Thomas Was Alone appears on different rectangles

It's hip to be square.

It’s hip to be square.

The surprisingly heartfelt side-scrolling platformer Thomas Was Alone has made the jump to Android and iPhones after materialising a few weeks ago on iPad. On iOS this comes as a Universal update, so there’s no need to buy again if you purchased it earlier for the larger form factor.

Touchscreen devices are definitely not the best way to play this occasionally tetchy platformer, but I found the minor control issues well worth putting up with for the narrative, which (like a good reality TV show) has a power to make you feel genuine emotional attachment to a bunch of lifeless two-dimensional objects.

Read my review from May if you want to learn more, and you can find the newer, smaller Thomas on the App Store and the Android Market. Trailer below.
