Selected Articles

  • "9/10"
    - Edge Staff on IMPOSSIBLE ROAD, Edge
  • "Think Super Monkey Ball, if masochistic Super Hexagon creator Terry Cavanagh were Sega's level designer."
    - Mark Brown on IMPOSSIBLE ROAD, Pocket Gamer
  • "The remarkable thing is that Food Run feels like a real platformer, much more so than any of its competition on iOS, yet is built on such simple controls. You'll never be able to get something as good as Super Mario World on a touch-screen, but this feels as close as it's possible to get."
    - Rich Stanton on Food Run, Eurogamer
  • "We have been hooked and can highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys word games."
    - Tim Rattray on WordCrasher, Slide to Play
  • "Not only is this game cute (seriously, you can be a walking hamburger that squeaks out a grunt when it jumps), it’s extremely well-polished and altogether beautiful."
    - Sam Nolan on Food Run, StickSkills
  • "The ball physics feel great with the swerve and power of the ball reacting perfectly to your finger swipe"
    - Craig Willis on Kick Flick HD, TouchReviews
  • "WordCrasher for iPhone and iPod Touch comes highly recommended to word game enthusiasts everywhere. It is a visual delight and addictive in its play."
    - Mary Ann Neder on WordCrasher, AppModo
