PopCap Games<\/a> has finally released Peggle<\/a> into the App Store and it is well worth the wait. The most faithful and effective conversion from a desktop game to the iPhone yet, Peggle benefits greatly from its initial interface which was entirely mouse driven. Unlike Enigmo<\/a> for the iPhone, by Pangea<\/a>, in which the interface focuses on a zoomed in version of the game, Peggle allows you to tap once to point the marble shooter in the direction you wish to fire and a “scroll wheel” on the side of the game board that lets you fine-tune your shots. And, for those really tough shots, a double-tap on the screen will zoom in to let you see things up-close and personal.<\/p>\n

The premise of Peggle is simple: fire marbles from the top of the screen at pegs on the lower part of the screen. Pegs come in a variety of colors, with orange being the primary targets as once they are all eliminated, you can move on to the next level. You have only 10 balls to fire, however you can earn more by doing a variety of tricks (such as earning 25,000 points in one shot or bouncing your ball into a moving bucket at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n

Peggle for iPhone is exactly the same as Peggle for the Mac\/PC, but at a more affordable price point of $4.99. If you are a fan of great puzzle-action games, PopCap Games in general, or Peggle for the computer, then I highly recommend this download. If it sells well, it will surely inspire a port of PopCap’s latest release: Plants vs. Zombies<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
