Minigore [Free / HD] is less of a game and more of a legend, at least on the TouchArcade forums. The developers somehow managed to drum up a level of pre-release hype that was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before, spawning dozens of threads, some going on for hundreds of pages, and the infamous Minigore dog image. Following that, quite literally every dual stick shooter that was released for quite some time was immediately compared to Minigore, with people from both sides of the Minigore love/hate fence duking it out in the comments of every story that was even vaguely relevant. I still don’t understand it, and I’m not sure I ever will.
Since the initial release, Minigore has been updated several times. These updates enhanced the graphics, added Game Center, threw in some new playable characters, and implemented so many character tie-ins with other iPhone games it bordered on ridiculous. If you were around for the Minigore release phenomenon but never made the plunge and actually downloaded the game, here’s your chance to see what all the fuss was about. If this is the first you’ve heard of Minigore you should download it anyway because it’s still what I consider one of the better dual stick survival shooters out there.
Jenga Has to be my favorite childhood game, love the idea of having it in my pocket, will there be online multiplay with matchmaking? Could also have special rpg power ups and combo moves. if so this is an insta buy for me.
good idea man, RPG stuff would be class, maybe like it abit like puzzle quest but with jenga instead of match 3.
With a game like jenga I would say that online MP is a must. would be great to see the physics engine in action, this is what will make or break the game. RPG powerups would be cool, would add an extra element of fun, but might alienate hardcore jenga fans who would probably like to see it played in the more traditional stratigic way.
We'll be putting together some footage soon :)
And as so many people are asking for RPG, we may save this for a followup.
"What is neat about the iOS version of Jenga is that two people can play a game together in the back of a moving vehicle during a trip, which would be nearly impossible with the real game."
This is what has sold the game to me. For years , maybe decades Ive longed for the day that I could play jenga in the back of a moving vehicle, I never though it would come in my lifetime, but here we are. Progress defined.
WOW. Just wow. Jenga needs online multiplayer for sure, a computer's not as likely to make realistic mistakes. Hopefully Gamecenter integration means online match-making as well.
Backbreaker 2 looks absolutely fantastic. Loved the first one and play it only occasionally now, but with all the new modes coming in the second one+ retina display + game center integration=instabuy.
Too many great releases coming at once AHH
Oh and btw. I agree. with all the RPG stuff, would be . TOO COOL
u do know that the screenshot is from the Backbreaker PS3 and X360 version right? (which is actually awesome football game and it is a full football game no just like tackle alley I recommend you buying and no tackle is the same everrrr)
Didn't read......
I'm looking forward to Backbreaker 2: Vengeance.. just like Samurai 2: Vengeance, the second one is always a beast!!
Im jenga crazy.
