Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars [App Store] was quietly released into the App Store this evening. Chinatown Wars for the iPhone seems to lie somewhere in between the DS and PSP versions in regards to graphical quality, but as far as pure GTA gameplay, everything so far seems intact. (Complete with an awful lot of […]

We will have more details shortly, including a gameplay video. For the time being, here are the screenshots from iTunes: […]

Sky Force is a traditional vertical arcade shooter in which you must battle across seven different levels, […]
The iPhone has attracted a notable number of Amiga game ports since the App Store went live. Worms, Pinball Dreams / Fantasies, Krypton Egg, Beneath a Steel Sky — the list goes on. For those unaware, the Amiga was an extremely innovative platform, released in 1985 by Commodore, that saw rather limited success outside of […]
One of our very favorite iPhone games — one that we come back to and actually play “for fun” (perish the thought!) — is Rocketcat Games’ Hook Champ [App Store], which we reviewed back in October. We discussed the game in detail with Rocketcat’s own Kepa Auwae in TouchArcade Podcast #9. He gave us a […]
There’s no doubt that the App Store is absolutely loaded with different physics games, and many with very similar gameplay to Tumbledrop [App Store], but few are anywhere near as cute, colorful, or filled with rainbows for that matter. Gameplay amounts to making your way through the 60 included levels (with more coming soon per […]

When we took a look at the first Heavy Mach, we thought it was a fun side-scrolling shooter with room for improvement. Nearly a year later, developer IndieAn has released Heavy Mach 2 [App Store], a greatly enhanced sequel that abandons side-scrolling for a top down perspective among other changes and enhancements. Gameplay in Heavy […]

Broken Sword: The Director’s Cut promises an update on the adventure classic […]
Attaching the word ‘Dante’ to any piece of entertainment suggests that a hellish experience is in store. Consider the risible 1997 Pierce Brosnan vehicle, Dante’s Peak, or the entire filmography of Joe Dante. Okay, so Gremlins and Inner Space were pretty good. Regardless of that, you have to say it was a wise move on part […]
There’s nothing worse than having a cracking idea only to waste the opportunity by being too tentative in the execution. Likewise, going way too far and blowing it is equally frustrating. The happy medium is the territory for which to strive and it’s never easy to find. Little Metal Ball, despite promising moments, doesn’t quite […]
