Review:

Few first days playing this game I was so excited about it, I spent something like 1-1½ hours playing this game non-stop, but after that I realized: This is Jezzball with a few tweaks and better graphics.

I'm a HUGE fan of jezzball, I mean in high school I spent most of my math classes playing jezzball on my TI calculator. I can just tell you that this game will suck you in if you let it, but I have some problems with it. It isn't changing the game that much, it is really really awesome to see "enemies" with different special "moves" and different layouts for the maps. But when it comes to playing the game, I really want it to be 1. Mobile and 2. Cheap/free. I'm not the kinda guy who sits in front of his computer playing these kinda games, I really love old arcades on my mobile, so I can play them on the train or whatever.

The "campaign" mode is something I really appreciate, it just brings whole lot of fun to the game, also the different layouts and unit types makes you think so much more, when you throw in a few power-ups, forget about it, it's awesome. As a computer game it has a lot to improve, I would've liked some kinda story on the campaign mode, not just score cracking, and not even the paid version will give it so much, that it is worth 14$. My Jezzball on the calculator was free, and I can find so many free Jezzball apps for my mobile that those makes Cosmo bots almost trivial.

Conclusion:

I can find so many free Jezzball apps for my mobile that those makes "Cosmo Bots" almost trivial. It is fun to play this game now and then, but I don't see me keeping it on my comp longer than a few months.
