Auditorium – Review

Auditorium – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

Let it be known right off the bat: Auditorium is unlike anything I’ve played on the iPhone–or on any platform, for that matter. Here is a game that, like a lot of other games, challenges your problem-solving skills, but unlike most games, rewards you with wonderful music and visuals.

It seems that Auditorium was developed with only one thing in mind: the audio-visual experience of the player. The game is divided into "acts," which are subdivided into levels. You must solve the puzzle in each l…Read More


iHal – Review

iHal – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

I’ve been playing around with iHal for a bit, and I have to say that I really don’t see the point.  The program basically communicates via the Internet with an artificial intelligence set up somewhere remote.  Supposedly it would learn from the conversation and customize responses to you.

Sadly, it works as well as a similar program I encountered in my childhood at various science museums.  That is to say, not very well.  The program didn’t seem to vary it’s responses to my…Read More


STREET FIGHTER IV – Review

STREET FIGHTER IV – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

After playing Street Fighter IV for 30 minutes, I got enough of the game to offer the following.  This is about the best old school fighting game that is currently available on the iPhone/Touch system.

At first, I wasn’t really sure about the lack of using a real joystick to move the characters around and properly time and control the sequence for my attacks.  I spent a little time in the DoJo initially to go over some practice moves before moving onto Tournament mode.

If you’ve ever played S…Read More


Rayman 2: The Great Escape – Review

Rayman 2: The Great Escape – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

I am a big fan of the Rayman series.  The last time I played Rayman 2, I made it all the way to the end of the game in 32 hours, so you can imagine my excitement when I heard this was coming to the iPhone.

Rayman 2 for the iPhone is a very good port, and is similar to the original in many ways, Rayman even does his ‘I’m bored waiting for you to move’ sequence if you leave him alone for too long.

The gameplay is smooth and the animations are crisp and clean.  The colors are vivid, bright and e…Read More


Canabalt – Review

Canabalt – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

Philip James Bailey once said that "Simplicity is nature’s first step, and the last of art." 

I have no idea what that means, but it does sound like it sums up the greatness that is "Canabalt," assuming that the saying means that the best art is created by the simplest means.

Give me a break. I’m not a literature professor. I review iPhone apps for a living. The most knowledge I’m required to have over the English language is if I can find the "q" key on the keyb…Read More

PAC-MAN Championship Edition – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

If you were a child growing up in the 80s or maybe a parent of a child at that time, I’m sure you got hooked on the old video games like PacMan.  It was the rage all over the globe in arcades and even on your own home video system.  Now, you can get PAC-MAN on your iPhone thanks to Namco Networks America Inc.

 

Once you install the game, touch the screen and you’ll get the Main Menu where you can choose to PLAY GAME, choose whether you want your sound on or OFF (in the OPTION…Read More


Low Grav Racer – Review

Low Grav Racer – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

Low Grav Racer is an old game, as far as iPhone games go.  It’s been out since December 2008.  That being said, in celebration of the release of the sequel game Low Grav Racer 2, it was offered for free for a day and that’s when I picked it up.

Wow, what a game.  It’s a first-person racing game but in a space-age enviornment with a car that doesn’t even touch the ground.  The visuals are fantastic and the graphics and animation are superb.  No wonder this was a $5.99 game in i…Read More

Dragon Search – Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website

From the makers of Dragon Dictation (a perfect app if there ever was one) comes Dragon Search.  This app uses the same speech-to-text technology with a slightly different outcome.  You can dictate search terms for Google, Wikipedia, Twitter, YouTube and several other popular, searchable websites.

As with Dragon Dictation, this app is free.  The app similarly also has the red button which one taps in order to begin dictation.  Once completed, one taps the "Done" button and th…Read More
