AppAdvice: Avast ye mateys, there be gold in this thar app. Pirate’s Treasure is the newest dual stick shooter to grace the App Store, and this one provides a pirate theme. That’s not all as the game presents levels in a full on campaign mode set up like a platformer.
"3D Bio Ball is the modern Marble Madness for a new generation that demands more substance with their ball rolling physics playground puzzlers. It’s even got a bit of story and a helpful robot to motivate you through the adventure." -Kyle Hilliard, GameZone
3D Bio Ball looks like a lot of fun, but Pirate's Treasure seems like the kind of game I could really get into. Why can't these be on a home console?!
3D Bio Ball kind of reminded me of Borderlands. Not in gameplay obviously, but just the style. I think it was the helpful little robot guy.
3D Bio Ball looks better to me, as an experienced i-gamer, simply because I'm really, really sick of dual-stick shooters. They used to be one of my favorite genres, but iPhone devs really overdid it. On the other hand, I love games like Marble Blast (a claaassic XBLA title).
148apps: Is there anything new that can be said about pirates? Probably not, which is also why Chillingo’s new iPhone game, Pirate’s Treasure, seems more than a bit tired from the get-go.
The Appera: Pirate’s Treasure is a shooter, that you can only describe as like Minigore. It has all the elements of it, with different graphics and a different level of depth. This makes the game innately familiar, as well as an extension of the play you already know and invariably love.
