TSFT Episode #69: The Head and Feet Meet and Greet

We all knew the joke was going to be made, so now that giggles and chuckles are diminished, let’s talk TSFT. This week, we bring our newest member, video editor extraordinaire Tim Smith to the show. We talk some Star Trek, an iOS game about the Rock, and we end it with a rap battle. It’s a fantastic one, if you feel like getting to know us better, please listen to this. Next week, we’ll be talking about the Xbox [...]

Fish Out of Water Review – In-App Porpoises

I haven’t had too much time for big, expansive games as of late and instead have been using my small amounts of time here and there to absorb smaller games, mostly on my iPhone. Luckily, Halfbrick Studios has me covered. I didn’t know anything about Fish Out of Water before I purchased it. All it took was seeing that Halfbrick had released a new game to get me onto the App Store. Halfbrick have created most of the only iOS games to [...]

[Review] Ridiculous Fishing – Gaze Into the Abyss and You’ll Find the Abyss Gazing Into You

How easy would it be for me to just say Vlambeer’s Ridiculous Fishing is the best fishing game I’ve ever played? Aside from some mini-games in titles such as Legend of Zelda or Deadly Premonition, I haven’t played any fishing games so it wouldn’t be hard at all. So what more then, could I say about Ridiculous Fishing besides the fact that it is indeed, the best fishing game I have ever played? Maybe I’ll just start from the beginning.

[News] XCOM: Enemy Unknown Announced For iOS

At the tail end of 2012, the game EVERYBODY at Twinfinite HQ was playing was XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Hell, my man Muaz Zekeria kept a log of his playthrough with all of us as his team. While it was released on PS3, 360, and (its proper place…let’s be honest) PC, it didn’t get any love in the handheld realm. Well, hang on to your ray guns because this game is coming out on iOS! At this point Firaxis hasn’t released [...]

[Review] Temple Run: Oz – Flying Baboons and Crumbling Roads

The latest release by Imangi Studios and Disney Mobile is another Disney-fied version of their endless runner games, but this time it’s inspired by Temple Run: 2 and based on the newly-released Oz: The Great and Powerful. In this game, you play as The Wizard (called Oz), who is running from angry flying baboons, surely sent from the Wicked Witch. Following closely after the release of Temple Run 2, this title also has a slew of new features that hadn’t been developed [...]

[News] Ron Gilbert and Clayton Kauzlaric bringing pirates to iOS

Last night (at the time of writing), Ron Gilbert updated his blog with the above map of the full innards of The Cave’s cave (reviewed on Twinfinite), and then added a note to the end saying he’s departed from Double Fine in the wake of his pursuit of more mobile gaming fun with Clayton Kauzlaric. If you aren’t familiar with their work, check out their free iOS game The Big Big Castle! (I wrote about it once), which lets you [...]

[SXSW] Laying Pipe With Pipe Trouble

Games with environmental appeal usually flounder. Mario Sunshine for example has been remembered with disinterest and while Rainbow Rapture was cute, it was also somewhat demented. So when I stumbled across Pipe Trouble at SXSW, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. When I read that music was provided by members of a band whose naughty name rhymes with ducked up, I figured there had to be something here.

[News] Sega Announces Sonic Dash for Mobile

Having an endless runner featuring Sonic the Hedgehog seems like a no-brainer, so some folks might be pleasantly surprised to know that today, Sega finally have announced just that. There aren’t too many details yet, just that it’ll be titled Sonic Dash and supposedly be available soon. “Soon” could mean anything, though. We may see it as soon as this week, or may have to wait until next month. The other thing we know is that it’s coming for iOS [...]

[News] EA and Tetris Company Team Up for Mobile Game Tetris Blitz

Today, EA and The Tetris Company announced they are working on a new game for both iOS and Android devices titled Tetris Blitz, which is going to be totally free, and offer a new spin on the special, iconic puzzle game we all know and love. It’s slated for release in Spring of this year. In this game, you’ll have a two-minute timer to clear as many lines as you can, and there’ll even be stuff like Frenzy Mode and [...]

[News] Disney Mobile releases new free game: Where’s My Valentine?

Fans of Swampy and/or Perry may be delighted to know that Disney Mobile have released a brand new, free app for both iOS and Android called Where’s My Valentine? Where’s My Valentine? features 12 fresh, love-themed levels for everyone to enjoy. There are six levels for Swampy and then another six for Perry, with the option of buying the full version for more whenever you like. Though kind of short, the free version still offers a cute nugget for being [...]
