Chillingo has announced a pair of new releases to go along with the accolades their apps collected in the last week. Chillingo had quite the busy week last week; recent release and iPhone Game of the Week recipient Feed Me Oil hit number one on the iPhone App Store. As well, their published title Cut The Rope, developed by ZeptoLab, won an Apple Design Award. On top of all this, Chillingo announced that their apps have reached 140 million total downloads. In order to help increase that number, they’ve released several new games and updates for their current titles. Rocket Bunnies is an action platformer where players must navigate an eponymous Rocket Bunny around planets, using their gravity to feed hungry bunnies throughout the game’s 60 levels.

Today’s lead in is the latest offering from Square Enix, which is unique in both content and price.  The game is called Imaginary Range.  It’s a combination of comic book and mini-games, and it’s absolutely free.  If you’re into aquatic life with attitudes you should check out either Destructopus or Laser Dolphin.  The former is more for those who just want to destroy everything, while you can’t go wrong with the latter’s protagonist – a mammal that totes some pretty awesome weaponry.  Finally, if you haven’t gotten your fill of puzzle games with cute characters yet, Chillingo is happy to bring you Spider Jack… a puzzle game with a cute leading character. – Spider Jack looks like Chillingo’s take on such games as Arachnadoodle (TMA Review) and Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor, and if it’s half as good as either of those that’s just fine with me.  You control Spider Read More

It's also impossible to get through this review without comparing them to each other every step of the way. It's probably easiest to look at the few differences between the two games first before moving onto the similarities. Where Cut the Rope tasks you with delivering a piece of candy to little Om Nom's mouth, Spider Jack wants you to deliver Jack the spider to his dinner. To do this you'll be spinning you spider web out to knobs, using physics to swing around and eventually cutting the web to capture your dinner. The main difference is that you Read More
