Chillingo screams into the Halloween weekend with new games for your iPhone and iPad. Whether you want to attack aliens with cannon-mounted cows, gobble cupcakes, or rush off on a platforming adventure, there’s something for everybody.
Saving Moo pits you against an alien invasion. Your secret weapon? Well-armed cattle. Using seventeen crazy weapons that you attach to your cows (from egg cannons to marshmallow guns), keep the aliens from stealing your herd and making off into the night.
Who’s the king of Candy Town? The Candy Monster, of course. But you need to help him ascend to his throne by matching three or more of the same-colored treats by drawing lines through a sugary field of baked goodies. With day-glo graphics that pop off the screen, Candy Town is a fun puzzler for all ages.
SpinTrip is a topsy-turvy platformer starring magical twins that must recover Chibs, amazing little creatures that imbue the twins with special powers. These talents are necessary to stop the Gants and other nasties that await you in this colorful adventure game.
Have you met Rupert yet? He’s the star of Rope Rescue, last week’s hit puzzler. The media (and iOS gamers) have gushed over this feathered friend. Modojo gave it a perfect 5/5 and said:
“…this is without question one of the best games on the App Store, and we strongly suggest downloading it immediately. Bravo, Chillingo and developer Untame Games.”

148Apps loves Rope Rescue’s clever puzzles and accessibility for all gamers:
“While many physics based puzzle games have been done before, I can’t recall seeing something that uses ropes in this way. That level of ingenuity ensures that Rope Rescue HD is well worth playing. It’s an interesting title that’s enjoyable to play for gamers of all age and skill levels. What more could anyone want?”

Civiballs, a physics puzzler that sends you deep into the past, also picked up heady praise. Slide To Play awarded it 4 out of 4 and said:
“Civiballs is a wonderful puzzle game for casual gamers. You might fly through it more quickly than you would like, but there will always be that one or two levels you skipped that will haunt your gaming dreams. The game has remarkable charm and silly humor, and will keep you coming back for more.”
