Yet another game that OpenFeint promises to port to Android platform this month or so. The game is executed quite uniquely with its own monsters (nomsters, because they go nom nom nom on them birds) and a story. So you are playing on the side of monsters, who are having picnic, mind their own business, and oh my gosh birds fly from the sky and try to snatch the food they love. So what do you do? Get on that slingshot and help them eat birds.

Developer of this game is London based company MediaTonic, which is weird because some elements of the game are written in logogram and have translation next to it. The gameplay is quite simple, you sling nomsters to eat birds, and if a bird is eaten, nomster gets a boots. They ricochet off the walls and continue to eat every bird they can catch with their big mouth, until gravity takes over and they fall flat on the ground.

This game features nice shoot combo system that will make you want to master it, and get that score. The game is full of power-ups, obstacles, bombs, food and oh yea, birds. This is not the first game to present birds as vicious flying creatures, by the way. If you eat enough birds without loosing your delicious cake, it will start to grow. Once it reaches the top, you get in “rage” mode called Maximum Break, in it your nomsters will become more powerful and be able to ‘ricochet’ off the floor.

What I Like:

  • Crazy graphics and game execution
  • Great physics that make you think a little and not mindlessly tap
  • Intuitive controls
  • OpenFeint

What I dislike:

  • No free version to try

  2. This game I had been playing for a long time, I have to admit.It is one of my favorite game. Maybe I’ll have more like, but, it is absolutely the most unforgettable. and the game Angry pingu is also ok.

  4. I have a Motorola Milestone (better known as Droid) which is an older model, so it kind of falls into the middle range phone category I guess. All the games that I’ve reviewed here were “tested” on my phone and passed. I had a little trouble with Heavy Gunner (some lagging during heavy gameplay) so I changed to lower quality settings, which helped.

  5. Such a bummer, though, I have a Motorola Milestone and it cannot even get in the game
