I just recently got Skizzle and now all my friends with an iPhone have Skizzle and I am sure degrees of separation extends it further. I mean, look at all the successful Facebook apps. If the app is smart, intuitive, and presents a need? Games have to be smart, well, for me anyway. For example, in order to share and accept shared Skizzle pictures to play one must have downloaded Skizzle? And if your friend is sending you a puzzle... You ARE going to want to solve it and play. Genius if you ask me. All in all, I think it's too early to tell... More GOOD apps are needed and the market will decide this. So, whether or not it's sustainable? Well, again, the market will decide. And by the way, Skizzle peeps, if you read this: I absolutely love it. And thanks Jake D. for mentioning it. -TJ Jake D. mentioned Skizzle.

I really like how finished it is. It feels perfect and is very very polished. On the other hand I really don't get it :). The triangle thing and chain reactions based on the tilting bring much more of a strategic part to it than on any other match-three games out there. That's why many poeple love Trism, and that's why I don't like it :). So kudos to the developer. Trism is one of the best puzzle games on the AppStore.

I find it awkward to play (due to the angled approach - to get reliable results you have to hold your iPhone at an angle. If you hold it at 90 degree angles the tiles might slide left or right depending on which way it thinks you are holding more toward) and just not that much fun to play. It seems mostly random with your results depending on what happens to fall in from offscreen. I.e. just like Bejeweled, which is another game I've never had an appreciation for. I am wildly in the minority on this, though. Everybody else seems to love it.
