Resonance for iOS looks cooler than what it actually is. But it sounds beautiful.
If I were to say what game Resonance is close… Maybe I’ll have to go with Shift. Your goal in Resonance is to go from start to finish in a huge amount of levels. You do so by jumping around and solving the kind of “musical” puzzles.
Your character can collect different-coloured notes. Red, blue, green, yellow. Each note makes disappear blocks of the same colour. Using this small intelligence piece, you can go from A to B, with a little thinking.
Each level in Resonance can be finished in a set amount of time, getting you 3, 2 or 1 star. Or 0 stars, but this won’t happen to you for a while.
Is Resonance for iOS a good game? Well, kind of. It is innovative. Its graphics look cute. Background music and sounds feel special. But I still think the game lacks “something”. Try for yourself and tell me. Also, the app is universal, working as well in an iPhone as in an iPad
In short: Resonance for iOS is a decent game. Since it is free with in-app purchase, I say: try for yourself!
