It’s Lode Runner. On an iPod. And it almost, almost works. It’s so close to working, but the controls just aren’t quite tight enough. They’re far better than I would have expected and moving around works fine, but digging is just slightly hit and miss. I can dig several holes in a row without a problem, but then my thumb seems to shift just out of the dig zone, which really isn’t good in the heat of the moment. I think the developers realised it wasn’t quite working, because there are two methods for digging, neither of which quite work.

It’s still incredibly addictive and comes with a huge number of stages, but unless the controls start working perfectly for me, I’m not sure how far I’ll be able to get.
