Gibbets 2 cashes in on its Internet fame, but doesn't quite make a smooth transition to the App Store thanks to simplified visuals and a control system not on par with the original.
GameWoof: When I saw that Gibbets 2 was on the Google Play store I was ecstatic. As a mainly flash game reviewer I have followed and played the Gibbets series since the beginning and to have the series on mobile devices is amazing. Even better is that the once flash series was picked up by Herocraft which has published some nice games. In fact, the Android version of Gibbets 2 received a much needed graphical boost. However, this mobile version also received a terrible infection of ads.
John Bedford (Modojo): The best discounted games on the App Store today.
Pocket Gamer: To those of us who aren't circus performers or mountain climbers, the idea of dangling from the end of a rope is a terrifying prospect.
Gibbets 2 enables you to come to the rescue of unfortunates as they dangle from ropes with a hangman's noose tightening around their necks.
Will your aim be steady enough to save them, or will you accidentally riddle their heads with arrows?
