Rolando 2, the sequel to arguably the best game on the iPhone is finally here. The original game set the world of iPhone games on fire by providing a perfect example of what games made for the device really good achieve. It proved the iPhone is a strong platform itself and dazzled us with some amazing gameplay and great graphics. After a long wait, we have finally seen the release of Rolando 2: Quest for the Golden Orchid.

Right up front. This game is amazing. From the second you start it up it is obvious the designers knew what they were doing. Every second of this game is crafted to give players the smoothest and most appealing experience possible and it doesn't disappoint. All the original elements of the game are still there: tilting, rolling and jumping.

But now there are plenty of new features to keep the game moving and give users a brand new experience. Tactics like floating or sinking, springboards and user-controlled platforms must be used to transport your rolandos to their goal. All new characters with special abilities must now be utilized to retreive the Golden Orchid that can save the people from sickness.

The art style and music of this game are wonderful and without doubt some of the best available in a game. Everything is just well-thought out and has been crafted to make tilting your device a fun gameplay element, not a cheesy gimmick.

Overall, Rolando 2 is one of the best games that can be found for the iPhone and captures the heart of what iPhone-specific gaming can achieve. It will set you back a bit in terms of price. But it is definitely justified by its spectacular presentation and gameplay. Check it out, you won't regret it.
