iOS (iPhone/iPad) Critic Reviews

You'll likely play it frequently and often without thinking. Skipping Stone is the kind of game you play when you have five minutes to spare and need something to occupy your hands. Given its outrageously affordable price, this makes it a definite must buy.

A throwaway bit of fluff that nonetheless entertains for every minute you play it.

It does have a ridiculously simple one-tap gameplay mechanic, the art style and music is cute and catchy, and there is that 'one more try' allure to go for high scores. However, it doesn't quite offer enough to compete with the best of the best casual games.

Despite its endless gameplay, Skipping Stone is aimed squarely at casual audiences; this isn't a bad thing at all, but it does come at the expense of burning some competitive players.

The very thing that makes this an attractive title for gamers of all ages and backgrounds – its simplicity – is the same thing that will likely cause gamers to stop playing: it's a little too easy and mindless.
