This game puts a spin on the classic Windows version of Minesweeper by adding an extra player.

The story focuses on Thaddeus the Cabbit. “What is a ‘cabbit?’” you may ask. Well, it’s not quite a cat and not quite a rabbit, but it sure does have a sweet tooth for carrots.

The characters, the enemy characters, the gameplay, all are awesome additions that make this app perfect.

Freemium is certainly present in the App Store, but it is based on business model that isn’t as reliable or straightforward as paid apps. Compounding this is the demand of customers to get free content from the Web.

Puzzle fans will definitely want to give this game a shot. Fans of Triple Town might enjoy the change of scenery, and those unfamiliar with either game will be pleasantly surprised.

Being a Chillingo title, you would expect it to be top notch, and it certainly lives up to that reputation.

Ah, bacon. What’s not to love about it? Just about anyone can cook it, it can be found on the menu in just about every restaurant, and it instantly provides +1 charisma to any food.

You can rest assured that your bloodlust will be quenched.

This is a fun game that is worth a shot for those who are into medieval RPGs. For free, there is little to complain.
