GN: Since the puzzles in Astroslugs are, essentially, just increasingly-difficult variations on a theme, players would do well to check out the demo at www.astroslugs.com before taking the monetary plunge into this charming brain-burner. As for me, I found Astroslugs to be a pleasant, low-pressure (although sometimes quite tricky) way to fill those odds-and-ends bit of free time throughout my day.
If you know anything about Reddit, you know that they’re a pretty big authority on games. Well now, they’ve decided to throw their hat in the ring.
It’s not often you see an indie bundle accepting Bitcoins as a viable payment option, but this is the brainchild of Reddit, after all. Introducing the GameDev Bundle. So, what we have here is your usual, run-of-the-mill indie bundle. Not much different from all the others: Six different developers, six games, a bonus title if you pay over $6 and a percentage of the final takings squirrelled away in a magic box for the charity-fairies to cart away afterwards. While none of these titles are available on Steam, you do get DRM-free downloads and a handy Desura activation code for the whole set. If you’ve been keeping up with the Indie Royales to date, you should have quite a collection there already.
The Electronic Farmyard write:
'This game just misses out on top marks due to the one dimensional nature of the game. But those who enjoy the puzzle genre would generally agree that puzzle games are one dimensional in nature. Therefore, the game is great, well worth the price and certainly an entertaining and challenging addition to your iPhone.'
