[読んだ] Boxed In iPhone iPod Touch app review

All in all Boxed In is a good but not great app. It approaches greatness and could perhaps get there with an update that fixes the controls and adds some sound. Boxed In does have long, challenging, and solid gameplay to make it one of the most solid apps of 2009. The app is free for a limited time though so for the money it is a very good app and definitely worth a download. Go download Boxed In.

アップデートの余地がたくさんあるゲームに見受けられますね。
今後に期待。

[読んだ] Samurai: Way of the Warrior Review for iPhone | Touch Arcade

 

219302_4 219302_3

The game has a storyline that is well incorporated throughout presented in comic book style cut scenes that honestly conveys a strong sense of adventure and bloodletting. You control the fate of Daisuke Shimada, the wandering samurai as he ventures through the countryside dealing with the villainous Lord Hattoro and his two henchmen Kumo and Orochi. Of course, they have a significant army to carry out their misdeeds, and let’s just say that Daisuke doesn’t take too kindly to village bullies.

Hack and slash is the name of the game, and you’ll be doing plenty of that. Samurai has two game modes: Story and Dojo. Story mode consists of 7 chapters and variety of different enemies presented like a short novel or Japanese DVD. Dojo mode is a survival mode where Daisuke battles fellow hack and slashers in a ring for as long as possible.

日本好きな外国人はたまらんゲームでしょうね。

ゼペット代表取締役 宮川義之氏
いいアイデアさえあれば,次々にゲームができちゃうんですよね。世界でランキング上位にあるタイトルは,もはや技術を問われることより,いわば“味”の競争になっています。そこに気づき,自分達のビジョンをしっかりと持てるかどうかが勝敗を決めるといってもいいでしょう」(宮川氏)

「”味”の競争」とは言い得て妙。
これはゲームに限らない話にも思います。

[読んだ] Inkvaders – Games, Reviews – 148Apps – iPhone App and Game Reviews and News

Inkvaders is a relatively standard side-scrolling shooter in the same realm as Zombieville USA. In fact, Inkvaders is Zombieville USA, just better… and so much prettier. Have I mentioned how good this game looks? The basic premise is that you walk forward through the level killing aliens and collecting money for new guns to… you guessed it… kill aliens. Why are you killing aliens? Because you are a man, and that’s what men do!
