    Little Acorns is real treat, and I am glad I overcame my initial qualms. No matter if you are three years old, or forty you will be able to enjoy the game. The three year old will enjoy the graphics, and easy to get into controls. The more mature games will enjoy the challenge, and great level design.

    Little Acorns is a lot of fun and should appeal to users of all ages. The application plays on both the iPad as well as the iPhone or iPod touch thanks to its universal nature.

    It's a fun little platform that offers cute graphics, solid gameplay and clever design, with the only drawback of being a little too easy.

    A platformer that one can play in short bursts that has some interesting ideas, but ultimately comes off as being a bit bland.

    There is nothing not to like about Little Acorns. Even the soundtrack has a funky groove. For newcomers to platforming this is a great entry point, and veterans of the genre will find the challenge, precision and gameplay on par with the best.

    Little Acorns may be a tough nut to crack in its later levels, but until then it's a pleasant platformer with plenty to collect.

    A safe bet. While not the kind of game that will eat away hours of your time before you realize what's going on or the sort that would be branded as revolutionary, Little Acorns is the sort of title you'll find yourself constantly going back to, the kind of game that fits too easily into a spare five minutes. In short, pick it up if you have an appetite for well-executed and adorable 2D platformers.
