A Quick Look at ‘Torus’ for the iPhone
posted September 29th, 2008 5:54 PM EDT by blakespot in $1.99, Puzzle, Reviews, iPhone games, iPod touch gamesMark S. Morris recently released a Torus [App Store], a fun little accelerometer-controlled puzzle game that can be a bit frustrating. As the developer describes it,
Catch tori as they fall from the sky by tilting your device to slide the base hook around the play area. You take damage each time a torus hits your base or the floor, but you can replace health points by catching the glowing green tori that appear when you are in danger.
It’s a super-simple game, but is an amusing pick-up diverison set to a relaxing audio trackset.
See a simple gameplay video posted by the developer:
Torus is available for $1.99 through the iTunes App Store [Store Link].

Looks neat. Probably too hard for my shaky hand though.
Cheers for coming up with a fresh concept.

Amazing game, some rough edges. Need to control with the screen also.
But awesome game play

I can only imagine how hard this game will be on the bus commute home. Definitely looks like a fun little gem for $2 though!
