All-In-One Gamebox iPhone Review

There are a plethora of apps available on Apple's AppStore and a few of them are worth your dollar. Games are aplenty and this time I'm going to discuss a $.99 gem - the All-In-One Gamebox. This started out as a twelve game collection of quick fixes to while away your boredom. Now it's currently at 15 games, getting an additional game every update. I won't mention all, just the ones worth noting to let you know what you'll be getting when you purchase this.

The top games for me are Ancient War and Bowman Defense. Ancient War takes away the 'defense' in the tower defense formula. The AW philosophy is 'the best defense is a good offense'. Keep spawning different tribesmen with a steady stream of food to knock over the rival tribe's totem. Oh and did I mention that they're trying to do the same?

Another hot game in the batch, and my personal favorite, is Bowman Defense. You start out as a lone archer defending your castle from raiders of all sorts. You then earn money to upgrade your acquired weapons, from fire arrows to poison arrows and explosive arrows. You can also earn enough to recruit additional bowmen to add to your volley of arrows. After 30 levels (30 days in the game) it ends though, with a note from the developers to watch out for a 2nd episode. I can't wait.

Other games include a Road Fighter clone, Operation iWolf, and a few games from the Action Heroes collection. My verdict, the All-In-One Gamebox gives you a lot for $.99. And as of now, the update is giving us the 16th game in the collection.
