Chocolate will make some people do the craziest things. The same is apparently true for fat little round creatures like Plump. Plump doesn’t do much other than consume any chocolate that he comes into contact with. Unfortunately for him, Plump can’t reach the morsels of chocolate that are spread across every level by himself. The player must help Plump get his goodies by rotating the entire level as he falls, guiding him through the maze-like stages.
It’s isn’t required to eat all the chocolate in each level to finish the level, but eating more chocolate will give players a higher score and a higher star rating after each level is finished. Going back through the levels to get more starts adds some life to the game, which is needed because it doesn’t take very long to play through the game’s 32 levels. The developer is working on more levels, however, and they should be available via update when they are finished.
As the iOS continues to mature as a gaming platform, we’re slowly starting to see something that’s become a staple of the other gaming platforms becoming much more prevalent: sequels. However, here we have a sequel for which the original was never on iOS; the first Continuity was actually a web-based game. So I was keen to take a look at Continuity 2: The Continuation, which brings the same game style but remade solely for iPhones and iPads.
It’s a lot of fun while also making gamers think a whole lot about the best way to head, but the ‘against-the-clock’ nature of the game seems like a bit of a strange decision for a game that often requires a good look over in order to find the best choice to solve the task at hand. What this also means is that simply going back over a level for a second or third time will vastly improve high scores. There are two things that need to be highly complimented here, though. The level design is amazing. The broken-up nature of the separate tiles means everything has to be very well thought out, and it is. And, the music is given a touch of detail that’s usually unseen in this type of game. Drum beats fade out as the tile-view is displayed and when platforming resumes, the mellow tones are given some kick alongside a sense of urgency as the beats are reintroduced and the volume raises.
In both cases, players must match as many sets of four or more gems as possible with the more matched at once, the more points and other powers are unlocked. Huge combos can be accrued with relative ease and it’s immensely satisfying hearing the voiceover exclaim ‘fever’ at you as and when it happens. It all feels very arcade like in nature and brings back many a fond memory of arcade puzzlers. There’s not a hint of slow down either with the graphical style consistently sharp and responsive throughout.
