Spoiler Alert is a platformer you play backwards, and it's just landed on the App Store. Or maybe it's just jumped on the App Store. It's all about how you look at things really.

The timings are all slightly weird here, as you'd expect from a game you’re essentially playing in reverse. It's almost like re-educating your brain to understand a completely different bouncing rhythm.

The game looks gorgeous, and there are some clever sections that will have you scratching your head. Or heading your scratch. I just don't know what to believe any more.

You can grab Spoiler Alert from the App Store right now for 69p / 99c, and it's worth that just to see how different the game is.
