App of the week: Sword & Sworcery

A gaming sensation from a hip little Canadian outfit that is as strange and eerie as it is wonderfully engrossing: old skool graphics and amazing soundtrack, looks like your old Atari, runs on an iPad.

Now, before we even begin with this review, I’d like to point out that I am in no way a serious gamer at all. I don’t own any consoles and the last game I finished was Half-Life…the first one (what a game). Reason being that I simply don’t have enough time to commit to something like that, and I can’t be arsed to invest thousands of rands into a worthy PC, only to realise that its basically a piece of shit compared to what I really need three months later.
