Eight(!) new games were released over the last 24 hours.

Note: These impressions are based off 8 minutes of gameplay and are not an accurate assessment of the full product.

apps360 Mega App Pack HD – 80 points – Other – Download

Several ‘apps’ like clock, massager and more in one collection. I can’t believe I’ve played 3 massage games in one week.

3D tank deathmatch game. Not bad but very simple.

 

 

mooAgent MOO: Maximum Overdeath – 240 points – Shooter – Download

Online 2d Deathmatch game with vehicles. Could be great fun over LIVE but the trial doesn’t let you play online.

Music sequencer. Those that have the skill to produce something good probably have much better apps already. It’s not terrible though.

Boulder Dash clone. It’s fun and I appreciated the good level design.

 

 

rpsAdvanced Rock Paper Scissors – 80 points – Card & Board – Download

Card based rock, paper scissors game. Not much fun.

This could be a great cross between Breakout and Peggle, unfortunately I couldn’t find anywhere in the game where it actually explains what you are trying to do.

Lunar Lander clone. Has some nice physics but seems really difficult once you are past the first couple of levels.

    For SMART SPLITTER, look at the lines on the bricks, they will shoot balls in those directions when hit. Point being to make a chain reaction to get rid of as many blocks as you can.

  2. Sam says:

    I understood that bit. My problem was I seemed to have 5 balls and more than 5 levels to get through? Can you catch the balls or something? Or is there a way to get more?

  3. Eric says:

    You get one more ball at the end of each level. Oh also you can rotate your ship thing to get it to bounce off the walls, which you’ll need to do once you’re past the first handful of levels.
