Windows Phone Thoughts: Ballistic v1.3

Figure 3: Besides the blocks and the dynamite, homing missiles add an increased level of difficulty in getting the ball in the jar.

Conclusion
EG Pocket’s Ballistic v1.3 is a slick platformer that offers many different challenges and levels of play. The game is packaged nicely, and it offers a lot of bang for the meager price of $4.95. If you’re into games that make you think about how to solve a problem, then you’ll probably like Ballistic. But, it is a bit of a memory hog and those who have limited application memory available may have problems running it. A free demo is available from Pocket Gear or from EG Pocket’s website. Give it a try.
