  • Summary: The Squids are back: bigger and better! The epic adventure continues as our band of stretchy heroes explore the underwater Wild West, fight back against the evil Black Ooze, and search for Winnick, their fallen comrade. If you don't know SQUIDS yet, SQUIDS Wild West is a great place to start! SQUIDS Wild West has a unique mix of action strategy and RPG: build your team of heroes for challenging turn-based battles against corrupted crabs and shrimp! This sequel is even better than the original, with many surprises in store: devious new enemies, four new playable characters, and nearly twice as many levels. You can even ride seahorses into battle!… Expand

    The developers at The Game Bakers already proved they could make a great game with Squids last year, and now with Squids Wild West they have turned it into one of the deepest and most enjoyable franchises on iOS.

    It is unbelievable that a game this complex costs only $0.99. It is worth at least three times that much. If you like adventure games mixed with arcade games, then you won't want to miss this.

    This game could sell for $35 on the 3DS and it wouldn't be out of place next to the other pieces of software available for the system.

    Fantastic game. I've heard Squids described as "a crossover between Angry Birds and Final Fantasy Tactics", which is a totally apt description, and Squids is a takeoff on neither. It takes the tried and true pull-and-release gameplay and adds such a tactical element to it that the result is utterly brilliant. Squids Wild West is a natural extension of the Squids engine, featuring new graphics, new levels, new characters, and updated gameplay. If anything, this game is more tactical than the last, with excellent boss battles, more tactical one-on-one fights, and even new gameplay mechanics in some of the bonus levels. I despise games that you can play without thinking, and Squids is the opposite of that.… Expand

    To me it's more like a cross between pool and sumo wrestling with RPG elements. It's awesome, original, looks beautiful and has tons of character. Play it!… Expand
