Toy Rush Review (iPhone, iPad)

Gamezebo Rating: 80

If the Toy Story movies taught us anything, it's that toys have minds of their own. It might be more than one step from free will to organized tower attack and defense drills, but Toy Rush skips everything in-between and gives us toys battling toys with a collectible card game element thrown in for good measure. It's as zany as it sounds, yet it'll have you sending toys to their doom by the dozens without even batting an eye.

Toy Rush manages to nail the balance that many games seek but can't find: it makes its core mechanics simple to learn but challenging to master. Each toy in your collection is represented by a card, and when you are on the attack, you simply drag cards onto the starting point of the level in question and watch your playthings go to work.

Shadow Fight 2 Review (iPhone, iPad)

Having no prior experience with the first game, I went in to Shadow Fight 2 totally blind. Which, I suppose, kind of makes sense. You know... because everyone's a shadow. But while I was extremely impressed with the fluidity of the animations and the detail on the character silhouettes, that all quickly gave way to frustration as I found myself fighting the controls more than my opponents.

When the nameless protagonist is somehow reduced to nothing more than a mere (and literal) shadow of his former self, he'll have to fight to get it back. And I mean really fight for it. All sorts of demons and henchmen stand is his way, and none of them want to make it easy. Fortunately he's a reasonably proficient fighter - at least, he's getting there. That's where you come in.

Kiwanuka Review (iPhone, iPad)

Added: 15.05.2014 14:00 | 18 views | 0 comments


Gamezebo Rating: 70

Kiwanuka is cute, charming, simple and even a little bit biblical: With nothing but a magical staff and steely determination, you must embark upon a daunting quest to lead your followers to freedom.

The people of Kiwanuka need your help! They've somehow managed to trap themselves on floating space rocks, and it's up to the bearer of the magical lightning staff to lead them to the sacred triangle of freedom! That's more or less how it goes, anyway. The bottom line is that you have the staff and that means you call the shots.

Republique Episode 2: Metamorphosis Review (iPhone, iPad)

Added: 14.05.2014 19:00 | 20 views | 0 comments


Gamezebo Rating: 90

Hope is still alive -- and if you didn't want any spoilers, you should go play of République before reading the rest of this review. The second installment is titled Metamorphosis, a word that has multiple meanings within Camouflaj's story-driven stealth and puzzle-solving epic. Happily, it doesn't mean the game is changing into something lesser, just building on a great first chapter by adding on a few new layers to both story and gameplay.

Car Jack Streets 2: not dead yet! (iPad)

Added: 14.05.2014 16:00 | 19 views | 0 comments


Originally announced back in 2009, it's been a long time since anybody heard anything new on Car Jack Streets 2. After our interview , Tag Games seemed to have maintained radio silence on the subject. There was no official word on the game after that point, and Tag Games have since moved on to a number of other now-completed projects, like bringing Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes to the App Store, and creating Moshi Monsters Village.

The writing was on the wall. Car Jack Streets 2 was dead.

Only... it wasn't.

"The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." That's Mark Twain, though it just as easily could have been Tag Games CEO Paul Farley. Despite a general consensus amongst internet denizens that the project was dead, Farley has assured Gamezebo that this simply isn't the truth. Production on Car Jack Streets 2 moves on, albeit slowly.

Record Run Review (iPhone, iPad)

Added: 14.05.2014 14:16 | 20 views | 0 comments


Gamezebo Rating: 50

Record Run has the makings of a mobile best-seller: a short-burst, pick-up-and-play runner that lets players dodge obstacles to the beat of their own tunes. With a triple-A pedigree from publisher Harmonix, known for catchy music game must-haves like Rock Band and Dance Central, the sky was the limit for this bite-sized behemoth. Unfortunately, forgettable gameplay and a limiting IAP structure weigh down the experience and prevent it from soaring.

The main gimmick behind Record Run is a popular staple of the rhythm genre: you can load any song into the game and it will generate a level synched to that tune. Like Audiosurf and Beat Hazard before it, Record Run has chosen this method of content generation as its banner, and has barely supplemented its user-provided music library with four built-in songs.

Last Inua Review (iPhone, iPad)

Added: 12.05.2014 19:30 | 21 views | 0 comments


Gamezebo Rating: 60

A father and son battling harsh elements and demonic corruption as they attempt to restore the three guardian spirits of the land: This is Last Inua, a 2D side-scrolling tale of survival in the deep Arctic, a visually stunning game that approaches excellence but ultimately overstays its welcome.

Last Inua is an "art-platformer," a term I just now made up to describe platformers with powerful aesthetics and unremarkable gameplay - although calling it "unremarkable" might in some instances be overly harsh. In most cases it's really just simplified, which I suspect is a conscious choice intended to encourage all players, even those of dubious skills, to reach the end and enjoy the entirety of the experience.

Dragon Coins Review (iPhone, iPad, Android)

Whenever you go to a casino or an arcade, you can usually count on the coin-pusher machine being devoid of participants - save, maybe, for a stray person gawking at it and wondering if a running jump-kick will deliver an easy payout.

SEGA's Dragon Coins is a role-playing / collectable card game powered by a coin-pusher that actually does offer significant payout. Namely, capsules containing monsters that can fight for you. Who needs to play for that crumpled five dollar bill hanging out in the back of the machine when you can net your very own dragon?

Intake: Be Aggressive Review (iPad)

Gamezebo Rating: 60

What do you get when you cross Dr. Mario with Ikaruga? Finger-tapping bullet hell with a dose of wubwubwub, that's what. Or at least that's what you get from Intake - a blisteringly fast puzzle game from Cipher Prime, the makers of fantastic little gems like .

The gameplay here is easy enough to grasp. Pills of different colors descend down the screen in varying directions and you'll need to tap to eliminate them - but only if they match the color that you're meant to be hunting for. You'll only deal with two different colors at any given time, and switching your target color is as easy as tapping the bottom of the screen. If any of the wrong colored pills reach the bottom of the screen, it's game over.
