App Review: Gyroblox 4 (It’s Just Like iPhone 4 Keynote App)

Remember that Jenga-like game Steve Jobs was using to demonstrate the iPhone 4 gyroscope functions? Well, now there is an awfully  similar app available in the App Store.

As Jobs said, “It’s perfect for gaming.”

Gyroblox 4 is pretty simple. It displays an interactive stack of blocks using the iPhone 4′s gyroscope and accelerometer to create a six-axis 3D environment. As you hold the phone you can interact with the blocks in real-time at 960×640 resolution. Point the phone downward and you’re looking at the top of the stack. Point it upward and you are looking at the bottom.

Check out our first hands-on:

At $2.99 the app might seem somewhat pricey, but remember that you are using all of the iPhone 4′s top-notch hardware.
