    Its blend of beautiful graphics and sound, compelling platforming, challenging puzzles and of course the intuitive one-finger controls, makes it one not to miss, and a perfect way to round off a great year in iOS gaming.

    A delicious experience every player should try. If you haven't tried the Wii version, its price on the iOS is a great opportunity to play one of those special games that only this digital downloads era has made possible.

    Although short (anywhere up to four hours depending on how much you sidetrack), LostWinds makes up for it by not trying to pad the game with time-wasters and handing you plot almost as fast as you can handle it. The iOS version also boasts a collectable side-mission that unlocks 3D models, which can subsequently be used as an overlay for pictures in your library; it's not much, but at least it acknowledges the platform's social features.

    Despite a control schema not always keeping up and a little tricky, especially in Enril management, LostWinds is one of the most interesting platform games available in the App Store. Frontier's IP is a poetic balance of design, narrative and gameplay, an ageless fairy tale with an enchanted mood.

    LostWinds is a wonderful treat, brimming with clever ideas and imaginative sights. It's just a massive shame that the controls took a big hit in the transition from Wii to iOS.

    While this version of LostWinds fails to live up to the lofty heights set by the 2008 WiiWare version, the game is all here and is just as visually pleasing on iOS.

    LostWinds on iOS is a good game, but you can hardly tell because of the unresponsive controls.
