Popular Flash Game Gibbets 2 Coming To iOS

iPhone App - Designed for iPhone, compatible with iPad

Having never played either the iOS game Gibbets or the flash game Gibbets 2, I thought I'd best see what all the fuss is about before I announce that Gibbets 2 is set to hit the app store during Q2 next year.

I quickly learnt why the franchise has been played over 250 million times. It sucks up time in a manner that's a sign of something truly special.

It's a simple enough game. Each level comprises of a few people hanging from nooses and it's the player's job to cut them down by shooting arrows in their direction. Underneath that surface is a compelling game thanks to the keen physics engine within that means it's vital to line up the shot and speed just right. Players are also provided with a limited number of arrows per level and are punished accordingly for taking too long or hitting the poor victims.

It's great fun on the PC and I suspect it'll be an ideal game for iOS with easy touch based controls and 30 levels promised.

Gibbets 2 is set for release sometime in Q2 2012. We'll be sure to keep up to date on any developments.
