App Review: The Last Rocket

For those of you who don’t know, I am a gamer of the old-school variety. Every now and again I’ll hook up my Nintendo to remind me of how much simpler gaming used to be. I hadn’t found many games of that nature on the iTunes App Store, until I stumbled upon The Last Rocket by accident.

The Last Rocket has 64 levels full of spikes, fans, mines and other hazards that need to be avoided. The goal is to help AMI escape the space craft before it collides with a star. The Last Rocket features a chiptune soundtrack, 8-bit graphics and Game Center achievements and is a universal app that works on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

The Last Rocket is available for $2.99 in the iTunes App Store.
