I wanted to talk about Ikanoid because I love the classic Breakout games. It’s an excellent style of game suited for mobile devices and I’ve played Breakout on just about every gadget including my old Sony Ericsson K750. I haven’t purchased one for my new 3G iPhone yet as I wasn’t sure which of the lot was the best. Now I know and I’m off to pick up Ikanoid thanks to Touch Arcade’s Breakout reviews.
Touch Arcade has taken the liberty of reviewing all the current Breakout-style games and has come to the conclusion that Ikanoid is the best of the bunch with its “responsiveness, great sound effects and arcade feel”. Version 1.4 is out and includes the new features such as net high scores, ability to start at an arbitrary level and background music, volume controls.
Check out all the reviews and an included video.
