Game Review: Kosmo Spin (iPhone/iPad)


Rating: ★★★★☆

Kosmo Spin is a simple and fun casual game, in which you manipulate the space itself, in order to save the creatures of a little planet. By rotating the space, you move your character so it can bounce off the soccer, tennis and basketballs (and other kinds too) that an “evil” alien is shooting at your planet. You also have to collect little “cupcakes” to “save” them. It can’t really get much cuter than that, seriously. Kosmo Spin is uber cute and there’s absolutely no violence inside the game. It’s pretty entertaining though, with the simple, cut-out textured graphics, nice music and very good character design that Simogo is now known for (it was their first game).

Visually this game really stands out from the crowd – the graphics and textures seem so different, that you’ve probably never seen anything like it in the App Store before. That’s a good thing, because frankly, that 8-bit retro thing is getting pretty old now. Nice to see something refreshing Simogo!

The levels are of course more and more challenging as you finish them, but don’t expect a high difficulty level in this one. It’s more of a casual game that you can play every now and then without worrying about “dying” in-game. For that price it’s a no-brainer – you get a nice looking, fun to play, simple casual game that has that “special something” in it.

You can download it for 0.69 in the App Store:
