dotdot – Review
Do you like colors? Do you like dots? And what about colored dots? If your answer is yes then join the community and play dotdot an exciting and colorful game about popping dots. Sometimes I prefer the simpler games. Games that suit a phone/ tablet when I don’t feel I need a damn controller in my hand. A game that’s made to be played on a touch screen and you can do so with one finger...[Read More]
Car Park Control – Review
Car Park Control – Review Now I don’t drive, but it sure looks fun! Well that was my impression after the marathon gaming session I had with Car Park Control. You get the opportunity to crash cars, hit those annoying pedestrians and not have to wait for roadworks. Car Park Control is an incredibly easy game. All you do is draw a path for where you want the car to car. This style of gam...[Read More]
Shooting Club Zombies Attack – Review
Shooting Club Zombies Attack – Review I’m not sure what zombies have done lately, but it appears that more and more games are tasking you with killing them. A lot of these lots of big guns, running around for ammo and hiding in a corner while you reload. Shooting Club Zombies Attack puts a different spin on the zombie shooter, by combining it with a sniper game. Your put way out of ran...[Read More]
Sketchbook Squad – Review
Tilt your phone to move the player, the more you move it to the left or right, the faster your super hero will jump/move in that direction. Use the platforms, rockets, and super soda cans to climb as high as possible. Avoid lasers, robots, meteorites, choppers and other hazards. In true Orangepixel style this game can be a bit more challenging then the other games in this genre! Looks and p...[Read More]

Karateka Classic – Review
Karateka Classic – Review Karateka Classic is the original game shot for shot, with retro touches, such as sampled floppy disk noises, optional video scanlines, and the choice of a color CRT or a monochrome display (in amber or green screen).

Sonic The Hedgehog – Review
Sonic The Hedgehog – Review Sonic the hedgehog is what can only be described as a classic game. Its had sequels which tweaked the game and made it slightly better each time, but since it chucked the scroller mechanic it hasn’t been the same since. This appears to be the month of nostalgia as the original Sonic the hedgehog has been released and its the classic game we all know and love...[Read More]
Punch Quest – Review
Punch Quest – Review Punch Quest is on paper a side scrolling game, but when you play it you’ll see its so much more. You move by punching and if you stop punching you die, mix that in with old school RPG graphics and you have a great game. Hitting the left side of the screen uppercuts and slams opponents downward, while hitting the right performs a straightforward punch. As you move t...[Read More]
Kingdom Rush – Review
Kingdom Rush – Review Kingdom Rush is a tower defense game that pits you against waves of nasty enemies, where you defend yourself with knights, wizards and archers. This was a great online game I used to frequent on Armour Games, and was ecstatic to see it appear on the play store. This game rocks on the HTC One and I’m currently downloading to the Nexus 7. I feel this game is designe...[Read More]
Carmageddon Game Review
I admit it. For a gamer, I’m old. At my age I’m supposed to have more sense. I certainly should have matured past mindlessly violent video games. Way back in 1997 it was a different story. I was in my twenties and although the internet had already started to take off, my home was totally off-line. I was into PC gaming and used to buy PC magazines mainly for their cover CD crammed full ...[Read More]
Mosaique – Review
Mosaique – Review Mosaique may be the most simple minimal game I have ever played. There’s no narrative to justify why you are hitting blocks with other blocks. The tutorial isn’t even needed, as the game is very intuitive and easy to pick up The game is made up of seven rounds, and as you might guess each gets harder then the last. The static board is filled with a set of colou...[Read More]
