Wow, soooo much fun
Just randomly came across this when searching the app store for "Amiga". How can something with this much fun and polish not get more press? I'm having a blast!
Awesomenss
I love this game, super fun and trust me its not easy to solve when you get higher level, which make it more exciting, totally worth the money :D.Also it's the first game from my country so I'm very happy for that, and I have to say that they did an awesome job with it. Again I love this game :D
Thank you for giving your players credit
Today seems like a good day to bring my review from one of the earlier versions back to the fore. Too many developers these days don't give gamer intelligence enough credit. It's as if they're afraid to offer a challenge because their budget went into the ending video. Babylonian Twins offers some particularly devious puzzles to overcome. It's a game from an era when game designers didn't care if you could beat their games. While I wouldn't go so far as to call Babylonian Twins "Nintendo Hard" as the phrase goes (a reference to impossible controller smashers from the 80s), it's a refreshing change of pace. I also appreciate the effort that went into drawing an authentic ancient Babylonian city - down to the blue bricks of the Ishtar Gate. Google the history of this app - the story of how it came to be and the difficulties in its coming to mass release is at least as interesting as the game's story, which is of course, very good. Other platformers have come and gone, but Babylonian Twins remains my perennial favorite.
