For such a cheap price I bought this app to pass the time and found that it was surprisingly fun considering the simplicity of the app. Doodler jumps upon various platforms and items such as trampolines and jet packs to climb high into the heavens. The aim of the game is to get as far as possible without falling or bouncing into an enemy.
The game is simple yet elegant with a sleek design that includes clever little perks such as placing scores along the game for comparisons between yourself and online scoreboards. To control the Doodler, tilt the phone left or right and tap the screen to shoot enemies. There is also the option to submit your scores on Facebook or Twitter.
The game has had many updates since its release in March this year, which have added in more features every time to give more variety to the gameplay. Along with this there is a nifty little feature that allows you to unlock various different characters from other iPhone games such as Pocket God and The Creeps.

Pros
- Perfect for casual gamers
- Online score boards make the game more competitive
Cons
- Addictive gameplay
Verdict
A small game for a small price but none the less brings an abundance of joy.
