TouchGen: Darkness is one half of our world, and we fear what we cannot see hidden beyond the light. This is where Penumbear is plunged. Somewhere far down in the darkest basement where light is a memory, and only a few scattered fireflies keep it from disappearing completely. With the power to unlock doors, and flicking switches these fireflies become the most important allies Penumbear has ever had. His quest to escape this dark, dangerous and evil castle is just beginning.
John Bedford (Modojo): There's something for everyone in today's bargain round-up.
PadGadget: Penumbear is a unique-looking platformer. It’s dark and dreary with a haunting soundtrack, but focuses on the usage of light to get through various obstacles, which is a great concept. The game stars Penumbear himself, who is a little bear that wakes up in a dark castle basement.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): With so many games on the App Store these days, it can be difficult to know what's hot and, well, not. Granted, you can always visit Modojo to see which titles are best, but today, we decided to go for a much broader view. That said, here are the best reviewed iPhone and iPad games on Metacritic.
