Todays iPhone and iPod Touch application review is going to be on an accelerometer based game called, Hydro Tilt. Hydro Tilt is a puzzle type game that is a lot like Super Monkey Ball, but with better controls. In Hydro Tilt you play as a tiny water droplet and you slide around the map in search of the ice cube. Once you find the ice cube you will freeze into a ball of ice. After becoming a ball of ice you have to make your way back to the metal bowl that will end the level. Overall it’s a fun game that has many puzzles you have to solve to get to that ice cube. Even though the price is a bit steep, it has many levels and is a game you can play for hours. Hydro Tilt is available in the App Store for $4.99.
Today’s iPhone and iPod Touch application review is going to be an application that is most addicting and almost impossible to put down – Snail Mail. Snail Mail is a racing type game based on the use of the iPhone accelerometer or the touch of your finger to navigate down the fast paced track. You are given a tiny snail that talks to you repeatedly through the game telling you, “I have to deliver the mail!” This is a fast paced game as you travel rapidly down the track collecting packages and dodging the spiked monsters as you go. Once you reach the end of the track you are informed of how many packages you picked up along the way, which adds to your overall score. As you move through the levels, the tracks get more difficult and becomes harder for you and your little snail to come out alive. Overall I liked this game a lot. It’s extremely difficult to put down, you just want to keep playing and playing! This application, Snail Mail, can be purchased from the iTunes App Store for only $1.99.
