iDracula

App Review

iDracula is a sweat-inducing shooter from More Games Entertainment and Chillingo. You play a vampire hunter while taking out hundreds of monsters and the occasional bloodsucker. Being outnumbered is a serious understatement. The difficulty level here is somewhere in between intense and brutal. If surviving endless waves of monsters until you inevitably die sounds like good times, iDracula is definitely the game for you!
 

Horror Racing

App Review
mzl.rzlbuauw.512x512-75.jpg

Horror Racing is a hectic arcade racing game where you outrace and outgun monster opponents on your way to the finish line. It's a perfect example that racing games for the iPhone don't have to have awkward controls that depend on the device's accelerometer. The graphics are rough and grungy, but that's pretty much to be expected with this particular theme. Don't let the title worry you, the "horror" is at a PG level. Think "Mad Max" meets "Monster's Inc." With missiles, speed boosts, and plenty of ramps, Horror Racing is a lot of fun and really easy to get into.

PAC-MAN REMIX

PAC-MAN REMIX is part of a series of "remixed" classic Namco arcade games. These remixed games feature updated graphics, sound, control schemes, gameplay modes, and features. Instead of the usual ghosts-pellets-maze formula, this remixed version throws in boss fights, power-ups, warp tiles, and multiple leveled mazes, not to mention polished up graphics and adjustable difficulty levels.

Penetrator

App Review

Penetrator is a simple yet challenging game app from Readdle that finds you piloting a futuristic vessel through tight corridors deep underground. There are no weapons or enemies to avoid here; the point is simply to last as long as you can without exploding. Be careful, touch the corridor walls or a barrier and it's all over! Penetrator has a simple concept, is surprisingly difficult to play well, and gives you incredible satisfaction once you get good.

Astraware Board Games is a collection of 8 classic games: Chess, Backgammon, Checkers, Ludo, Nine Men's Morris, Reversi, Tic-Tac-Toe, and Snakes & Ladders. The collection allows you to play against the computer, or against 1-3 friends using either the same or multiple iPhones through local Wi-Fi.

There are three levels of difficulty for each game, and allows any game to be paused and saved for later if you wanted to play a different game instead.

Wild West Pinball

App Review
Copy 2.jpg

Wild West Pinball is not your average pinball game. It tries its best to make it feel as if you're actually playing on a pinball machine, and it does a pretty impressive job if I may say so myself. The controls are simple. All you do is tap the left or right side of the screen to move the corresponding levers! Easy, right? The only thing it seems to be lacking is a way to tilt/shake the "table".
