Stranded: Mysteries of Time iPhone, Glu Mobile [GDC 2010]

Glu Mobile keeps a good catalogue of mobile games outside of the iPhone world so don’t be surprised if they port games from that collection to the iPhone, such as this one. Take a look at the upcoming puzzle game: Stranded: Mysteries of Time iPhone:

Where as the first version of this series on the mobile is very survival driven, Stranded for the iPhone promises to be much more story driven. You start the game being chased with a T-Rex then it’s YOUR task to avoid getting killed.

How To Train Your Dragon, Glu Mobile [GDC 2010]

Glyder and Glyder 2 are two of my favorite iPhone games ever so to have the opportunity to replay them again with “new skin” will be amazing. How To Train Your Dragon (an official movie tie in) does the job:

One of the first few things you’ll notice about the game is the removal of the pressure thing that made both Glyder’s challenging for casual gamers. How To Train Your Dragon attempts to correct that.

Beat It! Review: This Will Make Michael Jackson Proud!

I’m sorry to disappoint the expectant ones, but this has nothing to do with the late Michael Jackson (outside the name of course). Instead, it is a really interesting take on the whole rhythm game genre.

Beat It! ($2.99; FREE)

beat-it-0

Instead of trying to tap notes when the reach a certain place on the screen, you’re actually trying to repeat a rhythm created by two or more instruments. Personally I really haven’t gotten the hang of it yet, but I still find it much more fascinating than the whole Tap Tap Revenge style of game play. Plus, this particular game has a certain style about it that really has me hooked.

Alley Gator Review: Sewer Roaming Fun. Literally, Figuratively!

Alley Gator is more of a casual game, which is something Glu Mobile have steered away from in their past few releases.

Alley Gator ($0.99; FREE)

Alley Gator-1

This is a game that is extremely simple to pick up and play for only 2 or 3 minutes if you really want to. This is a game that I have played very basic versions of before on the pc, usually as a dodgy flash game. I haven’t seen any of these titles on the App Store before Alley Gator, but after playing this game it seems like a perfect match to the accelerometer.

TRANSFORMERS G1 Awakening iPhone: More Than Meets The Eye TBS?

I seriously love me some Autobots/Decepticons rivalry so naturally I’m a big fan of the Transformer movies (and Shia LaBeouf).

You can imagine my glee when I found out Glu Mobile is porting their turn based strategy mobile game TRANSFORMERS G1 Awakening to the iPhone:

From IGN, the mobile game is “Based on the original story of Transformers, use the strengths of each Autobot to defeat the Decepticons in turn-based strategic battles. Capture sources of Energon power to reactivate, repair or upgrade your Transformers”

Glyder 2 Review: Soars Mightier And Higher Than The First!

Glu Mobile has released a sequel to the previously No.1 game Glyder. This game has improved on what we got in the first game, but add more excitement and extras!

Glyder 2 ($0.99)

I had never previously picked up Glyder mainly due to the fact that I didn’t think it would appeal to me. At the time I had various flying games and didn’t think another item collecting game would be fun for me.  The minute I picked this up, I fell in love with it.
