Review: "Isla Dorada Episode 1 The Sands of Ephranis" - iPad
Reviewed by Paul for FamilyFriendlyGaming
SCORE: 65/100
Isla Dorada Episode 1 The Sands of Ephranis is the most streamlined hidden object game I have ever run across. I beat this iPad app in one hour to two hours. There are four chapters and then this game is done. Mysteries are left open, and the player is left to hope for a sequel to understand.

Girls and horses go together like carrots and rabbits. My Riding Stables 3D - Jumping for the Team is a wonderful downloadable horse game for the female side of the family. Boys can also enjoy this Nintendo 3DS game. My Riding Stables 3D - Jumping for the Team does target the females though.

SCORE: 86/100
I have never been big on the Donkey Kong Country games. In fact I have personally not touched them since they were on the SNES. Other members of Family Friendly Gaming Nation have played and reviewed them. When Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D arrived for the Nintendo 3DS I was super excited to play it though.

Review: "Bombcats" - iPhone/iPod Touch
Reviewed by Mark for FamilyFriendlyGaming
SCORE: 80/100
Bombcats fits into the Chillingo library perfectly. This cute little app starts with a cut scene to explain the story. Well sort of. I got the point that I was to free these cats thanks to some power that lets them blow up. So we find the imprisoned cats on a level, and we launch our Bomcat towards them. Once our Bombcat is close enough we explode them. There is a timer on each Bombcat, which means they will explode on their own when their timer reaches zero.

SCORE: 88/100
It has been some time since Family Friendly Gaming played a Mario and Donkey Kong Minis game. Many of us here missed the Lemmings kind of puzzle game play, the wind up characters, and the mind boggling puzzles. The franchise is back in Mario and Donkey Kong Minis on the Move on the Nintendo 3DS, and its a little different.

SCORE: 84/100
Color Commando is a cute little Nintendo DSi game (playable on the Nintendo 3DS too) where we navigate the main character to a treasure chest. Simple right? It would be if those blob characters were not in our way. One touch and we have to start the entire level over again.

SCORE: 90/100
It is so easy to get cynical in the video game industry. We have to deal with selfish people all the time. We have to deal with constant plugging, and promoting of average or less than average products. We have to deal with all these bad attitudes from a variety of sources. So it is nice to find a ray of shining light.

Review: "Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights" - Nintendo 3DS
Reviewed by Paul for FamilyFriendlyGaming
SCORE: 59/100
I had such high hopes for Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights on the Nintendo 3DS. I purchased this game with my own money because I thought it might be a really good one. Sadly that thought was misplaced. Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights is a puzzle game where the puzzles are always changing. Sort of like Professor Layton. But the quality is not there, and Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights does all kinds of odd things.

Leviathan Warships is a turn based naval combat game that has recently made it to the iPad. Made it from where you might be asking. From the Personal Computer. But Leviathan Warships is more than just a port. You can save your PC game on the cloud and pick it up on the iPad. Which is a really neat concept. Yes I know its not a new concept.

SCORE: 57/100
Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition is one of the worst games on the Nintendo 3DS. Some may question why even waste my time writing a review? Or why talk our editor in chief into running with it in the magazine? Why cover it at all? Because someone needs to stand up for what is right. Someone needs to stand up for truth. And I am that someone.

Trekkies have been wanting a good Star Trek game for some time. There is heated debate on past Star Trek games. The technology is now here to provide a movie quality experience. Except its a video game and not a movie. This is where Star Trek on the PC/PS3/Xbox 360 trips up. It wants to be both at the same time. Yet movies and games are different.

Kid Chameleon was an early platformer on the Sega Genesis. This home console game did some interesting things, and fell flat in other areas. The coolest thing Kid Chameleon did was have different suits. Each of these suits had different powers. Sounds close to some of the Mario games huh? The animations were pretty good for their time. Especially when our teenager flipped around and over things.

Mr Crab is a fun little running and jumping app on the iPhone/iPod Touch. Players take on the role of Mr Crab. They move to the left/right as long as he can. They jump over obstacles, collect little crabs, and get to the end of the levels. The circular nature of the levels is pretty cool.
