Game Review: Shark Dash by Gameloft

Shark Dash is physics game that works more or less the same as Angry Birds.

GAMEPLAY: 4/5
Playing the game is fairly easy. In the first few levels you will be shown some tutorials on how to play it. In the game, you will have to aim Sharkee to the ducks and get coins as well. You will have to use the least possible tries that you can get at once.

PRESENTATION: 5/5
The graphics of Shark Dash is very high quality, at least on the iOS version. The details are just appearing crystal clear. The music when playing doesn't also distract the player from concentrating on it.

LASTING VALUE: 5/5
Shark Dash has started off with 96 levels included on it. The levels just continues to get difficult to play as you progresses on. There is also a 3-star rating system where you will have to get all the coins and the ducks as well as to get the least number of tries doing that - that will surely keep you replaying each levels, adding even more gameplay time.

OVERALL: 4.67/5
Easy gameplay, very clear graphics, nice sounds, and very long lasting value makes Shark Dash a must-have on your device!

Title: Shark Dash
Price: $0.99
Publisher: Gameloft

O2Jam U Lands on iOS

So who among you still remember the once popular music rhythm game O2Jam? Yes, you? Well here's a good news for you.

MOMO Corporation has released an iOS version of the popular online game in the name of O2Jam U. O2Jam U adopts the traditional top-down note pattern which is also found on the PC version. This is not a full-blown version like the one on the PC, as the characters are missing, and the music titles are not the same, meaning the familiar ones is not present in the iOS version - maybe yet.

You can play the game in portrait or landscape mode, but of course I prefer playing it in landscape. There are also options for changing the key modes, available are 2, 4, and 5 keys. Three level modes - easy, normal, and hard. Of course, speed control.

So far, I like it. Hopefully they will add more music titles, preferably the titles we're already familiar with. The game is now in the top charts in countries like Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.

It is available on App Store for iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch 3rd generation or later, and iPad for free, with in-app upgrades for items such as points.
