Fix-It Felix Jr

Fix-It Felix Jr App for iPhone
     If you're like me, you can't wait to watch the new Wreck-It Ralph movie coming out this year from Disney.  It's about a video game "bad guy" who decides, it's not so fun always being considered the bad guy.  He's just doing his job!  So he decides to quit, and choose his own path!  It's an animated feature full of old school video game characters that bring you back to your childhood.
     This application is a movie companion for the film.  This is the video game that Wreck-It Ralph decided to abandon in the film.  You play Felix, the fix-it man.  As Ralph goes about wrecking the building, floor by floor, Felix is the one repairing it and picking up pies (Left by the grateful building tenants) for limited time immunity to Ralph's brick attacks and passing birds.  The game is in traditional 8-bit style and has a very Donkey Kong feel to it.
     You go up the levels, repairing windows and dodging bricks and birds.  The higher you go, the higher your score.  Try to get the highest score possible!  You can save your top scores in the app and try to challenge your friends.  You even get to type in your initials like all traditional arcade games.
     As far as game play goes I do find that having the arrow buttons so close together on my tiny iPhone screen can make moving quickly and efficiently a bit challenging.  If your finger is just a tad off you can end up going the wrong direction.  I wonder if this game might be a lot easier to play on an iPad.
 
     This application (Last i checked) is only available on the Apple market, and is not being offered to Android users.  however, if you go to the official site, via your browser, you can play the game from there as well.  Though you wont be able to save your score.  Even if you download the application for the game, I would recommend checking out the official website.  You can view the trailer, check out the wallpapers and otherwise explore the film.  It's also a really cute site and well put together.  Just what you'd expect from Disney.
