The free games include:

  • Aqua Forest ($7.99 -> Free) – particle-based physics game

    The promotion ends October 12th, so get them while you can.

    Aqua Forest is the most popular of the three and offers a very impressive physics engine.

      Praise Jebus!

      /me runs to the App Store to grab a copy.

      I've been jonesing for more Toy Bot action since I beat the all-too-short first release. These guys should take a page from Little Big Planet, release a level editor for Mac and PC, and let the community design a bunch of cool levels for them.

      Would they charge $60 for it too?

      I loved the first game, but it was short. Does anyone know if the second game has a longer play time?

    4. Battle Born

      nice! I'll try it out tonight

      releasing episodes is a great way of charging more for your game.

      Does this mean we should expect a price drop for version 1?
      I never got round to buying that one...

      I like the idea of multiple cheaper chapters vs a $9.99 game.

      I only hope this one starts at a difficulty at or above the end of chapter one, and not an easy tutorial start.

      There's a short, condensed tutorial, then you dive right in. Some good, fresh gameplay. Haven't yet finished it, so don't know how long it is.

      Chalk me down as well as another who'd pay more for a longer game!

      Advice for IUGO: please turn down the sound for the bombs, I was listening at a reasonable volume level and then they suddenly nearly blew my ears off. Ouch.

      I really like the game but this breaks / cheats the app store model of charge once, free updates.
      I might just sit the rest of these out, lest I end up spending $21 on a $9.99 game.

    10. whooley

      No, this isn't an update. It's a sequel.

      I'd prefer it myself if these games were far larger/longer, even if it meant they were much more expensive. But hey, different strokes for different folks.

      ern2150: There are actually only a very few vendors mentioning lifetime free updates in the app description. The AppStore is only a few months old. I am pretty sure other vendors will charge for significant updates as well, especially those who rolled out an initial release for free or just one buck.

      TDB2 is not an upgrade - it is a completely new game using the same principle. I just finished the first world and it is worth every penny IMHO. It seems turning on the magnetic boots does work a bit differently (or less reliably) now - not sure I prefer it.

      I really like these games, and this second installment has some new surprises and I think a generally more challenging skill level, but I've managed to completely clear Toy Bot Diaries 2 in just two days of casual play.

      I'll keep playing it once in a while as I do with the first, but I think IUGO really needs to find a way to kick up the replay value in this franchise... Maybe a timed mode or some sort of particularly crazy extra challenges or hidden level?
