Storm In A Teacup For iPad | Adventure Games
426 days ago
You couldn’t get a cuter concept than Storm In A Teacup. A young boy takes a ride on a magic floating teacup as he hops between platforms tied by strings, passes houses made to look like pop-up books, and defeats disgruntled rainclouds with a candy-firing cannon. We even feel a bit sick just writing that.
But its charm is enough to give it a unique feel, with the bright visuals and pleasant tunes making it a treat to play. Unfortunately, the gameplay takes punishment alongside it, with very basic platforming pinning the rest of the game together. A handful of difficult — if not impossible — collectables mean that those willing to put the effort in with find a bit more of a challenge, though more likely its frustration will just cancel out any will to play.
Despite this, however, the pleasantness of it all may well appeal to children, especially since the basic gameplay doesn’t really require much in the way of skill.
It’s not perfect, and there are certainly better alternatives already available in the App Store. But for a saccharine sweet platform game Storm In A Teacup is as good as any.
