Harbor Master

Harbor Master is a fun and simple game. Its also a stressful frantic one too... if you play the way I do! This game has been around for quite some time but i thought it should be brought back to the spotlight. It plays like many of the line drawing games such as Flight Control, as a matter of fact, Harbor Master was one of the few first (along side with Flight Control) to launch the genre of line drawing games.

The name of the game is guiding your cute little ships to port to unload their supplies, then safely navigating them back to sea. The first dozen or so seem simple and easy... almost boring... but then things start to go haywire. You start receiving bigger (and slower) ships. You end up trying to place ships in holding patterns.. anything to buy you a few extra seconds. In the end you fail!! But failing has never been funner!


The controls in this game are simple. The graphics are wonderful. The sound and atmosphere is superb. My only complain? The iPhone version vs. the iPad HD version. The iPhone version which costs $1.99, you get 7 awesome and amazing maps. The HD version is free. However you only get one map, and the rest will cost you $0.99 per map. No bueno :(
