Touchaholics: For a while Pirates were a fad in the world. Together with the ninjas and other historical people they were mentioned everywhere, people wanted to be like them, talked like them and even a Pirate holiday was born. Unfortunately the AppStore never saw such rush, and even though there are pirate games out there, they were overshadowed by the current fad in the world: Zombies. So it is nice to see a change for a while.
The Quality Index champions the best games on iPhone from the land of the Royal Family, the E-Type Jag, and David Beckham. Yep, Britain.
Plenty of dark British humour coursing through the veins of suicidal businessman Karoshi and Hector the terrorist negotiator.
JohnnyTwoShoes's Arachnadoodle almost pulls off the feat of the year - distracting us from Pirates of the Caribbean 4 for more than 12 minutes.
AppVee:
The app store is full of games that reference pirates but rarely will you find a game completely devoted to pillaging and plundering. Plunderland for the iPhone and iPod Touch is an app that takes the life of a pirate and makes it into a game. If any of you have ever played Rolando, you will immediately recognize the similarities in gameplay and graphics. It has a cartoon look that captures the free-spirit lifestyle of fictional pirates.
AppSafari: Ahoy, matey! Ye have the look of a landlubber about ye, but not to fret. There be room on the seven seas for all pirates at heart thanks to Johnny Two Shoes’ hit offering, Plunderland. The game’s cute and colorful style looks gorgeously sharp, and an unusual combination of tilt and touch controls send you off on a rollicking nautical adventure. The simple pick up and play style makes it easy to slip into the role of a rotten grubby pirate, all too eager for treasure and mayhem.
