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

The stocky soldier with the extending arm from way back in the eight-bit generation is finally making a return. The original Bionic Commando was known as Hitler Revival in its original territory, which explains why the final boss in the game was Hitler, fought in a room filled with swastikas. This new one is going straight for the name Bionic Commando, it seems, a far less controversial name to start with.

Straight off, I can’t see why we can’t play this game with Wii controls. Working an extending arm could be really cool with some kind of direct action, much like was done with the grapple beam/lasso in Metroid Prime 3. Looking at the screenshots, though, it’s clear that’s not the platform this is headed for. Cool looking arm, though.
