In the second part of a Friday game double-bill, Attila Katona reviews Robo, also for (nearly) every Symbian OS platform known to man. It's a level-based puzzler in isometric 3D and Robo is really rather good in its cute, pixellated way.
It's been around for a while for S60 and UIQ (in all varieties), but Krisse brings us a detailed review of scrolling shoot 'em up Blazar in the modern age. That'll be the 'we're all kicking our heels, seeing what else is out there, waiting for N-Gage to be properly available' age, then....
A couple of weeks ago over on All About N-Gage, we asked you which technically compatible S60 3rd Edition device you most wanted added to the upcoming Next Gen N-Gage gaming platform. The polls have now closed. The most voted-for phone won by quite a wide margin, and it was quite a surprising choice too. To find out what it was, as well as the full results with a touch of analysis, click here...
One of the best games in the Symbian world just hit UIQ 3 smartphones. Oval Racer doesn't sound very exciting, track wise, but it more than makes up for this in terms of full-on 3D real time action and realistic computer opponents. It's compatible with the Sony Ericsson P990, W950, M600 and P1i.
Krisse has been reviewing arcade puzzler Li-Nuggz, a colourful and dynamic game for all Symbian platforms except UIQ 2. Verdict? Plenty of playability and great design, but you might want to turn down the sound effect volume!
If it's nearly Christmas then it must be time for an icy puzzler. Right on cue come Herocraft with Snow Lines, and our very own Attila Katona has been playing it for days to bring you a detailed review. Not that one is needed, to be honest, it's a great game, you already know how to play it and there's a trial version for every platform under the sun....
Guest writer Attila Katona is something of a Sudoku nut, having survived the initial public craze and come out the other end still addicted. So when he raves about a new Sudoku game/engine, it's worth listening up. Here's his detailed write-up of the brand new Sudoku Time.
If you don't know what a 'Flurky' is then head for Krisse's great review of a great game. Flurkies is a platform puzzler and aside from a few colour oddities comes up trumps in almost every department. And the game is available for all S60 and UIQ platforms, so what are you waiting for?
You'll have spotted some of Krisse's recent game reviews for AAS - now there are video 'walkthrough' reviews as well, hosted on the NeonCherry site. Here are the links for the video reviews of CrazySoft's The Final Battle, Croker and the freeware classic S-Tris 2.
