Critical Mass Interactive's Cell Phone Game Review Service

The purpose of our cell phone game review service is to provide developers with a way to have their games evaluated objectively, tested for issues with play-balance, as well as played to pinpoint any other gameplay concerns, such as bugs, that occur during the gameplay experience. Our goal is to make the game you are developing the best as it can possibly be, as well as make it fun for both hardcore fans and the casual gamer, thus expanding your target market.

By having your game reviewed by us, we ensure that your game becomes better by offering specific suggestions for improvement on story, art, sound, and other components of the game. Our job is to make sure that the game becomes better, and provide a complete list and description of the reasoning behind our suggestions, so the developer has a full understanding of why they are receiving those actionable suggestions.

The CMI review service is very flexible, based upon your specific needs. The typical review service includes four separate reviews at periodic intervals during your project's development. This is done to ensure that you are allowed enough time to act on our suggestions and feedback. This process is repeated, on average, four times; however some games may have more or less items to re-evaluate than others, and may require a different number of reviews. Additionally, as the developer of your product, whether you act upon those suggestions is totally up to you.

This service allows your team direct feedback on your title from a fresh perspective, amplifying the effectiveness of your team at an affordable price.

Some of our Review Clients

“I have had the pleasure of working with Billy and his team on many projects. All I have to say is he is very good at his work and always delivers on time! Billy is your man... if you want to have the "extra glitter" on your games.”
– Vishal Gondal of Indiagames

Here's a clip from the IGN Wireless review of Predator: "The designer's attention to detail is also key to the game's success, as this is an established franchise with lots of "Predator"-specific things that fans will demand. From the plasma cannon to stealth to skull- collecting, Predator is the go-go human-hunting experience you've been looking for." For the full review, click here.

Here's a clip from the IGN Wireless review of Buffy: "Fans of the television series will get the most mileage out of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Honestly, I did not follow the show, so some of the minor details were lost on me, but checking fan sites -- and yeesh, there are a lot of them -- confirmed Indiagames' near religious adherence to the source material. While not as good as some of their previous actioners, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a respectable way for fans to keep the flame alive and proves that Indiagames should always be a contender for film and television companies looking to leverage their content in the mobile space."

“Critical Mass Interactive provided us with the CRITICAL information we needed to make The Dozens™ into the ground breaking multiplayer mobile game it is. I only wish I had this sort of pre-release review resource during the 25 years I designed and produced computer and video games. I’m sure it would have improved the products I worked on at Activision, Lightspan, and Avalon Hill.”
– William Volk, CEO of Bonus Mobile Entertainment

“Working with CMI is a pleasure. As we venture into the new territory of location-based games, it’s great that we can rely on Billy’s expertise and insight.”
– James Robarts, Director of Dreams, Glofun™ Games

"CMI exceeded our high expectations. Review of our Cannon’s Quest was complete, very timely, and above all we found their suggestions helpful in making the application more alive and fun. We look forward to CMI being an ongoing part of our quest to bring more fun and bigger challenges to the world of cell phones."
– Lanny Ross, President WIMOS, Inc.

"Critical Mass Interactive's wireless reviews have been very helpful to us and they have definitely put in a lot of extra effort and advice to make sure the game succeeds. As this is our first game, they have been coaching us on making sure we understand the gaming business to ensure we end up with a finished, shippable *product*, not just a finished binary. The game plays so much better, and we've gotten lots of positive feedback from whomever we show it to."
- Aaron Isaksen, AppAbove
