Oceanhorn for iOS

Oceanhorn is an adventure game that sends you on a quest to explore the Islands of the Uncharted Seas in order to find your father. With only a few clues to help you begin your journey, you'll have to explore every corner and crevice of this world in order to uncover the truth about your father and the legendary sea monster Oceanhorn.

Pros

Graphics and sound: The graphics and soundtrack for this game are excellent. The vivid images and sharp detail of the islands and the characters you meet make it possible to enjoy this game thoroughly even on the small screen of the iPhone. And the optional music definitely adds to the gaming experience.

Engaging storyline: The game begins when your character wakes up one day to find his father gone. Only a cryptic note and a mysterious necklace offer clues as to where he's gone and why. As you move through the levels and build your skills, you are driven to uncover more clues about Oceanhorn and what he has to do with your father, and that makes the game quite compelling to play.

Cons

Control issues: Controlling your character can be a bit awkward at times, especially on the smaller screen of the iPhone or iPod Touch. This is less of an issue on the iPad, as the larger screen gives you the ability to operate the controls while also viewing almost the whole game screen.

Bottom Line

Oceanhorn is a fun and innovative game that users of all experience levels can jump into quickly. The app costs $8.99 and provides many hours of gameplay and adventure as you work to reveal all of the secrets this fantasy world has hidden beneath the surface.
