Contre Jour HD for iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch - App Review

Contre Jour for iPhone/iPad is a unique physics-based puzzle game with well designed levels. The app is universal, so a single purchase gets you versions for both the iPad and iPhone/iPod Touch.

Available on the App Store for $2.99

Graphics: Nice visuals, very artfully done. B+
Sound: Decent music for the game type. You'll hear the same music over and over again however. B-
Gameplay: Great physics-based gameplay. The iPhone version feels too small sometimes, not an issue with the iPad's larger display however. A-
Replay Value: Just like Angry Birds, you'll want to complete each level with 3 "lights", so you'll have to play a lot of levels over and over again. B
Overall (not an average): B+

CAN YOU TELL ME.. I HAVE AN IPHONE, SHALL I GET "CONTRE JOUR" OR "CONTRE JOUR HD"? BECAUSE THE HD VERSION IS ALMOST 3 TIMES AS EXPENSIVE.

[NuRevu]

@rackslap That's a good question because "HD" is usually added to the title for the iPad version of the game, but it's a universal app so it's made for both versions. You should be good with the non-HD if you have an iPhone I would assume.

Awesome review, can you make a video talking about your iLuv flex gel case, life how it is and if it is worth it :)

[NuRevu]

@TheiPadTwo Thanks! In regards to the iLuv case, it's a good case and is holding up pretty well (though dirt does show up on it over time because its white). I like it a lot and personally think it's worth it.

hey ! You changed intro ! or just for 1 episode idk... but last one was 18273664732715128393 % better ;) seriously get back ro vintage !

[NuRevu]

@Cuerdas229 Yeah I changed it because I wanted it much shorter. I like the old one better, but ads plus longish intro can be annoying.

Bumpy Road + World of Goo + LIMBO + Cut the Rope = Contre Jour

You may not like this game but buy this just for the Music.

What is the difference between HD and SD contrejour? I can't tell. Great review btw.

[rackslap]

@NuRevu Hmm I wonder if there is much of a difference in graphics or something though? Because buying the HD version is still an option for the iPhone. Confusing.
