Pocket Gamer has released another iPod game review, this time examining Cubis 2. The puzzle game tasks players with creating chains of three or more cubes of the same color to score points. Pocket Gamer gave Cubis 2 a score of 7 out of 10.

From the review:

If we have a criticism of Cubis 2, it's that while the basic gameplay is fairly understandable – move left and right, and shoot – the complexity provided by all these different cubes and their effects is a bit too mind-bending. It's the sort of game you play, and enjoy, but for a long time don't know completely what you're doing, or why it's scoring you lots or little points.

The flipside of that is that it'll take a while to master, providing some lastability. There are four game modes to complete too. Arcade gets you to clear a certain number of cubes on each level before the time runs out, while Puzzle involves clearing a certain number of Star Cubes (yes, another different type of cube). Morph-Fun Arcade and Morph-Fun Puzzle are the same, except with Ghost Cubes that jump around the board to liven things up.
