Ovivo: iOS Review and Gameplay Videos

2 Replies
OVIVO By: Alex Vilassak (IZHARD)  I love when I see a game in the App Store that I never heard of before, but it looks really interesting and is reasonably priced, so I give it a shot and it turns out to be one of the best experiences I've had. Such is the case with IZHARD's OVIVO, one of the few platformers I've played through to the end.

We then meet the detectives who are trying Read more [...]

Death Coming By: Sixjoy Hong Kong Limited The Next Studio's Death Coming has a really clever premise and I was enjoying it for a while. The idea is, you died and now have to become a reaper (yes, kind of like Dead Like Me). But instead of just reaping specific people, your goal is to kill everyone in a scene. You don't have to do so in order to pass a level, only to get a higher score, so there is some forgiveness here. The problem is, I don't like games wasting my time, and this one does just Read more [...]
