Retro games are popular on iOS because they remind people of their childhood. The pixelated graphics and 8-bit soundtracks are a throwback to a different generation. Thankfully the App Store always has a plethora of arcade games for those who just can’t get enough. Colourfill takes the color-matching element and throws it into an action arcade mix to give gamers plenty of addicting gameplay.
The score is shown at the end of the level and is determined by the number of moves, time remaining, enemies killed, and lives remaining. Players can earn up to four stars on a level, and each one can be replayed again if this isn’t achieved the first time. As players advance the levels become more difficult, with different enemies and power-ups introduced along the way. Those who work their way to the end will slowly unlock achievements and climb the Game Center leaderboards.
Even though there are a few setbacks, Colourfill is still a blast to play. Hopefully a future update addresses the issues mentioned, but for now the retro game provides plenty of challenging replay value at a fair price of less than one dollar.
