'Sway' is the latest release for your iPhone or iPod Touch brought to you by Illusion Labs, the makers of the super-addictive 'Touch Grind.'
In 'Sway,' the goal is to move your character from object to object collecting stars before the timer runs out, using your fingertips to control their hands. Choose from characters named The Friendly Ninja, Lizzie, Benny the Bear and Recyclable Man--they had me at Friendly Ninja.
The gameplay itself is reminiscent of the latest PS3 superstar 'Little Big Planet' and is also a throwback to the classic arcade game 'Crazy Climber.'
Expect this game to hit the iTunes app store very soon!
