TouchGen: Despite taking inspiration from a variety of ancestors, Crumble Zone spins in a new direction. The game feels like four parts Asteroids, one part Space Invaders, with a garnish of Angry Birds Space. At it’s core, though, is a very simple yet addicting one-mode high score chase.
AR: Every now and then, I get to try out a game that initially baffles me, but ends up surprising me. Sometimes it’s good; other times, less than optimal.
JIG: Asteroids have long been the nemesis of creatures living on Earth. Just ask the dinosaurs. Or the makers of that gem of an arcade game, Asteroids. Or the NASA researchers who were trying to figure out if we'd get smacked with a big chunk of space rock in a few decades (spoiler: we won't). Crumble Zone from Rebel Twins understands that ancient fear and it capitalizes on it by letting you save the world over and over again by tossing little missiles towards the sky.
Pocket Gamer: A surprisingly thoughtful and nuanced casual shooter that, once you attune to its rhythm, proves difficult to put down.
