148apps: Let’s just cut to the chase, Nom Nation is awesome. The amount of thought and care put into this throwback platformer rivals some of the classics it’s paying homage to. This game would be worth buying in actual stores so the fact that it is free on the App Store only sweetens the already delicious deal.
Gamesta.com has news on a game that's a bit different. Playerthree released a game that will teach 14-19 year olds the essential of nutrition, via gaming. It also acknowledges the power of farts. It takes all kinds.
Nom Nation is a PS Mini developed by Playerthree, with an emphasis on an education to healthy food. The platformer/puzzler is a great little game and certainly worth the money.
Pocket Gamer's Peter Willington writes: "Edutainment has a bad reputation, and with good reason: learning stuff is generally hard and boring. It doesn't have to be that way, though, and there are a few games doing the rounds at the moment that try to disguise their educational benefits. Nom Nation is such a game, but while it's a great-looking, cheery title that succeeds at teaching you about nutrition and a healthy diet, it's missing a little spit and shine, which detracts from the overall package"
