SUMMARY: A fun low-gravity pinball game

When I was first introduced to Cows in Space I was a little skeptical. It seemed like another junky app put in the app store filling space that could be used for amazing games. But as I started playing it, I realized just how much fun this game could be. The game is a series of physics puzzles. The developers describe it as Peggle without gravity and I couldn't agree more.

The object of the game is to shoot your bubbles into the cows or the stars to make them collide with each other. If a cow makes contact with a star, it disappears and once all cows are eliminated, the round is won. In later puzzles, the app introduces danger factors like skulls and various gravity or wind objects which will affect the bubbles. Players only have a limited amount of shots to eliminate all of the cows and that is where bumping comes into play. The shooter can be dragged across the bottom and propel any bubble that comes in contact with it forming a new projectile.

Overall, the game is challenging and will provide some awesome entertainment. There are a couple annoyances with the game like how the shooter will fire occasionally when you didn't want it to and the round will end even though bubbles are still moving. But for the price it is listed at, the game is a sure buy. Check it out.
