The developers of Bobby Carrot have decided to bring back the original versions of the game to Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch. The games I’m talking about are the classic Java titles that appeared on mobile phones back in 2004. The classic series (Bobby Carrot CLSX) will have four titles, each a little different and offering different levels to conquer. In this column, I’ll review each entry, rounding them up as they’re released (once a month).

When I first saw this application, I was very excited. I remembered Bobby Carrot from one of my first mobile phones as a java download. To see it back in its former glory on the iPhone, well…it had a lot to live up to. Fortunately, for me, at least, it does. If you’re not familiar with the concept, Bobby Carrot is a puzzle game. The aim is to collect the carrots scattered around the map on 72 levels through 6 different worlds. The concept is pretty simple, but as you can imagine, it gets incredibly difficult towards to later levels.
