Gamer Limit writes: "Emberwind is an adorable game, that much is certain. It seems to pay homage to the multitude of platformers many of us played all those years ago when consoles didn't know what HD was, when you knew what console was better because of how many bits it had, and when blast processing seemed like a neat idea. This feeling of nostalgia is sullied by the fact that you play a gnome."
Anthony Bate says: "Emberwind was breathed into creation by Swedish indie developer Timetrap, although not originally for the iOS. This title first saw light on the PC back in January 2010. The title received a modicum of success, lauded for its fantastic art style with a good old fashioned retro feel to the game mechanics."
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Emberwind is a 2D side scrolling adventure starring gnome watchman Kindle Elderwood. Armed with his cane of justice, the hero sets off on a dangerous quest to save the city of Grendale from the diabolical CandleFinger and his gremlin army.
Chillingo has announced the arrival of three new games for iOS formats this week: defeat a gremlin threat in the epic adventure game Emberwind, serve up some spicy Mexican cuisine in the time management game Taco Master, and outrun a tumbling snowball in the comical endless running game, Snowball Run. All three titles are available to download from Apple’s App Store now.
