Out Now: ‘Joe Danger Infinity’, ‘Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project’, ‘RoboCop’, ‘Lost Toys’, ‘Castle Doombad’ and More

TouchArcade Rating:

Well, it’s nice to finally be back in the groove of normal scheduled releases, now that the holiday lull is behind us. It’s jarring, having several consecutive weeks of blockbuster releases, and then just… nothing. Last week saw only three titles, but three very strong ones. This week there’s plenty more, including some offbeat stuff I’ve never even heard of as well as big name titles I’ve been looking forward to, like Joe Danger Infinity and Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project. App Store links, media and forum thread links are below as always, so make use of them and let us know what you end up picking up.


Alpha 9

alpha9 alpha91

iTunes Description

Whether you are a word game veteran or an absolute beginner, this game will tickle your brain in ways it never was before. ALPHA 9 has you spelling words to keep the blocks from piling up all the way to the top. Letters can only be moved vertically while words can only be scored horizontally.
There are two game modes to keep you going:
• The WALL is a matter of pacing yourself to make sure you never let the ever-growing wall of letters reach the top while you attempt to score the most points.
• The CLOCK is a workout against your personnal best score during a set amount of time. It is a good way to hone your skills and your vocabulary on your own terms.
ALPHA 9 will give you a vocabulary workout while keeping you on the edge of your seat!

Across three chapters and 45 levels you’ll outwit intruders that attempt to invade your castle from all sides—ladders allowing them entrance on higher floors, underground drills to start on dungeon floors closer to your fair maiden.
