Commander Pixman Hands-On Preview
Given the opportunity by the kind folks at One Minute Games, we're tearing right into "Commander Pixman!" Can life for retro platforming fans get any better than it does on iOS?
Defiant Development Interview
For our latest interview we fired some questions at Morgan Jaffit of Defiant Development. If you're keeping tabs on iOS Action RPGs, you'll recall Defiant's pre-alpha footage of "Quick Quest," which surfaced in late July; but the impression we came away with is that it doesn't matter what your favorite platform is -- you need to keep an eye on this promising indie dev from Down Under!
Farm Frenzy 3 Review
Going into this, I refused to believe that the words "arcade" and "farm sim" could possibly go together. Several hours of nail-biting resource management challenge later, I came away a "Farm Frenzy" junkie. Just don't tell my friends, okay? They think I'm playing "Halo" and "Gears of War."
Marball Odyssey Review
Sunday Coders' "Marball Odyssey" has so much going for it: sky islands, round things that transform, and physics in a front-and-center gameplay role. If only its unforgiving timer would let me explore the game as much as I want to!
Them Dumb Sheep Review
Squeezing the player between unintuitive driving mechanics and a constantly ticking clock, "Them Dumb Sheep" presents quite the interesting time attack challenge!
Pocket RPG Review
Tasty Poison Games' and Crescent Moon's "Pocket RPG" keeps its features surprisingly close to the vest. To find its juiciest morsels, you have to treat it just like the many monsters roaming its dungeons -- make it yield up its goodies with brute force!
