Rolando iPhone 3G Game – The Best So Far!
Posted December 22nd, 2008 | 3 Comments
I’ve heard a lot about Rolando, it’s by far the most hyped iPhone 3G / iPod Touch game so far but does it live up to that hype?
Quite simply, yes!
I would go as far as saying that Rolando the best game i’ve ever played on the iPhone and one of the best games i’ve ever played on any portable device and I mean any portable device, not just mobile phones.
Why Rolando Is Great
Rolando is essentially a puzzle game but the best thing about it is that it’s been designed from the ground up for the iPhone & iPod Touch. Which means that it takes advantage of the fantastic iPhone multi-touch and tilt capabilities. The game play is simply brilliant and every level is so different, it never gets boring!
The visuals are perfect too, they’re cute but very stylish and smooth at the same time. The soundtrack is simply stunning for a mobile phone game.
iPhone: A Bright Future In Gaming
I think it’s fantastic that the iPhone is comparable not with other mobile phone games but with the Nintendo DS & Sony PSP! This game really sets the benchmark of what the iPhone is capable of and i’m really excited for the future of the iPhone as a portable games console.

Agree! Rolando is a very good game for a portable device and the best for Ipod/Iphone. But, the best game for a portable is Loco Roco 1 and 2. Rolando lacks the fluidity of those games. Sure, maybe it´s not designed for just that but LR1&2 are better.
Despite all, I love Rolando. The best money I´ve spent on my Ipod Touch

Wow, finally someone managed to copy the LocoRoco (PSP) to another system… Looks pretty much the same with the windmill kinds of things, and the black enemies. Still, eventhough nice looking I think I’ll prefer my locoroco to this.

Thanks for your comments guys, I meant to mention LocoRoco in the post, I wish I had!
I know what you mean about the fluidity or LocoRoco however in my opinion the iPhone version beats it just because of the controls. The touchscreen and tilt controls are so much more intuitive and easy to use than the PSP controls and for that reason I prefer Rolando, not to mention how much cheaper it costs.
