Pros and cons of Little Red Sled - 3D Racing app for iPhone and iPad

Little Red Sled - 3D Racing app good for

Little Red Sled is simply a lot of fun. The idea hurdling down a hill navigating trees, rocks, jumps, and gigantic bunnies brings back visions of my childhood (sans gigantic bunnies). Its fun, but also challenging, and it doesnt take long to get your heart racing!!!!!!
This game is just simply great fun. The playful graphics and skillful sound effects will bring snow white bright and the sense of crystal powder into your day no matter where you are. Each of the first runs with the sled teach the skills to navigate the run successfully. There are definitely some higher game levels waiting for those players who love a difficult slope and a challenge. (Personally, I havent reached the highest level yet...but Im still trying :-) Your entire family will enjoy the slide!
As I had the opportunity to be a beta tester for this game, I can guarantee: Its fun. Try some slopes while on the train, waiting for something or just to take a break. From technical point of view its perfect too: The graphics are fluid and well rendered, the controls are balanced and the level of difficulty starts from very easy to „how in the world can I beat that last level?”. This all for a fair price. Have a nice ride down the slope ... but watch out for those bunnies!
Looks like a cute kids game. Sledding in the snow, collecting presents. Sounds fun! But then, the evil bunnies appear! Little Red Sled is a bit of a departure for Imangi Studios. So far they have released 2 apps prior to this, Imangi and Word Squares, both great but very different word puzzle games. Little Red Sled is much more of an arcade game based around sledding and gathering presents. The gameplay for LRS is fun, simple, and so gosh darn cute. You glide your sled down the ski slope and gather presents while avoiding obstacles. There are all the usual things you’d expect to see on the ski slope. Trees, hills, moguls, jumps, presents, evil bunnies. What? Evil Bunnies? The controls are well done, and respond really well. You steer your sled by tilting left/right. You can touch the screen to slow down. This helps with the levels where you have to collect a certain number of presents. In addition you can perform tricks on your sled when you hit the jumps by shaking your device. The game itself is a goal based. For each level will have a certain goal to achieve, time based, score based, gather based, or a mixture. If you meet the goal for that level, you’ll unlock more levels to play. Little Red Sled includes a great, original score that fits very well with the game and lends greatly to it’s innocent feel. Makes me thing I’m going to see Lucy and Linus dance across the screen. The score is an original composition by Natalia from Imangi Studios. You can see her play it and download the MP3 from the Little Red Sled website. As with any 1.0, there are a few things that can cause problems. Mainly it has to do with doing things you shouldn’t. For one, don’t try to turn around and go up hill. Your sledder gets all flippy. Also, if you are going too slow and hit a bunny hole, you’ll get all dizzy and have to restart the level. All minor issues, easily avoided if you aren’t like me and do things the game wasn’t designed to do. This is a great, fun, cute, original game. There’s enough originality in the game to keep you coming back and playing. And it’s fun for all ages. Well worth the $2. Just watch out for those evil bunnies.
This game is great and can be really challenging and fun! The music is awesome too! Well worth $2
I can see what the developer meant by 4 months of making. Its a very cute game which can easily be picked up for a short burst of play then brought out like. Great game, and 1.99 for a game of this magnitude is a steal!

Some bad moments

Dont listen to the firts review it was obviously written by the makers of this boring game
This game is not even worth the space on your iPod for free let alone 1.99. I bought it because of the reviews but they are a total BS. I want by money back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I
Fun for a couple hours, but not much more. The concept is cute, but the first 3/4 of the game is pretty easy to beat. Last two runs border on impossible and then youre done. No challenges or bonuses, no real objective either. One of the few that I had absolutely no desire to replay... Ever. Minus the last runs, plays more like a lite version of an app. Id suggest it only as a safe choice for kids. No gore/violence, etc. Nice work on the soundtrack though. The original music score is bright and cheery and the little sound effects are adorable.
This game is a total rip-off! It only has a couple courses a few objectives and gets boring quickly. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!!
Would give 0 stars if possible!!!! It is so boring and the controls are really hard and boring! I payed 2$ for this app and I want my money back!!!
Just this game is to easy. I just got it and its already to boring I already beat it. Just do not get it please. Wayyy toooo boringgg!
