Babel Rising for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

Who hasn't wanted to play God on occasion? In Babel Rising you get to use six natural calamities to wipe out scores of humans trying to build the Tower of Babel. Use earthquakes, lightning, waves, wind, and of course the good old crushing with the finger of God to keep the tower from being built.

The action is fast, and while it might frustrate some people, I found half the fun was figuring out how to deploy the six different attacks. (The secret to many of them is leaked in the video below.) Fun graphics and fast play make Babel Rising a good choice for quick play on the go.

Fantasy Warrior Legends for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

Fantasy Warrior Legends is Digital Chocolate's latest entry into the role-playing game (RPG) competition on the iPhone. Fantasy Warrior has all the elements you would expect of this type of game: a somewhat odd backstory, special weapons, and of course gems to collect. The game is free, but if you choose to buy the gems, keep an eye on the e-wallet as it can get expensive quite quickly.

While all the usual elements are there, unfortunately there are a few bugs as well: It often takes multiple encounters with gems before your character can pick them up. Additionally, some players have complained of graphics anomalies, stuck characters etc., we didn't encounter any of those issues. Overall it's a standard RPG game that's a little rough around the edges. Maybe a re-visit after a few software updates is in order.
