I’m now regularly contributing to the iPhone coverage over at GamesRadar, so I’ll be posting bits from their iPhone Game of the Day section here and there. This latest installment covers Pizza Boy, a super charming game inspired by the classic Mario titles with a fun pizza-centric twist. Looking for a good platformer that’s tough as nails? Give this one a shot.
Check out my full write-up here at GamesRadar.
“Even the most microscopic worlds are worth exploring. Nothing proves that point quite like Small Worlds — a game that has no enemies, no power-ups, no traps, no clear goals, and no story. It’s a game that’s simply about exploring the unknown and uncovering the mysteries found therein. Oddly enough, that core premise is enough to draw you voraciously through the short adventure in its entirety and leave you craving even more beautifully pixilated landscapes to venture through when it’s all over. “

“Any RPG fan will tell you it can take between from 30 to 60 hours of hardcore level-grinding, adventuring, and monster battling to beat an average game. If that seems way too long, you’ll greatly appreciate Half-Minute Hero’s warp-speed take on the classic RPG. It boils down the typical trappings of the genre into their primordial elements and douses the whole thing with rocket fuel. You’ve got 30 seconds to save the world – try not to freak out.”
