Rotating spikes
Tilt the iPhone to move a puck through amazing mazes. App Store link (0,79 €)
This game works a little like the well known labyrinth app. But there are some major differences. The maze is not limited to the screen size. It extends to the upper screen edge. By tilting the iPhone left and right you’re moving the puck left and right and by tilting up and down you’re actually moving the maze while the puck stays in the vertical centre of the screen. This way, there is much more space for a different kinds of obstacles and other gameplay elements.

The animations always look smooth and colourful. Read the rest of this entry »
