Bathtime favourite Turbo Duck bubbles to iPhone
Like that PlayStation 3 demo but not...
By definition, technology demos aren't supposed to be remembered but PlayStation 3's Lots of Ducks certainly stood out. In fact, it even got its own downloadable game in the shape of Super Rub 'a' Dub.
Now, we don't think Strawdog Studio's Turbo Duck has anything officially to do with those, but clearly with a yellow rubber duck in the starring role, there are some similarities.
The goal is to guide your duck around the tub by tilting your iPhone or iPod touch, collecting flags to gain extra time, and avoiding the toy boats, submarines, mines and other hazards that fill the pool. In keeping with the game name, you also have the option of a boost by turning into Turbo Duck for extra speed. 20 levels of bubbly fun are promised.

Turbo Duck is Strawdog's first iPhone game and is currently being primed for a proposed end of March release, priced at $1.99, £1.19, or €1.59.
