Guide Review - Review of Puzzle Game 'Isaac Newton’s Gravity' for the Apple iPhone, iPod, iPad
Isaac Newton’s Gravity is one of the more tough, addictive and interesting puzzle games out. Similar to Mouse Trap, the goal is to get the ball to hit the buzzer. Each level gives you a pack of items, from poles to spheres, which can help you complete the task. It starts off hard from the bat (I won’t spoil it here!), immediately requiring you to think outside of the box. Isaac Newton’s Gravity is a pick up and play kind of game, but its challenging puzzles are better in small doses – imagine grabbing it on the go, spending some time with one of the puzzles, and then picking it up later. There are no adjustable difficulties, but you can play either of the next two levels, so you can bypass a puzzle that’s stumping you. Most puzzle titles play softball through the first half of the game, but Isaac Newton’s Gravity will give you a tough and rewarding challenge throughout.
