The Appera: Pirate’s Treasure is a shooter, that you can only describe as like Minigore. It has all the elements of it, with different graphics and a different level of depth. This makes the game innately familiar, as well as an extension of the play you already know and invariably love.
"3D Bio Ball is the modern Marble Madness for a new generation that demands more substance with their ball rolling physics playground puzzlers. It’s even got a bit of story and a helpful robot to motivate you through the adventure." -Kyle Hilliard, GameZone
3D Bio Ball looks like a lot of fun, but Pirate's Treasure seems like the kind of game I could really get into. Why can't these be on a home console?!
3D Bio Ball kind of reminded me of Borderlands. Not in gameplay obviously, but just the style. I think it was the helpful little robot guy.
3D Bio Ball looks better to me, as an experienced i-gamer, simply because I'm really, really sick of dual-stick shooters. They used to be one of my favorite genres, but iPhone devs really overdid it. On the other hand, I love games like Marble Blast (a claaassic XBLA title).
148apps: Is there anything new that can be said about pirates? Probably not, which is also why Chillingo’s new iPhone game, Pirate’s Treasure, seems more than a bit tired from the get-go.
Pirate's treasure is a survival shooter very similar to games like minigore, idracula, and more. In fact, after playing this cartoon shooter it is apparent this app took a few pages from the minigore playbook.
