iOS (iPhone/iPad) Critic Reviews

The overall feel and pacing of the game -- a bit more relaxed than the typical shooter out there -- combined with the ethereal audio stylings deliver an experience that might come across as a bit of an oddity to the typical gamer as compared to most of his other iOS releases, or certainly most other shooters out there.

Another crazed, retro blast from the mind of Jeff Minter, FiveADay is a little tricky to get to grips with, but once it clicks it's hilarious fun.

FiveADay didn't grab me the same way that earlier Llamasoft games have, and somehow the subject matter feels more corny than wacky. Still it is a Llamasoft game, and as such has a high level of appeal to me both as a gamer and as a person with interest in game design. And I can't help but laugh at the messages between levels, as those are hilarious and changes depending on your performance.

Those seeking a healthy eating plan are advised to look elsewhere: this is more likely to encourage consumption of hallucinogens than fruit and vegetables.
