Games » Symbol6 Review

Screenshot1
Symbol6 is a fun casual game for the iphone and ipod touch. The game has a very simple goal: match shapes and colors as quickly as possible and avoid the wrong matches. In order to score points, the player has to flick the symbols into the incoming shape's slot. Each successful match will earn the player points, with point multipliers being added for each consecutive match. If a match is missed, the "hexagon bar" will breakdown and if too many are missed, the game will end. This bar can be refilled when the next level is reached. Extra points can be achieved by flicking the corresponding symbol out to meet the incoming match. There are also destructive symbols that cannot be matched.

These symbols must be blocked by rotating the hexagon which is done by titling the device. If the destructive symbol is not blocked, it will cause the symbols to change in some way to confuse the player. As the player reaches higher levels, both regular and destructive symbols come more frequently. When I first started playing symbol6, I was sure it would become annoying and repetitive. But eventually the easy gameplay and familiar arcade look to the game proved it to be a game worth checking out. At the time of this review, the price for this app was set at $3.99 in the store. This makes checking it out a hard decision as we have seen some much more detailed games come through with the same price. But Symbol6 definitely holds its own as a well-designed game.For those fans of Bejeweled or Hex, this game provides a similiar but unique approach that will keep you coming back to achieve that high score. Definitely check it out today.
