Pocket Gamer: We'd dearly love to begin this review by saying just how unique SteamBirds: Survival is, but seeing as its predecessor is already a firm favourite on iOS, Android, and the web, that would be somewhat disingenuous.
However, what we can say is that this update succeeds in making this already well-liked title even more immediate, enjoyable, and accessible.
Einstein Brain Trainer, Superman, SteamBirds Survival HD and Ray Marching, all reviewed in this week's Mobile Monday.
It’s been predicted by some that our mobile devices are killing the handheld gaming market. With games like Virtual City Playground and Steambirds: Survival in the iTunes app store, there are definitely good reasons to leave your handheld and home. While the vast majority of apps are nowhere near the caliber of the highest rated DS and PSP titles, gamers are beginning to see some of their most beloved titles (Katamari and Scribblenauts for example) ported over to their iOS devices. And with the ever improving processors in smartphones, the potential of apps is only increasing. Check out this week’s selection to see if you agree.

Well, the original makers of the game, SpryFox, teamed up with HalfBrick to release a sequel – Steambirds: Survival [Free/HD]. And it's definitely worth checking out (again!)
