Physics-engine based bike game: get from start to finish as quickly as possible without crashing and get your time gauged with the three star system. You’ve probably seen it all before, so what more does this game offer?


Immediately you notice how slick the display is; the screen zooms out gradually as you go faster, giving you a fighting chance of reacting to a ramp, edge or pile of rocks before the otherwise inevitable explosion of bike parts. Of course, the system isn’t infallible, but you can be sure that the vast majority of levels will feel fair and can be done without any trial and error. To help the cause, the developers place Slow Down signs with varying degrees of urgency which you’ll do best to follow as accurately as possible lest you suffer an untimely demise.

Surprisingly, there is a good deal of variety through all the levels, and you need not be wary of simple A to B stages across a bumpy plain again and again and again. Some will test your patience as you race against the clock, requiring some careful timing and use of brakes while others will examine your reactions as you anticipate the terrain at breakneck speed.

With 70 reasonably long levels, gradually rising in difficulty, the game should keep you busy for a fair amount of time. As you may expect, completing levels gives you access to a range of bikes, which not only vary in looks and speeds but also provide some options for emphasis in robustness, handling, braking and weight to match your own style. The game does require you to Like on Facebook to unlock certain bikes, but even without those ones, there are plenty to choose between.

In contrast to what you may expect from a game called Stickman Downhill, there’s a satisfying range of well-designed and attractive settings which offer not just a change in background image, but also subtle differences in the styles of track.

Fortunately, while there are full-screen ads, they are infrequent and fairly unobtrusive, only appearing while the game is loading and without the risk of you touching them accidentally and triggering a web page to open.
Considering the enjoyment factor, replay value and technical strength, Stickman Downhill is among the best in its genre and is worth a try even if you’ve been frustrated by other games in a similar vein.

Samsung Gear Fit looks like the real deal... finally

Last years Samsung Galaxy Gear was embarrassing. In fact, it was one of those rare moments where a piece of technology made me really angry. It showed astonishing hubris on Samsungs part to release a product in such an unfit state. It was the kind of product I expect to see in hall Z at CES next to the iPhone cases and designer 3D glasses.


Samsung wasnt about to admit this mistake at MWC 2014, but in the Gear Fit it looks to have learnt most of the lessons. The key is that, unlike the Galaxy Gear, the Gear Fit has a clear purpose: its first and foremost a fitness tracker.

Moreover, its a fitness tracker that will actively monitor your pulse, not just the number of steps you take or stairs you climb. This makes it fundamentally more useful and more dynamic, providing useful data that can give you real insight rather than guestimations. The only caveat is whether its a little bulky for really serious fitness fanatics (our resident marathon runner Michael Sawh has doubts), but well have to wait to try one to decide on that.

S5s new camera features sound promising

Generally I spend most product launches huffing, puffing, groaning and generally getting irritated by the spin employed to sell really mundane features and ideas. "I want a phone that lets me communicate in my own unique way...." and other similar cringe enducing gurgles make me want to stick pencils in my ears and plead insanity to a court marshall. Samsung makes me huff and puff more than most.

But the section on the Galaxy S5s new AF system made me take notice. A combination of contrast and phase detection AF is a new one for smartphones, and any camera buff will tell you that the best cameras employ both to ensure fast and reliable focusing in all lighting conditions. Im intrigued to see how this system compares to the iPhone 5S, which remains one of the fastest and easiest to use smartphone cameras around. If Samsungs claimed 0.3 seconds focus time rings true it could be onto a winner, especially if it performs better in low light than rivals.

Good move, Samsung.
