Pocket God review





Pocket God by Bolt Creative

Price: $0.99

Reviewed at v1.16

It is safe to say that Pocket God has become an iPhone/iPod Touch phenomenon. It has remained at the top of the paid App leaderboard, and has amassed thousands of fans worldwide.

This entertainment app gives its users ultimate powers--you are the Pocket God. What does that mean? Well, it means you have the ability to do pretty much whatever you'd like to your little people, or pygmies. Torture them with rain and thunderstorms. Flick them ashore. Unleash a mighty wind. Let them fish, or feed them coconuts. Provoke the t-rex. And the list goes on...

The app has progressed greatly throughout the past few months. Bolt Creative seems to be putting in a massive amount of work to make this app a success. And it their hard work has paid off thus far.

What makes this app so popular? I used to ask that myself, in the app's early stages. There was little to do at first, only a few activities for short entertainment. As more updates, or "episodes" released, however, it became clear that Bold Creative has much more in store than us buyers suspect. 

The graphics are excellent and quite amusing. The facial expressions, changes in weather, and aftermath of your actions are clearly apparent, making Pocket God an interactive experience for consumers. 

The pictures I posted doesn't do the app justice, nor does any review or video for that matter. To truly experience the Pocket God app, you have to play for yourself and discover ways to amuse (or torture) your pygmies. At $0.99, the game is accessible to all users; rhe immense sense of control this game gives to players is something few apps have yet to achieve in the same sense as Pocket God. With so much to do, and presumably, much more to come, purchase Pocket God now...you won't regret it!

Graphics: 5/5
