Coming out on pretty much every different console and platform there is, Tetris has became one of the most popular mobile phone games to ever be released. Actually, it has came to be the number one most downloaded mobile phone game of all time.

Spiders iPhone Game

Ever played the game Deadly Creatures for the Wii? If you liked this action game then I know you will definitely enjoy the iPhone game by the name of Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor. It is similar to Deadly Creatures in the fact that they both involve spiders. Another feature that makes this game unique is the hand drawn art. The spider, backgrounds and bugs are all hand drawn. This creates for a feature that causes the game to appear as if it is popping straight out of a notebook. It also makes the game very unique because these days you don’t usually see hand drawn art in games.

Harvey Smith, a designer for Arkane Studios, has been hyping up this game on his Twitter ever since it was released a few months ago.

Swipe your finger across the screen to move your spider. Create webs that trap the onscreen bug into your web. Use different maneuvers in order to move from level to level.

Although this concept seems very unappealing, I ensure you that you will enjoy it. Maybe spiders don’t necesarilly seem to your liking. Even if this is true I know you will like this game. For $2.99 I really suggest you purchase this game.

Bethesda iPhone Game

LTNChica — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 04:54:44 +0000

The game Bethesda for the iPhone that has remained very mysterious has began to confuse many people. With this game being developed by the same developer as Fallout 3, many people have come to look forward to the release of this iPhone game. Kotaku reports, when asked how the game is coming along, said that it is “getting closer”. Bethesda’s Todd Howard was also interviewed recently. During this interview he mentioned that the mobile game had to be put on hold around the same time in which Rage developer id Software was purchased by Bethesda’s parent company ZeniMax. The id head John Carmack now owns some part of Bethesda’s game. However, he is currently working on several different games for the iPhone. This leads people to believe that it may take a while for this game to be released.

It seems that there still needs to be a lot of changes made to the game before they can begin to start work the proper way on its iPhone title. One thing that many people want to be answered is that they wonder what the game even is. When Howard answered, he did not make and specifications as to what the game is.
