And the Lite versions keep coming. The most prominent iPhone game during the App Store’s launch Super Monkey Ball has arrived as a Lite/Free version. [App Store]. SEGA saw 300,000 downloads (over $3 million in revenue) in the first 20 days of its release
Guide a cute little monkey encased in a transparent ball to victory by tilting and rolling him through a variety of slopes and turns. You must navigate a large variety of obstacle courses to reach goal lines within set time limits. Collect as many bananas as you can along the way and you’ll be able to increase your remaining lives.
The game has been criticized by some for highly sensitive controls, though this has been tweaked in a more recent update.
The Lite version contains a tutorial and 3 stages. The full version contains 110 stages and costs $7.99.
