I know what you’re thinking. Five bones is a lot to sacrifice for an iPhone game. I thought the same thing, until I considered that Creed’s Human Clay sells for 9.99 at the iTunes Store. Each of Nickelback’s records sells for $9.99 at the iTunes Store. Even if the game sucks, (and it doesn’t) the music is ten times better than what most people pay twice as much for at the iTunes Store.
I’d probably recommend Rolando if it had a lukewarm or even worse soundtrack, but because it’s bursting with some of the most stimulating and infectious tunes ever dubbed with a game, I enthusiastically endorse it. Some of it sounds like a Kill Bill interlude mixed with Gorillaz-style beats and some of it has a funky instrumental Beastie Boys flair, but it’s all good.
Rolando is a strategy game that requires you to use every one of the iPhone’s controls to guide a predetermined number of jolly, rolling faces called Rolandos to safety. On more important missions, you escort members of the Rolando royal family, who all suspiciously resemble the Pringles (or Natty Boh) logo, across their dangerous dominion.
Sure it’s a bit of a spicy meatball, but for half the price of The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, you get 36 charming levels that you can play over and over again.
Get Rolando.
