Bobby Carrot Forever:  A puzzling bunny styled challenge

Version Reviewed: 1.1
Developer: FDG Entertainment
Price as of Review: $4.99
Current iTunes Rating: 3/5

Bobby Carrot Forever is a birds eye view strategy puzzle game where you control a rabbit across six worlds.  Each level contains many, many, aspects and lots of features to a single map.  Although you really have to push yourself at first to get into this game, once you do it’s a rewarding aspect whether you cheat at it or not.  To really give this game an honest opinion, I’ve played it out until the end, and I must say, I enjoyed the trip.  A single map can get immensely complex so prepare to be frustrated.  For those interested in a strong storyline to a game, you have it here, as you uncover the six worlds to find the six golden carrots you’ll encounter characters and watch cutscenes telling the story of our rabbit Bobby.

Once you get into the game and its simple control scheme (props to the developer for adding two different control options) a large puzzle awaits you, filled with many tricks to learn.  You’ll go about collecting carrots and coins, the anticipation building to bonus rounds where you’ll fill your characters pockets with lawns full of coins.  The 60 levels can literally have you playing for days, your addiction might falter however at any time in the game when things just start getting repetitive.

The graphics are decent but in terms of media the sound is the real winner in this game.  The iTunes page of the app boasts “17 CD Quality Audio Tracks,” and “Tons of sound effects,” although they don’t give an adjective for how awesome they are, you’ll just need to play the game to see for yourself.  The control scheme is quite good and the app is completely stable.

Final Ratings:

Gameplay: 8.7/10 – So, so much to this game, the puzzle levels have so many features and aspects

Enjoyment: 7.8/10 – Once you get into it you’ll be well on your way for an enjoying ride.  Like a roller coaster though the ride can teeter downwards.

Graphics: 8.2/10 – Although simple and 2D they’re quite stunning and run amazingly well on your mobile device.

Sound: 9/10 – The sound of Bobby Carrot Forever really livens up this game, lots of sound effects and good background music that optionally doesn’t disturb your iPod tunes.

Technology: 7/10 – A simple tapping game which masters the hardware capability of the iPhone except for the unfortunate lack of accelerometer use (except the innovative pause screen)

Replay Value: 7.8/10 – Same rating as enjoyment for the same reason.

Overall Rating: 8.1/10
