It has a fun little plot about stealing precious gems which takes you to 8 different cities around the world. Each city features 8 levels in which you swap gems to create rows of three or more of the same type. You get a variety of bonuses for getting four in a row, or several combos in a row. You have a target goal that you must reach before the time limit is up. The goal is in the form of a cash value, that correlates with the number of rows you have completed.
The game is pretty straightforward, and is highly addictive. When you fail to complete a level in time, you may simply restart it without any penalty. Of course you'll generally get some sort of snide comment from your “boss” about how he shouldn't have trusted you. One cool feature is that you can rotate your iPhone, and the direction that the jewels drop will change.
Star Wars: The force unleashed is a upcoming game for the iPhone that will be released onto the App Store the 16th september. The game has beautifull graphics and a new way to control your character via the touchscreen. Unfortunately it won’t support the accelerometer except for changing the screen to portrait or landscape mode. It’s still in development but the video footage after the break already gives you a very nice view on what to expect.
All of the PopCap Games fans out there should instantly recognize the new game developed by LgChicken. Poddle is a clone of the popular game, Peggle. It's actually pretty fun and can get very addicting. The object of Poddle is to eliminate all of the pegs on the board using a limited amount of balls.

Keep in mind that Poddle 1.0 is consider a "beta" version, so there still some kinks that need to be worked out.
