StonePacker – Gadnell & Associates
It took me a while to understand the concept behind StonePacker Pro. With an innovative system of gameplay, it was refreshing to try out this game. Think Tetris, but on a much harder scale.
In StonePacker Pro, players have to well, pack stones as per the game title suggests. Players start off each level with a certain amount of stones (They appear to be more of metallic blocks), where they have to arrange them through swiping in various directions so as to compress them and get rid of any gaps between them. However, at different intervals of the game, more stones will drop from the top of the screen thus making the game harder. This is just like the Tetris series, except that you have to control more than one game piece at a time.
A test of both your wits and reflexes, StonePacker Pro will not only have you thinking strategically on where to move the blocks but also think fast so as to clear the incoming rounds as quickly as you can. The game ends when you can no longer make any further moves, a brain teaser of sorts.
While StonePacker Pro lacks in the aesthetics department, it more than makes up for it with addictive gameplay. Everything is kept to a bare minimum, with no distracting animations graphics to distract players from their game.
StonePacker Pro deserves much credit for treading on unchartered waters. For $0.99, this is one game that is definitely recommended to be downloaded.
Pros:
• Innovative and extremely addictive gameplay system.
• Simplistic design.
• Easy to learn (but difficult to master)
Cons:
• Not much of eye candy.
Rating: 5/5
