Pocket Gamer: While it was always going to get squashed under the weight of post-Angry Birds expectation, Amazing Alex does a decent job. It might not be Rovio's finest work, but it shows there's life in the company outside of pigs and disgruntled birds.
John Bedford (Modojo): Finnish publisher Rovio has slashed the prices of the iPad editions of its best-selling franchises. Angry Birds fans can now get the HD editions of some of the studio's most popular titles for just $0.99.
AppSafari: Amazing Alex is a puzzle game by Rovio Entertainment Ltd for iPhone, iPad, and iTouch. Rovio are the creators of the iOS sensation Angry Birds. If you haven’t heard of Angry Birds by now I’d highly suggest you check your pulse. The game took the world by storm and won the hearts and minds of children and adults alike. Once the people at Rovio felt they had sufficiently covered every possible major holiday and seasonal remake of Angry Birds it became clear that it was about time (past due, in fact) for a new game. Enter Amazing Alex: the latest original puzzle game by Rovio.
GameDynamo - "along came Rovio, the creator of Angry Birds, who bought the rights to the game from the creators. With free reign to do what they please, Rovio took Casey's Contraptions, polished it up, added some puzzles of their own, and rereleased the refurbished game under a new title: Amazing Alex."
