SiStevens says: "I have always believed that the platform genre is one of the hardest to create and develop on the iOS with one of the hardest parts being the implementation of virtual buttons for controllers and the lack of originality. With Sola Rola, Square Enix has not only embraced that challenge it has taken it out for a meal at a fancy restaurant as well. And, for the most part, it has been successful."
GameDynamo - "Running off a lighthearted-yet-barebones plot involving two space-traveling blobs who eventually have to save the universe from a malevolent fiend, in SolaRola you control your circular hero and navigate him through sixty 2D stages spread across six alien worlds."
TouchArcade: SolaRola [$0.99], a 2D platformer from Square Enix, has a lot going for it. It's charming, accessible, and realistic physics that players manipulate to solve increasingly complex puzzles. Unfortunately, it's also rather bland.
AppSpy: Perhaps more suited to younger players, Solarola has you playing a rolling alien blob jumping around worlds, avoiding goo, and reaching the level's goal. It lacks that something special, and the sound effects certainly don't help matters.
