Escape From NOM, while not providing anything exceptionally new to the app store, certainly has a winning combination of fun, humor, and challenge. With 30 free levels, a level designer, and facebook connectivity, trying this game out is a no brainer.

After playing some very early builds of Escape from NOM, I’d been looking forward to getting my hands on the final version. Unfortunately, it appears the game is more fun at brief at press events than it is in longer sessions.
