Review: They Need To Be Fed

icon

Platform games were all the rage in the early days of video gaming. Now though, it’s a rare title that takes us back to those two dimensional worlds. In the new age of mobile gaming, fantastic creativity can be found in arcade and action games. Therefore, a return to the classic platform genre would require a unique twist to catch our attention. That’s exactly what YoYo Games have done with They Need To Be Fed. Read on to find out if it works.

Review: Yacht II

icon

The problem with classic games is that they tend to get overlooked by many because it's been so long since they appeared. Such is the case with ZingMagic's Yacht (i.e. Yahtzee), here in its 'II' implementation, reviewed back by us five years ago on All About Symbian, when the screen size was a brain numbing 176 pixels by 208 - remember? The gameplay's basically identical, but for a classic game this is exactly what you want. And we have improvements in screen resolution and distribution method.

Review: Revival 2

icon

If you’re an eager explorer, a budding builder, have a penchant for politics, or fancy yourself as a swinging swordsman, then you might just be interested in Revival 2. This is a Civilisation clone, all running within your Symbian phone. It’s a complex game genre, being something of a simulator for early human settlements. It’s an old genre too, with its roots definitely in the DOS era of gaming. Read on to find out how well it translates into the mobile space.

Review: Bubble Birds

icon

A good game never dies, it just gets remade, over and over. That’s the case with the original Bubble Shooter genre, which has many imitators, including Bubble Birds. Possibly riding on the meme of Angry Birds, your challenge is to launch chicks from the nest, matching colours to eliminate the rows and rows of other chicks descending on your brood. Are you up to the challenge? Read on to see more.

Review: Draw Slasher

icon

Draw Slasher got my attention the second I saw the help screen. Any game that is explained by stating "your village is under attack from Zombie Monkey Pirates" will get a huge thumbs up in my book. Throw in some stylish graphics, a kicking guitar riff, and a control system that has quite a bit of subtlety, and you have a winner. How strong a winner? Stick Don't Stop Me Now on the jukebox and let's find out.

Review: The Visiting of Turjah

icon

Yes it's another vertical shooter, a genre that demands solid controls, a smooth gradient curve, the ability to keep everything legible, and to put a lot of graphics on the screen while not having any frame rate issues in terms of stuttering or slowing down of the action. The Visiting of Turjah might not have the speed, but she's got it where it counts.
