Tweet for Tat: Review iPhone games on Twitter, win stuff - the art of tat edition
|

Last week we kicked off our new Twitter-based feature, designed to give away prizes that money just won't buy and clear a bit of space around the Pocket Gamer office (what with the mop bucket and a PSP in there, we really don't have all that much room for all the awesome freebies we get).

Tweet for Tat invites our gallant readership to post a micro-review on the micro-blogging site of a game already found here within our pages.

Our inaugural prize isn't actually tat at all, being a Beneath a Steel Sky comic signed by Dave Gibbons, Charles Cecil and Tony Warriner. Ultra-mega shiny it is, too,

The comic goes to Twitterer nightowl89j, who managed to combine all that's good about iPhone strategy (Romance of the Three Kingdoms) with all that's good about Twitter (guided Stephen Fry stalking):

RT4T @nightowl89j#PGreview Romance of The Three Kingdoms The Stephen Fry of Strategy. Mind boggling depth, immense gameplay, near perfect 9/10

Congrats to nightowl89j - we'll DM you for details on where to send your splendid comic.

Also worth a mention, although they don't get anything other than our adoration, is:

RT4T @disputonsnous #PGreview perfectly sharpened for iphone BSS and the futuristic world will give you of what to enthrall you several hours. 9/10

For working the comic's inspiration into the tweet, and:

RT4T @eggzbacon #PGreview Wheeler's Treasure: Awesome game with good controls, art style, and great try-to-go-as-far-as-you-can 10/10

For proving that developers read Pocket Gamer as well as players.

Next week we'll be handing out a few different bits, including a limited edition King Kong game for PlayStation 2, a Fast & Furious car kit and some Digital Chocolate chocolate, so start getting your Tweets in if you fancy that awesome tat.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
