GodFinger, as the name implies is a simple game where you play god, using only your finger. It is somewhat similar to Pocket God on the iPhone, but it has more distinct objectives. Most games of this type are more toys then they are games, but GodFinger aims to change that by adding more clear goals. They succeed partly, but it's still more toy then game, but at least it's a step in the right direction for this type genre. The best is way to describe the premise of the game is Farmville plus Pocket God, with some ngmocco flair."
