Harbor Master iPad review

Harbor master is an excellent free game for the iPad. You can purchase more levels should you get bored or just want more of a variety from within the app.

You are a harbor master and have to direct ships into the port to unload their goods and send them off without crashing into any of the other boats. There are many similar games on the app store but none are quite this polished or addictive. Graphics are excellent and the soundtrack is heavenly.

There are different types of ships from small to large cargo ships that contain up to four pieces of cargo.. The more cargo a ship caries the slower it moves and longer it takes to unload. Some levels also have color coded ports where you can only unload the same color cargo.

Some levels also have express ports that unload cargo much faster which are excellent for those large cargo ships. The game does get more difficult the more ships you sucessfully unload but does so gradually. What usually gets you in the end is not the amount of ships on screen but the amount of large cargo ships that getnin the way of the smaller ones.

Conclusion - 5 stars
