Pocket God $0.99 [App Store]

Author: Shashwat, iPhoneIndia Forum

So before i had purchased pocketgod,i was wondering what the hype around it was all about..!And i believe that there would be lot of others wondering the same!

That made me decide on writing a little about it!
I will also underline the appeal of this game and its reasons for success!

You are a god of an island and as a result u have been conferred the prerogative of treating the islander anyhow u wanna!
Dsnt sound that great does it?

But fortunately the game is!!

You have an island and u can create islanders by the tap of a virtual button..The islanders are cute…And every time they are idle for about 4-5 seconds they wave at u and say a “hi”!!Very cute!

Also there are a dozen options of what u can do with the island and the islanders!!
I tried to cover some of them below-
There is a coconut tree right on ur small island and a coconut growing on it..Good!When u tap on the coconut it falls from the tree!But hey-ITS NOT INTO 2pieces!!
For the islands to devour the piece of coconut it should be in 2 pieces…And you can achieve that by dropping the coconut on an islander’s head!! And as soon as u drop it on the islander’s head they give out an innocent expression of excruciating pain-and massage their head….This action is quickly converted to their munching the coconut….!

You are provided with a fishing rod and one of the islanders is busy fishing…Time and again he catches a fish and pulls it up on the island only to see that fish eaten by some other islander!!

By tapping on the sun and pulling it downwards,night begins to set in and it leads tothe advent of the moon!!All the islanders fall asleep and u have the sounds of a night bird shreiking in a distance!!

Double tap the moon and a vampire begins to fly towards the island..The moment he bites a villager,the villager gets possessed,gets 2 dracula like teeth and he starts to jettison all the other islanders from the island into the water!!

now there is a shark in the water around ur island and u get to see the fin of the shark above water…!Hold an islander above the water when the shark passes and the shark will jump to steal the islander and there he goes…

Shake your idevice and u have had an earthquake!!

Create hurricanes and let ur islanders levitate in it!!

Pick up the shark from the water and aim at any of the islanders and see what happens!!

Create thunder and aim a thunderbolt at any of the islanders!!Come on this is fun man!!For any age!

The huge appeal of pocket god has been in its price (0.99$) and also,more importantly,the devs behind this game has worked really really hard on this one!The have managed to come out with an update almost every week since the time pocketgod arrived!
And they have promised to do so for the next few months!!Thats a lot of hard work and commitment!!

The latest update has been about naming the islanders!Now u can name ur islandes and check various stats related to them!!:)So u can name ur bad boss or ur fussy teacher or trespassing neighbour u hate or any of ur relatives u cant stand(good enough for me!! )…

And thats the fun of the game!Unbelievable suport for a game worth 99cents!

The bottomline:

This a casual game which is gonna make u laugh whenevr u need one-whether u at work or u with friends or sitting at home and lying down!!This is just an entertainer u can show off to anybody u want!!
AND AT THIS PRICE THIS ONE IS HARD TO PASS UP BY ANYBODY!

TRUST ME ON THIS ONE!

I will keep posting about the updates and stuff on pocket god here!!

Ps:Just showed pocketgod to my younger brother(a yr younger to me) and he was rolling on the floor laughing!!

Cheers
