While there are tons of these daily free game sites out there, it’s not often that the stars align resulting in three games of this caliber all being free at once. Standard freebie disclaimer is in place of course, with these games likely returning to their regular price very soon. Don’t waste any time before snagging these.
Soul, Normally $1.99 – An iPhone adaption of a critically acclaimed XBOX Live Arcade indie game, Soul puts players in control of a soul escaping the body of a dead man. You must then use tilt controls to guide the soul out of the maze-like building to heaven. Gameplay isn’t anything we haven’t seen before, as the game is basically just a tilt controlled marble game with a whole lot of atmosphere.
Soul has some great art and sound design, but the random screaming doesn’t take long to start to get annoying. Regardless, this is a really cool game, and at the current sale price of free, there’s not much to not like about it.
Spinzizzle, Normally 99¢ – Yeah there are a ton of matching games on the App Store, but Spinzizzle is definitely one of the better ones. You control a wheel filled with colored balls that you must rotate to make as many matches as possible. Once three or more balls line up, they get locked in to place and you can keep rotating the wheel to get even more matches.
I really liked Spinzizzle when I reviewed it, and I’ve recommended it to quite a few people who have asked me to suggest some matching games that offer a little more than your typical match three.
ReBounce: Evolved Breaking, Normally $1.99 – We first discussed ReBounce on episode #10 of our podcast, then later went on to review the game, and admit we liked it a lot more than we initially expected. In ReBounce, you bounce a golden puck around on the game board, eliminating chains of orbs with each bounce. The game definitely has a Peggle feel to it, and the multiple game modes provide lots of variety.
If you like games with bouncing mechanics, clearing huge sections of objects on screen (intentionally or unintentionally), and online leaderboards via OpenFeint, look no further than ReBounce.
