" ...when I started playing I wasn’t expecting to get all excited about curling. But woohaa, I really got into it! There’s a lot of tactics and precision going on, I actually believe that real curling aficionados will have a blast with this, as it’s tricky, but not overly so. You can score bonus points and get cool extra stuff, like extra swerves. It looks great, the controls are pretty idiot proof, gameplay is smooth and they have managed to do the unthinkable: they actually made curling cool. "

ipadgames.org review:

"Curlington HD is a tricky game to learn, even with the instructions, but if you hang in there and keep trying, you won’t regret it. The exclusive iPad game is mainly about stone throwing, but it’s much more complex because of the features that have been added... "

Great for curlers and non curlers alike!

I didn't really know what to expect when I downloaded this game. What I got was a fun take on curling with exceptional graphics and smooth gameplay. I've been curling (for real, on ice) for 5 years now and this provides a real enough version of the physics and game to make the cut. The updates are also really well though out and have fixed my initial criticisms - you can now turn the special gadget stones off (I sometimes like playing with them, sometimes not), and having the full sheet level (the runway) is a huge plus (although really difficult!). In short, well designed, fun game. Give it a shot.
