Chicken Frenzy is split up into various stages each with a different challenging setup. One to four chickens sit at the top of the screen and drop eggs down as they lay them. As the eggs fall the player must use their finger to draw lines of rope that will safely guide the eggs down into the baskets below. Depending on the difficulty of the stage, the chickens may lay different color eggs. In this case, the eggs must be sorted and the player must guide them into the buckets labeled for that specific egg type. This can get tricky when there are several different eggs dropping down at the same time.
The game’s physics are well done and players must be careful not to let the eggs fall too far or too fast or else they will break. The stages are well designed and players can even tilt the device to change the way the eggs roll and fall. This simple game has a surprising degree of variation and that keeps the game fresh from stage to stage. Players will enjoy Chicken Frenzy, even if they risk ending up with some egg on their face.

For a while I had this idea about taking a photo of myself every day for a year or two, then compiling the images into a kind of stop-motion video that showed me aging in pseudo real-time. Then I thought it might make a decent art project (or something) to do something similar, only with a baby as it grows into whatever it is babies grow into these days. It appears as though I wasn’t the only person who’s thought of this, which isn’t exactly a surprise given the billions of people on the planet, as

Let me start off with a warning. Panda Picnic is a match-3 game. Experienced and long-time iOS gamers are likely recoiling in horror, as the match-3 game is very overplayed on iOS. Of course, one cannot ignore this genre of game forever, and Panda Picnic adds an asynchronous multiplayer twist to it.
The competitive aspect of Panda Picnic is what keeps the gameplay feeling fresh despite the commonly-used mechanic. It feels like playing a game of 8-ball billiards, where sometimes the preferred plays are the ones that won’t leave the opponent with a good shot on their turn. The coins element is very well-implemented, as it is possible to earn coins in the game, so it never feels like purchasing coins is all that much of a significant advantage, and re-spinning feels like a tactical decision that can be used often, but still deployed strategically. It’s a great balance. The game also uses Facebook Connect for account synchronization and backup.

Cowboy Guns puts players in control of “The Kid,” a mysterious stranger who must try to stop The Crimson Jackals from terrorizing the denizens of the old west. However, he has a mysterious connection to this gang of violent strangers that becomes unveiled throughout the story. The game is a dual-stick shooter, where players use four weapons: a revolver, shotgun, gatling gun, and grenades in order to help kill the various bad guys.
The production values in Cowboy Guns are often lacking; the graphics often show off their low-quality textures. As well, there’s a whole host of spelling errors; did anyone actually run through this game to check for spelling errors? Chillingo are typically known for their high production values, and this feels very low-caliber for them. The music often gets to be grating and repetitive, though it is of good quality. The game just doesn’t really do a whole lot better than other games released in this genre. Other games have better boss fights, better controls, and just better core dual-stick gameplay.

More memorable titles from days gone by are set to be released soon with another 9 titles from three different countries of origin added to the roster. Originally stemming from North America comes action adventure title Black Magic, supply and demand orientated multiplayer game M.U.L.E and RPG Alternate Reality: The City. From Germany comes shooter Enforcer, soccer management sim Bundesliga Manager and R-Type clone Denaris. Finally, from UK studios, is sci-fi side scrolling shoot em up Uridium, puzzle shooter Paradroid and my personal favorite ninja based platformer First Samurai.
