Burn It All
SCORE: 91
Have you ever seen a game, and just knew
it was going to be great? That is what happened with Burn It All. I saw
videos and screenshots of this iPhone/iPod Touch game and had a really
good feeling about it. I just knew it was going to be a wonderful game.
And then I started to play it. I found myself excited because my
instincts and intuition were right on. Which made me feel really good.
In Burn It All you get to take on the role of a cute little flame. Well
technically there is more than one, but lets not quibble over little
details. You have so much time to burn through everything on your way to
the sun. After all what does a little flame dream about? Where would a
little flame go? Ropes are the main obstacles in Burn It All. There are
things like bats, and wooden shapes too.
The first thing that stuck out about Burn It All is the polish and shine
in the graphics. This game looks astounding. I have played a lot of apps
these past few years, and the graphics in Burn It All are upper echelon.
I do not see burning through ropes, or wood as violent personally. The
cartoon bats would qualify for cartoon violence. Thankfully there are
not a lot of them, and they have a Looney Tunes feel to their demise.
The sounds fit the theme of this game, and they are very energetic. I
enjoyed the music in Burn It All. This app lets you know when time is
about ready to expire. Which is one of many special effect sounds that
enhance the video game experience. The flame characters are cute, and
their goal of reaching the sun through one hundred levels is
fascinating.
Yes I did say one hundred levels. Burn It All sells for ninety-nine
cents. We were provided a download code, but I would have purchased Burn
It All on my own. The quality of this game is up there, and the concept
behind the game is fantastic. If all the levels were not enough there
are also achievements that can be earned in Burn It All. Do well or
poorly and you will find them. I found many of them. You can also post
your progress on Facebook.
Burn It All includes a lot more strategy than you may think. Water drops
will douse your flame, and you have to go back to the firepit. Some
ropes burn faster than others. There are gas explosions that will send a
blast of fire off, but it makes you go back to the fire pit. Different
flames have different powers. The clocks is always ticking. Some levels
are harder than others. Burn It All does progressively get more
difficult. I had a ton of fun playing Burn It All.
I really hope and pray that Bulkypix continues to release games like
this in the future. A sequel to Burn It All would be very welcome. The
one aspect of Burn It All that may bother some families is the burning
aspect. I did not see anything that encourages pyromania personally. The
flames in Burn It All destroy everything in their path. If anything it
shows the dangers of fire. Burn It All is a different kind of experience
and I feel blessed to have been able to experience it.
