Iconfactory releases Frenzic Puzzle Game for iPhone

Advertisements

I’ve got a new addiction, and it’s called Frenzic ($4.99) The game immediately draws you with its easy-to-pick-up gameplay and keeps you there with an intense and ever-increasing tempo. Frenzic is a fresh standout amount the growing mass of puzzle games in the iTunes app store.

Frenzic was first available as a desktop game on the Mac, but the iPhone version, with its touch interface, is a superior version. The object of the game is to fill in circles with random wedges. Fill a circle entirely and gain points. Fill the circle with wedges of the same color and also gain a life. You’ll definitely need these extra lives later when the pace picks up.

The real challenge of the came comes with the clock. The more points you gain, the less time you have to place each wedge. There are three bonus tools that will help you: one that clears all the wedges from the board, one that slows down time, and one that gives you double points.

Games generally do not last very long, which works well for the iPhone’s mobile gaming. Most games will run from a few minutes for beginners up to 20 minutes or more for experts.

Conclusion

Frenzic combines simplistic gameplay with a frenzied, ever-increasing pace to create a way-too-addictive package. The short game times are perfect for the mobile gaming experience and will give you brief bursts of brain exercise. Overall, it’s a polished game and worth a download.
