December seems to have brought a clutch of excellent games for the iPhone and iPod Touch, and the first I’ve got my mitts on is the splendid Rolando. It’s a bit like LocoRoco on the PSP, but uses the iPhone’s built-in accelerometers to allow control of your character by tilting or rotating the device using your lovely hands. It’s very intuitive, great fun to play and has wonderful stylised graphics, not to mention a soundtrack including ‘Ug’ by Mr. Scruff. Considering it only costs smallpence you’d be a fool not to pick it up (assuming you’ve already parted with several hundred pounds and a kidney for an iPhone or iPod Touch).
This is absolutely awesome, I was just thinking the other day how great it would be to play LocoRoco on my iPhone… AND NOW I CAN!
Thanks for bringing this to my attention!
I absolutely love the music on one of the early levels and it sounds VERY familiar, but unfortunately I can’t run the Shazam application at the same time. Boo, hiss, etc.
Ah, I didn’t realise that all of the music in Rolando was by Mr Scruff. It’ll be a Mr Scruff track then.
