Chromanoids Goes FREE For The First Time

This is what I'd imagine tripping balls while playing a Missile Command arcade cabinet must be like. Only unlike said cabinet, Chromanoids (Universal iPhone/iPad) won't munch ten bucks worth of quarters in one night.



AppSpy: 4/5 "Given that Chromanoids is set in space and you're fighting invading hordes of enemies, it's no surprise to see a neon-highlighted aesthetic to the visuals, but this works to assist the color-based gameplay instead of simply mimicking recent trends. Multiple game modes mix up the challenge, giving players an opportunity to either raise the difficulty cap or simplify things to a more traditional Missile Command clone; in either case gamers of all walks are covered."

SlideToPlay: 3/4  "Chromanoids is a game that lives and dies based off of its color-coded gimmick, and thankfully the gimmick is great, as it makes the game feel significantly fresh and uniquely challenging. It’s like a fresh coat of paint on a familiar spaceship."

TouchArcade: 3.5/5  "The game has five modes to hold your interest. Story mode gives you 25 waves punctuated with cute dialog cuts. Armada mode is harder and faster. Depleted mode stacks the odds further against you, so your shots are smaller but your score gets higher. Ultradrive mode rewards accuracy. Red-Shift mode does away with the color matching mechanic so you can blast away freely. Chromanoids™ has enough variety to keep any arcade fan happy."
