Duet Game Review - Not Impossible, Just Need More Efforts

By -
If we talk about duet, what's on your mind? Duet singers, twin sisters, etc? Today, I'll talk about a Duet game. Well, Duet Game which was developed by Kumobius can be one of the hardest game I ever play on iOS. For me, it's a game about harmony and effort.

Like its title, Duet game will forced you to play as two balls together. They were connected by a circle ring. For controlling them, you can tap the left or the right screen. The ring will be rotated following your instruction. So, what's your enemies here? It's easy actually, you only face some blocks.. Yes, static and rotating blocks. However, marks my said now... It isn't easy as you might think. At least for the first time.


You need to master the controls at first. It's not a fast game nor a slow game, the one who make it fast or slow was you. You're the one who decide your own path on this game. There're 9 stages on this game consist of 5-8 levels in average. The levels here called waves. Each waves can be finished quickly or slowly depends by your skill. How many times you hit the block? Honestly, I'm suck in this game. I need to replay each level at least 10 times to finish a wave, and sometimes even more than 50 times.. :o

You need to rotate the ring to make both of the balls stay away from the blocks. You need to restart the level, if one or both of the balls hit the blocks. The bad thing, the balls was made by paint and they will leave some marks on the block after hit it. So, your skill can be shown by how many marks left in each blocks. More marks mean more sucks :P. Well, that's which happened on me too.. lol. But, I haven't give up buddy.. yeah..


Duet game has an endless mode too, which can be unlocked after you finished all the denial stages. It has similar gameplay with the main mode, but you have limited lives here. Beside the simple gameplay, Duet game also has simple UI, it only has 4 main colors; Black as the background, white for the blocks and blue red for the balls. You can invert the colors too, it'll change the background into white. The soundtrack was calm at first but raise your courage.

Why so serious? This game has a simple gameplay but it's crazy executed. It's not an impossible game, sometimes you just need more efforts and a patient to finish a wave. You can't play the game with ambitiously nor perfunctorily. You need to take a deep breath, relax and don't blink, focusing on your way and here you go. Don't be too rush or too slow. Take the right step at the right time. Too early will make you death, too late will leave a mark on your blocks too.


Duet game can be purchased on the AppStore costs $2.99. A reasonable price for a game with ultra challenging gameplay. Don't worry, you won't find any IAP inside. So, what are you waiting for? Create your own path now and start an unforgettable journey!

Intake: Be Aggressive Short Review - Seriously Addictive as Drug

Intake is one of the game that declare to be aggressive, at first I might asking myself. Who should become the aggressive one? Us (as players) or the game itself? One more, the game also called itself as a shmup game but I don't think it's suitable, well... at least for the first time playing. Intake is a fast paced arcade 'tap tap' game. Yes, it's more like a tap tap game rather than a shmup game. It can be a shmup game too, but later after you unlocked the special mode. Be Aggressive Fortunately, being a tap tap game isn't a bad thing for Intake game. Actually, it's more enjoyable than a usual rhythm tap tap game. In this game, you must tap all the pills which has the same color with your color power. You can change your color power by tapping color bar in the bottom of the screen. As you can see, there's an indicator on the top of the screen which showing the remaining pills which you should tap in each level. Everytime you tap the right pills, yo

Edifier x Mosum X3 TWS Earphone Review

Unfortunately, it's not a review about the game, this will be my first review for TWS earbuds. I was looking for cheap TWS that cost less than 45 USD but it should have better sound or at least equals quality with my Skull Candy headset, sounds impossible, huh? We can't deny the fact, that nowadays the smartphone doesn't have a 3.5 mm port anymore. This is a fcking serious problem for me, I still have this port in my Honor 9, but how long, I mean how many more years until I replaced this phone with the new one? Guess 1-2 years or so. Actually deep in my mind, cable headset has better quality with the same range price, but this port issue might happen to me in the future. Moreover, my previous headset was enough for 5 years of usage before its mic eventually broke :(. So, I need to rethink this carefully. In the beginning, I wish to buy 1More headset dual driver, but after several considerations, I paid 32 USD for my Edifier x Mosum TWS from Lazada, quite cheap for a TWS ear

Before I start, let's take a look on my upcoming mobile game wishlist . Checked, and as you can see, there's Seashine on the list.

It'll be released on September 3, 2015 for the iOS version. So, what is Seashine? If you're too lazy, just skip this 'boring' text and watch my preview video below instead. However, if you want to read more intense paragraphs, just promise me, you won't missed any single word inside this post :p haha When I found out about this game last year, I'm pretty excited to play this game... since it has glowing effect inside... no just kidding. The game definitely looks pretty interesting with that jellyfish swimming around and try escaping from that creepy ugly fish. At first, I think it'll be a level based game since I
