iBlast Moki [App Store]
This game is amazing. Think Loco Roco cutesy with bombs and you get the drift. This one has been out for a while now but it’s a must on any iPhone or iPod Touch, so if you haven’t already, snag it now. Definitely a 5 star winner! Better still, get it while it’s a Moki sized dollar!!

Absolute mindless fun at the cost of a packet of chewing gum. Straw Ninja: Just Run [App Store] is the first in a series of ”One Touch Play” casual games from the geniuses at Digital Play. Everyone can play, no complex moves to remember – just run ya Ninjaness off! Global leaderboards utilising Openfeint will show off who is grand master of the tap and hold. With a very simple and addictive control system, even if you had your arm severed in combat you’d still have a chance of winning.
Keep him airborne to get big kamikaze points. Graphically whimsical with a sea of cool. Not as frantic as Canabalt but still awesome fun!
Another little gem. 3.5 stars.
Summer’s still a few months away here in Australia, but I’d still like to share a little game from Lemur Software called Bobble Surfer [App Store]. Ever since the Commodore 64′s California Games and even the dead and buried Atari Lynx remake of the same game, never before has surfing been implemented so well in a videogame. Graphically, it is very charming – with a subtle mix of 2D and 3D elements.
Ah the hustle and bustle of city life. We are surrounded by it for work and play. Enter Fare City: First Shift. Now this game has a classy style mixed with a jazz soundtrack. Think Flight Control with taxis and you get the gist of it. Simply tap and drag your fare and take them across Fare City to where they want to go. Sound easy? Far from it. Time limit bonuses, avoiding the increasing number of taxis and avoiding a gridlock of utter chaos will ensure you’re not at ease.
But it’s all in a New York Minute. Collect and deliver your fare fast enough and there’s a bounty of bonuses to be made. Take a wrong turn and a crash could spell the end of a bad day. Graphically, the game works well – especially with the feel and jazzy style of the city. It would be nice to see some varied maps in the next update. Best of all, it’s cheaper than the cologne your last taxi driver used.
Well worth a look. 4 stars.
