Aurora Feint announces two new iPhone games
Stick with us here: first, there was the free Aurora Feint: The Beginning, which has recieved some pretty rave reviews as one of the first iPhone games. Then there was Aurora Feint II: The Arena, which added multiplayer and some much-awaited MMO features. And now the folks behind it all have announced two more Aurora Feint games: there's Aurora Feint II: The Beginning, which features the gameplay of the first game with new graphics and the extra MMO features included, and Aurora Feint II: The Tower Puzzles, which contains more of the gameplay seen in the "Tower" location in the full game. Got all that?
The Arena and The Beginning are not compatible -- The Arena offers multiplayer, while The Beginning is all singleplayer. And the second version (II) of The Beginning is still singleplayer, but offers the MMO features introduced in The Arena along with the singleplayer gameplay. And The Tower Puzzles is more puzzles based on the "Tower" mode, and according to the iTunes description, does not include the MMO features. Whew. Complicated, no?
The good news is that it's all cheap -- for now, anyway. The very first game is still free. The Beginning (version II) and The Tower Puzzles are both 99 cents right now as an introductory price, to go up to $2.99 and $1.99 respectively in January. And The Arena is $7.99 -- pricey, but it's the only place you can dive into multiplayer (and it's also not compatible with both versions of The Beginning). All are available in the App Store right now, and even if you don't want any of them, feel free to scan your eyeballs over the pretty pictures below.

Although I enjoyed playing the original free game, I admit that I never understood it. For me, it was just a series of simple organizational puzzles to smash rock tiles. Apart from that, I could never figure out anything about the other parts of the game. I wish it were better explained or easier to figure out without a manual.

December 25 2008 at 7:57 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyThe name of this website - TUAW - stands for 'the unofficial apple weblog'. The website is not 'the unofficial mac weblog' aka TUMW. Since the iPhone (and the apps thy can be put on it) are Apple, I personally like seeing iPhone-related articles on TUAW. Rather than complaining, one could simply ignore iPhone-related articles and get on with their life. Comments should be reserved for comments regarding things like factual errors, opinions agreeing with or disagreeing with the authors opinions, etc.
