Blades of Fury

App Review

Blades of Fury is a surprisingly good fighting game quite similar to Soul Calibur. Created by Gameloft, Blades oozes quality in every category, from the sweet visuals to online play. It even features a decent storyline! After being defeated 20 years ago, the evil Faust has risen again to reclaim the holy suit of armor. You start the game by choosing one of 6 characters (more are unlockable), both good and bad, each with unique moves and interesting motivations for wanting the armor.

Sneezies

Sneezies is a puzzle game that I definitely feel falls in the "absolutely must have" category. The charming and colorful characters combined with an unbelievably simple idea make for dozens of hours of addicting fun. The fact that it's so simple, yet it can still be quite challenging make it, quite literally, a game for all ages.

Ramp Champ

Ramp Champ is a extremely addicting and interesting take on the classic arcade concept of skee ball. There have been several versions of this style game to hit the App Store, but this is by far my favorite. It's surprising that such a simple idea could be so entertaining, but trust me. Ramp Champ will steal hours and hours of your life away.

ACTPrinter is an extremely useful app that allows you to download any document you would otherwise print right to your iPhone. Once you go to Houdah Software's website and download the corresponding computer application, you're all set to go! This is one those app concepts that I'm really surprised isn't automatically included with the iPhone.

Enigmo 2

Enigmo 2 is the sequel to the award winning port of the Macintosh game Enigmo. It is a unique, three-dimensional physics-based puzzle game. The game involves getting some sort of substance (water, plasma, laser beams) from its source to a collection receptacle by using objects and reflective surfaces. Once you collect the minimum amount of each substance simultaneously, you can advance to the next level, but you must do it quickly. Your bonus points start high and start ticking down as soon as the game starts.

Toki Tori is likely one of the most adorable little games you can get for your iPhone today. The game puts you in control of Toki Tori, a newly born "chicken" who's on a quest to save his unborn siblings. Because you can't fly, you're given items and weapons along the way to help you traverse the various worlds and defeat baddies that stand in your way.

Myst

App Review

Myst is a puzzle-adventure game from Cyan Worlds, Inc., that steadily draws you in with tiny clues and broad landscapes. For those not fortunate to play the game when it was originally released, this is a great time to immerse yourself in a plot thick with drama and mystique. Quarreling brothers, sabotage, hidden doors and mechanical genius are only a few of the aspects of the brilliance that is Myst.

Harbor Master

App Review

Harbor Master is an addictive game where your goal is to direct incoming ships to the loading docks. The concept is not unlike that of the infamous Flight Control, but Imangi Studio adds a twist. You also have to direct them back out again! Things get pretty wild after a while, as you try to guide multiple ships in and out while trying to stop them from running into each other!
