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).
