The Great Giana Sisters, first released in 1987, was so scandalously similar to Super Mario Bros. that Nintendo immediately reacted and succeeded in having the title struck from the market. Available for only a short while before going M.I.A., the game nonetheless managed to become a hit in Europe and thereafter to garner an enduring [...]
Bounce On, the first edition, was one of the first and most successful platformer on the iPhone, and it was definitely a blockbuster in terms of sales. I would have to say that it was a good Mario clone, but it had enough differentiations to be called an original title. Either way, I absolutely enjoyed [...]
Until recently, ninja games on the iPhone had been about as much fun as ritual suicide. Then December rolled along and brought with it Mika Mobile’s OMG Pirates!, the App Store’s first (and only) Must Have ninja game. And then Christmas hit, and while sugar plum fairies danced ’round our heads, another ninja game did [...]
Not since the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has pizza seen such love in a game. In Blacksmith Games‘ Plushed, pizza is practically a currency. It’s a frequent subject of conversation, you can use it to entice creatures to your aid and even wear it as perfume. Pizza power!!
Plushed is a pretty run-of-the-mill platformer set in [...]
Appvent Calendar isn’t the only thing Blacksmith Games is hosting with their new platformer Plushed that has finally been released.

Apple’s approval times seem to fluctuate quite rapidly, but the Christmas time seems to [...]
I recently picked up Silent Swords by Oniric Games and I must say that it is an attractive game. The game puts you in the role of a ninja that has been captured by a military organization. Your mission is to get out of the complex using all the ninja skills available to you.
The saccharine [...]
You know iPhone games have travelled pretty far when platformers actually work. This seems to be the case with Earthworm Jim on the iPhone, and while the controls were my worst fear, they have definitely been improved and revamped to work.
If you don’t know what Earthworm Jim is, it’s a platformer that has been on [...]
First there was Bionic Commando, and then came Austin Powers. Now, there’s a new swinger in town: Hook Champ’s Jake T. Hooker. Yeah, baby, yeah!
Hook Champ hearkens back to a simpler time, when men could raid tombs without carrying an arms locker on their back, when the only tools necessary for plundering dead civilizations were [...]
We’ve seen screenshots. We’ve seen hands-on videos. But we have yet to see the trailer… until now. Gameloft has finally released a trailer for the SEGA masterpiece known as Earthworm Jim, a platformer that made it onto the Gameboy and SEGA machines quite a long time ago. I’ve played this game on the Gameboy many [...]
