I just have to say wow, I mean this game is awesome. In all of the windows phone 7 lineup I'd say this game is only second to ilomilo. The premise is pretty simple, you take your puck, and in as few shots as possible make it past any array of goblins, skeletons, trees, whatever they might throw at you while collecting coins along the way. Sounds simple and boring but once you get to the later levels in the game it really becomes challenging to get that gold coin. Before I tried this I thought I'd be holding out for Super Monkey Ball next week before I picked up another Xbox live title. I was proven wrong, if you're not a big app purchaser I'm sure it will go down in price eventually but if you don't mind throwing out a couple of bucks for a game then this is awesome.
Playability- 10/10, the controls are amazing the geometry behind it is flawless and the game itself has a fun overtone with the narrators.
Replay value- 6/10, I could definitely play through this and come back for a round two after mastering it. I'm not putting it down until I've finished it 100 percent though.
Xbox live integration- 4/10, I love that I can transfer my gold over but if you're past the early levels of Fable 3 the amounts of money you'll make through this game really aren't that considerable... maybe throw in some special gear if we get certain achievements or something but the money... just seems like a cheap afterthought.
Overall- 9/10, the game is awesome but they always leave you expecting more when they promise integration with the associated xbox 360 game. Regardless though this game is definitely worth the purchase and I'd recommend it to anyone.
I downloaded the demo and I have to say, it was quite fun and I don't care for Fable at all. The game itself is just very well done, looks great, and is just plain fun.
I'll take a look at it in a bit

I found another super fun and simple game. Perfect for smartphone platforms. It reminds me a tiny bit of Tomb Raider. It is very enjoyable. To me, in the early stages, it is excellently easy, which is what I prefer to pass time by. I hate hard and complex games on a smartphone. This is not hard nor complex.
By the way, in case you are wondering, to detonate the dynamite, tap the explosion icon at the top left of the screen.
One new game that I can't recommend for those who prefer relaxing or easy games is Tumbler. The concept is great but the control is horrible. It makes it virtually impossible to get past one of the early levels and the succeeding levels are locked. That means if you don't get past a level, the whole game is done.
For you people who love an impossible game, you'll love this one.
Pros : This game is an original title with creative graphics and mechanics. The finger tapping used to latch on to fleshy walls and objects to get through levels is very intuitive and addictive. Robust physics are a big and enjoyable part of this game’s charm. This an impressive looking game when compared to other titles on the platform in that it feartures sharp graphics and smooth animations. Generally a great pass time.
Cons : I don’t know if I can even complain about pricing anymore giving comparitive examples of most XBox Live games but at $4.99 this title still seems a bit steep when viewed against other platforms offerings. This game is a good pass time but lacks the a good deal substance past that (mobile game disease). Some might find it’s gameplay frustrating and be turned off by crawling through the human body (personally I think it’s cool but I’m not everyone).
Recommendation : This game isn’t going to change your life but is definately a good way to pass a few dead moments of it. If you like creepy crawling things and some intuitive orignal gameplay you’ll be happy with your $4.99 purchase of this title.

I agree with you. I struggled to reach level 20. The game is really too tough but awesome in graphics and even sound tracks are of high quality.

So what are the best games that make use of dynamic perspective? Amazon must have released some titles?
Good question. Didn't find so far. There is no real use of the dynamic perspective imo...
LL&P
There is Saber's Edge, To-Fu Fury, Lost Within (nice price tag, ouch), Clay Doodle, and Monkey Buddy (see and judge for yourself ^^).
But my favorite one is Battery Drain Simulator 2014, in which you set up a 3D lock screen scene and crank the brightness up to the max and stare at it until you need to connect the charger.
Clay Doodle and Monkey Buddy were stock games on my phone, they suck imo.
I don't know the 3 others but i'll give them a try
Edit: To-Fu Fury looks pretty funny, price 1,99€ is ok but Lost Within 6,99€??? Holy **** x_O
Another game that use the Fire Phone Dynamic Perspective is Til Morning's Light, priced at $6.99.
Hahaha... Clay doodle was just weird and monkey buddy was freaky... both of those were deleted as soon as I opened the app and found out what they were about... I don't want to be tapping a monkey until I get achievements!
looks like most of the games are just sorta dynamic perspective added on and not really good... Guess that's one of the reasons why the phone didn't do too well. Sorta reminds me of how the 1st gen kinect didn't really work so well either.

Don't forget the Fire Phone was the first phone which supported dynamic perspective and I think it was really cool at a time. Sadly it isn't really useful...
Fallout: Shelter uses dynamic perspective to look around each vault room. cheers

Actually I'm sure fallout just uses the gyro sensor not dynamic perspective. That's the problem: dynamic perspective essentially mimics the gyro but tilting the phone to effect the gyro is easier and more sensible than wobbling and tilting your head!
Most of the Amazon studio games like til morning light etc use dynamic perspectIve, as does rocket robo, Lili, fractal x.
Bridge Constructor is also "dynamic Perspective" enabled, Looks great.

Just checked out bridge constructor medieval. Dynamic perspective support is there but as usual I find tilting the phone works better than moving my head which renders the whole thing pointless. Might as well just use the gyro.
