Pollys Popping Parrots ReloadedPolly’s Popping Parrots Reloaded is not your typical “match three or more” game.  Available for $1.99 in the app store, the game features, you guessed it, parrots that you have to “pop” instead of the traditional gems.  What makes the game different though is that you are playing against a chosen computer opponent or against a friend over bluetooth.  If you are not faster than they are, you get your lights turned out and/or your birds “scared” and they fly around and slow you down. If you are able to pop eight or more parrots at a time, you get to do the same thing to them.

While the game has these additional features for a unique twist, I would have been much happier with this game at a $0.99 price point unless you going to take advantage of the multi-player aspect of the game.  There is just too much competition in the “match the colors”  solo-player games to justify the higher cost.  I’d also love to see a more relaxed “endless mode” or something where you didn’t have to compete against something that thinks a lot faster than I do.
