Gravity Lab! app review: a puzzle game that strays from the norm

27 Jul 2014 Reviews

Introduction

How would you like a puzzle game that looks, feels, and plays different than the norm? The Gravity Lab! app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone takes a very fun and engaging approach to puzzles thanks to gravity shifts, portals, bounce pads, and cannons to name a few that completely mess and help your gameplay. There are more than 200 levels to solve as well as additional challenges. The app uses realistic physics which makes it all the more fun and challenging.

Puzzles that Feel Like Fun Adventures

I really like the feel and premise of this puzzle-based game. You are playing as Steve the robot. Right now Steve's maker - the scientist - is away so that means Steve is ready to have a little fun as he launches through all the levels. You will be working to clear the level, unlock new challenges, and collect stars. As mentioned, the game uses realistic physics which makes the gameplay incredibly smooth and fluid. You can visit the virtual store to pick up extra lives, items to customize Steve's look, and the Robot Blast bonus game. The app supports the Game Center which means Achievements to be won and the Leaderboard to climb.

Gravity Lab! is free to play but there are in-app purchases of coins and the ability to unlock all the levels. These purchases range from $1.99 to $3.99. In its latest update a number of enhancements and changes were made including five new levels in the first three labs and 90 challenge levels among other changes. The app has four out of five stars from users.

Hours of Fun and Challenge

Thanks to the more than 200 levels to play in this game there is absolutely no shortage of fun and challenge for players. This one can definitely be classed as a casual game because you can pick it up and play a few levels any time but you can just as easily find yourself completely immersed for much longer periods of time.

I love that it is a slingshot-styled game where you send your character careening through the levels trying to control his actions and make your way through the puzzle. The game controls are responsive and smooth and the animations are fun, cute, and engaging. You'll love how all the levels look so different from one another and vary in difficulty level just to keep you on your toes.
