The 29th game in Donut Games iPhone game series is one of absolute genious.  Donut Games has taken their popular Rat series games a step further from the previous, Rat on the Run and Rat on a Skateboard to the world of extreme snowboarding.

Rat on a Snowboard is a high paced, fun game with a ton of new obstacles and three different play modes for the game. The 99 cent game is already one of our favorites with the rats antics chasing down wheels after stomping a present carrying sled.

According to the Donut Games website, “Ratty is back in the FASTEST adventure ever… with uhmm, exploding meatballs!“.  And when they say, the “Fastest Adventure Ever”, they mean it.  There are points where the game is just too fast for one to handle but we managed to crank our a score of 184 in our test phase.  Not sure how that will stand up over time, but it is fun to play.

We found in our testing that playing the game on the iPhone was a bit too much for our fingers and the eyes to coordinate due to the size.  However, this does not apply when you play it on the iPad.   The game is particularly visually appealing and much easier to play on the iPad with the stretched iPhone display.  For more information about Rat on a Snowboard or to purchase the program, check out the Donut Games website at:
