Centipede: One of the best arcade games for the iPhone

As I played this game on the PC many years ago I was hoping this port of Centipede to the iPhone would be just as good.  It turned out to be better with three addicting game modes.

In centipede you must destroy the centipede before it reaches your entity (which you shoot from).  In Ultra mode there are many powerups which keeps the game interesting.  Well, not only the powerups but with three modes of play this game is always interesting and very addicting.  This only scores a few points as a quick pick up and play game as games are generally very long (a good 20 minutes). 

The graphics are just ok, most from the old game.  Sound effects are spectacular and enhance the arcade experience.  You may also choose to listen to your own iPod music.  Our applause to the developers on this game.

Further Improvements (note to the developer!):

  • Ability to set how many lives or game length
  • More of a modern user interface
  • Live links under the ‘More Games’ section

Gameplay: 8/10

Enjoyment: 9/10

Graphics: 8/10

Sound: 8/10

Technology: 6.5/10

Replay Value: 9/10

Overall Rating: 8/10

    “Let’s take it back to the old school!” This was one of my favorite games back in the day on the Commodore 64. Now it’s on the iPhone and I’m hooked. If you don’t have it yet, go and get it!
