Tiny Diggers – An iPad Construction Truck Game for Kids Age 2-5

Jeremy Reimer on Arstechnica has a very nice article on the evolution of video games covering 66 games in 11 categories. Some of those genres being: sports, driving, and adventure to name a few. One interesting issue Jeremy brought up about gameplay since the beginning was that there really hasn’t been much progress in that department:

“When I started the article, I expected to find that while graphics had advanced by leaps and bounds, game play had either stopped advancing or was developing extremely slowly. I was surprised to find that improvements in game play had occurred at every level of game development, right up to the present day. The addition of multiplayer modes, where players can compete against many other players at the same time, is one obvious improvement. But there have been many other subtle changes and additions to basic game play in all genres over the decades.”
