Dutch developer Two Tribes announced today that they will be releasing Toki Tori for the iPhone and iPod Touch in the first quarter of 2009. Toki Tori was originally released for the Gameboy Color in 2001 and has since been updated for with a well-received Wii release:
“We are happy to announce that we are able to bring the full Toki Tori experience to iPhone gamers.", says Martijn Reuvers, Managing Director at Two Tribes. “A lot of games get dumbed down before being released on the iPhone, but we believe in full quality games and offer exactly this with Toki Tori."
The gameplay of Toki Tori is described as a blend of both platform and puzzle genres. The use of special tools or items on each level allow the player to successfully navigate each level. The developers claim to have adapted the game to take advantage of the iPhone’s unique control system.

What this game really needs is a lite version.
Vector Tank is a great game, but not sure about this super "lite" version which it really is.
Haha! I just bought the full version last night!
Actually, its a great game and really brings back good memories of classic arcade cabinets that you sit into and imagine you're in some futuristic battlefield. I was actually playing this while walking across the park, cursing my brains out when I got shot, oblivious to all the people looking at me! It's really immersive.
I think the one-shot kill is fair for as a lite version. You just need to know what it looks like, how it feels to drive around, and to fire off a round. I don't see how they could offer anything more without jeopardizing their full game sales. What do you want, unlimited kills? That's what the full version is for.
Awesome! Now I can shut up and other people can just try it out for themselves to see how cool it is.
...It's so cool ..
:)
Got a score of 212.800 - is that good?
....LOVE this game!!!
