Welcome to the weekly iPhone Quality Index (Qi) games round-up, giving you the LOWdown on the HIGH scorers every Friday on these illustrious pages.
As you may already know, Qi trawls the web for iPhone game reviews from the worlds most respected online and print sources.
Qi then applies its own magic formula to each site (such as 148Apps, Macworld, and Gamezebo) to establish a single definitive Qi score for each iPhone app and game.
Snuggle up close
Bumping and rocking over Qis notoriously competitive terrain with a wild 9.2 score from a quartet of critiques is Snuggle Truck, a physics-based driving game guaranteed to offend PETA activists worldwide.
On one level, the aim of Owlchemy Labss perilous racer is relatively straightforward: transport a wagonful of adorable animals to the local wildlife park before they join the ranks of the dodo and the Tyrannosaurus rex.
Toss in a few dozen sand dunes, twelve sticks of dynamite, and some road ignorant moose, though, and Snuggle Truck springs into gear. Slide to Play adds that "bonuses for arriving at the zoo border quickly and without spilling any passengers make Snuggle Truck feel like a constant balancing act between speed and accuracy."
Playing with fire
Bulkypixs ode to puzzling pyromaniacs everywhere Burn it All employs whats known in our business as the matryoshka principle or the nested doll principle. In other words, you peel away one layer of gameplay only to discover another underneath. And then another...
Set a conflagration in motion by moving your fires around the level in a particular order, choosing your uniquely devastating pyro carefully blue flames can torch wood, for instance, while green flames blaze through multiple objects.
148Appss searing interest in Burn it All was ignited by its "combination of both action and puzzle elements. Its not just enough to figure out the proper plan, or to be able to skillfully navigate the puzzles you have to be able to do both."
Par for the course
Imagine for a second the bastard offspring of Flight Control and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12. You can stop it now, for Endless Wave Softwares Par Out Golf IS that devils child.
Draw the optimum path onscreen from tee to pin across two 18-hole courses, all the while memorising the route. Why the latter? Because just when you most expect it, a cloud obscures your view and the fun ensues.
