other than falling to your death is going to kill you, as the real point is to find the fastest routes to get the oh so famous three stars. As you try to beat the fastest times on the leader-board, you'll find yourself restarting levels until you've lost all feeling in your hand. I even have Mikey Shorts to thank for entertaining me instead of throwing my TV controller at Sean Hannity! This is the first iPhone app for BeaverTap Games, and with more updates to come, Mikey Shorts will keep you entertained for hours.

Mega Run - Redford's Adventure By Get Set Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

By now you must be familiar with games like Mega Jump or something similar. I have to be honest, the north moving games just are not for me, i'm an east and west gamer. Well, the good news is now you can play with Get Set Games graphics with forward moving Mega Run. Play as seven different characters through beautiful landscapes, and collect coins, gems, stars, and power ups. In your way of 64 levels are monsters you can hop on to kill, cliffs to jump over, walls to bust through, and plenty of other trinkets to keep you happy.

As you travel non stop through each level, you can level up to unlock and spend coins on accessories to freeze enemies, fly over obstacles,change characters, supersize your character, and a ton more. Every object catches your eye and does something different, like the bounce you back totem statues. The point is to grab everything you can without stopping, but I kind of wish there was an option to be able to move as you please. Either way, if you enjoyed games like Mega Jump, you'll definitely love Mega Run - Redford's Adventure.

SplitApple By MKO Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Since archery was one of the most watched sports of the 2012 Summer Olympics, I figured it was time to find a solid iPhone game to give you your bullseye fix. I've downloaded a slew of archery iPhone games, and the only one that met most of my expectations was SplitApple. The graphics resemble a 3D painting as you stare down the bullseye, surrounded by swaying trees and city neighborhoods in the backdrop. To fire your arrow, all you have to do is slide your finger down the button to zoom in, move your iPhone around to aim, and let go. What keeps the game realistic and challenging, is you can choose different wind directions, change the target distance, and even change to moving targets. Feeling confident, see if you can slice apples in half hanging from the trees to get bonus points. I even love the accent when the game say's "spleet apple", or "bools eye".

You'll keep this app for awhile as you can compare your scores on the leaderboard, and choose from five different playing options. PRACTICE before you embarrass yourself on the leaderboard, CHALLENGE switches up distance and targets, shoot fast in TIME TRIALS if you're flight attendant said "please turn off all electronic devices", SURVIVAL, miss the target and lose an arrow, hit a bull or apple, gain arrows. Finally there's POP UP where you aim at random targets that, you guessed it, pop up. Don't like the direction you have to move your iPhone to aim? No problem, in options you can change that as well as change the bow side if you're left handed. I was hoping to find an Olympic archery game so I could nervously wait for the right moment to let go of the arrow as it sticks in the bullseye to beat Italy! SplitApple and its multiple price options including a free version, is not a brand new app to meet that Summer Olympic expectation, but it doesn't matter, because I've yet to find something better in its category!

Clear Vision 17+ By FDG Entertainment iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

STOP here if you don't like Stickman iPhone apps! Clear Vision is a Stickman sniper shooter iPhone game that has a nice little story to it. You need to successfully complete 25 missions which involve killing a particular stickman in different situations. What makes it a bit more fun is calculating wind and distance, and sometimes you even get to call your victim before you kill them.

In this iPhone app you are paid for completing your mission, and eventually you can purchase better sniper guns. You can even bet on stickman simulated underground boxing to earn more money. I also got a kick out of the newspaper you can read each day, to read about the people you killed. I expect FDG Entertainment will add new missions hopefully soon, and they also have a good amount of iPhone apps in the app store with good ratings, and Clear Vision is a doctors office waiting room time killer worth download.

Mole Kart By Taomee Entertainment iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

I seem to have this problem trying to find anything close to anything Super Mario, and Mole Kart is just that, the closest iPhone app I've seen to Mario Kart. Half the iphone users seem to have a problem with ripping off Mario type games, but to make an analogy, i'm pretty sure most singers and actors were influenced and inspired by other singers and actors, so "Wuz" the difference! To get the bad out of the way, the Kart is much too small. The graphics are as good as you could ask for in an iPhone app, but it's not as exciting with a Kart that's at least half the size it should be. Past that and the fact the size makes it a little more difficult to control and miss the items in the road, Mole Kart is an app I could see getting better and better.

They all ready have a new version coming later this summer. You've got your usual pick up items off the track, and what ever it turns up as you can use to slow down your opponents. For instance toss the banana peel and bombs, speed boosts, lightning, and many others that are listed in the apps glossary. I also like how you can shake the iPhone when you are going over a jump to go faster, just like you can do with the Wii remote if you've played Mario Kart. You have three play options: item mode, speed mode, and multiplayer local bluetooth or wifi. So if you love Mario Kart like most of us do, I'd stay on top of these developers, as Mole Kart is, and will be a really fun iPhone app game with a few good updates.

Freekick Battle By GAMEVIL iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

For those soccer fans, you can search for a good few hours with all the soccer iPhone apps out there. What I like about Freekick Battle is the colorful clear graphics, and the ability to lose 30 minutes without blinking. Freekick Battle is easy to control, but not always easy to score with defenders in the way. You move your finger around a soccer ball to aim high, low, and bend left or right with the correct power. In your way is a wall of defenders, and of course a moving goalie.

This iPhone app has an online mode where you play against an opponent on a race to 3000 points. If I could change some features, I'd like to see the ability to bend a little further, and some different modes to keep it exciting. GAMEVIL has a ton of iPhone games in the App Store, and Freekick Battle is worth a download.

Mike & Milkbox By Docob Media Service iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Mike & Milkbox brings a Mario type feel with coins, jumping on blocks, smashing, and a bit of physics. Instead of being a Mario type character, you are a bird in this iPhone game, so hopefully there will be some updates to change characters as it is needed. You can scroll through four different chapters each with six boards.

The physics aspect is pushing boxes and long sticks to help you through your travels. Like all the Mario type iPhone games I have found,Mike & Milkbox isn't going to blow you away with neat features, but my vote is we pay attention to this developer, as they are on the right track.

Swim Meet: Finger Racing By Darwin 3D iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Well it is Olympic swimming time, so you probably want to pretend you're Michael Phelps or Missy Franklin right? Swim Meet is a very simple yet fun iPhone app. There are 5 different races: freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, butterfly, and 400 m individual medley. You put two fingers down as feet until the race starts, and when the gun goes off, you move your fingers on the screen as it tells you to. The better and faster you move your fingers on the iPhone screen, the faster you'll go. All you can do right now is compare your fastest time on Game Center against the world.

You will have played this whole iPhone game in a matter of five minutes, so at this point it probably will not stay on your iPhone for very long. What would keep this iPhone app on my iPhone longer, is if they could add a little animation to the water, and Ryan Lochte under water as you move your fingers. That way you could see someone swimming which would be much more exciting. Since this iPhone app all ready has the online leader board, I'd also love to see the ability to race against friends and others online, and also see other swimmers next to you, so you know if you need to step it up a notch. I say check Swim Meet out, and if you feel the same as I do, maybe we'll get a nice update soon!

Atlantis Oceans By Sunrise Software iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

I felt myself trying to find some sort of underwater iPhone game, and really found nothing until Atlantis Oceans. You are a male or female scuba diver, and you dive into the depths of the ocean snatching up a slue of different fish. Try and grab multiple of the same fish in a row, and you'll rack up more combo points to spend in the store. You can buy better air tanks, scuba gear, depth, a harpoon to kill sharks, and many other gadgets.

bAs you buy more, you will be able to go deeper into the caves of the ocean, and finally find the treasure to move on to the next ocean somewhere else. No problem right? Except for the fact there are a ton of flesh eating sharks! There is a free version which gives you plenty to try, and if you enjoy like I did, you can purchase their iPhone app for a few bucks. Atlantis Oceans looks like the only iPhone game from Sunrise so far, buy clearly they know what they are doing, and I can't wait to see what's next!
