Gyro Xtreme by Vivid Games is a simple arcade puzzle game that will have you hooked in no time.

All you have to do to play is rotate the colorful wheel with your finger so it goes around 360 degrees, and ensure the colored balls that are thrown at the wheel actually land in the matching color part on the wheel. If you think that sounds easy, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the challenge.

It’s a simple game but it’s fiercely addictive. You’ll definitely experience the “just one more time” phenomenon suffered by so many app players. You’ll want to improve your scores, collect power-ups, and last as long as you can.

Gyro Xtreme is integrated with Game Center so you can post your high scores and compete for leaderboard status. It has extra game modes and unlockable 8-bit bonus sound set and wheel color sets in case you’d like to change things up. There’s a Time Attack Mode for those who want even more pressure.
The designs are simple and easy to use. The user interface is straightforward and easily understandable, and the gameplay is totally challenging.

Gyro Xtreme was updated to Version 1.1 on November 27, 2012. The update added Game Center access from the main menu and added a tutorial. The app has a total of 96 ratings with an average of 4.5 out of five stars. Feedback comments are positive.
