Xtreme Mountain Busing for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review
We've taken a few weeks off from the video app reviews, but with fall fast approaching, it's time to get back into the swing of things. And speaking of fall, that also means it is back to school season, and bright yellow buses will be showing up on all the local streets.
One place you probably won't find buses would be rocky precipices and cliffs. Unless you are playing Xtreme Mountain Busing.
XMB as the cool kids call it (no cool kids were interviewed for this review) puts you in charge of getting a group of kids to school on time, despite some ridiculous terrain. You have to climb rocks, and avoid toppling the bus by using the built-in hydraulics (of course!) to stabilize the bus. Oh, and don't forget to pick up more kids along the way.
The look of the game is reminiscent to the animation of TV's South Park, and the gameplay is fine, but this is definitely more of a quick, timekiller game, than a 40-hour epic. There's a free version, so you might want to try that before buying the full version.
Here's a look:
