    If you've ever wanted to collect lollipops while rolling a fat Panda towards a hole, Roll in the Hole will provide you with just that.

    Role in the Hole is a good puzzle game that features seductive graphics and simple yet original gameplay. That said, its distinct lack of personality, inconsistent level design and control issues prevent it from being more.

    Roll In The Hole may not usurp Chillingo's other top puzzlers, but it's a nice return to their roots that is well worth picking up.

    That said, this is one of those titles where some levels are pathetically easy, others ridiculously tough. The difficulty is a bit all over the place.

    It has some strong points when it comes to overall presentation and the quick play (you can finish a level in under 10 seconds), but I really missed the ability to tilt my phone to help control PoPo. It just felt like a feature that was missing, and while the game is good without it, it could have been great with it.

    Don't be fooled by the sickly sweet visuals – Roll in the Hole has a sadistic difficulty level which is amplified by awkward controls. It might exude a casual aura, but most players will end up as frustrated as a zoo keeper with a pair of endangered but romantically uninterested pandas.

    Fun but far too familiar.
