Our review

Fingle is definitely not the kind of game you want to play with your grandma. To say it has an erotic undertone is an understatement. You best play this with someone you really want to get close to, and are not afraid to get a little awkward with.

The music and the art are reminiscent of a certain kind of adults-only film set. The poses and moves you end up performing can warm up a conversation, maybe warm up the night, or just cause a lot of laughter. You might have fun goofing around with your best friend, but this game seems to be designed for couples, or for game partners who want to get a little flirty with their finger moves.

It is a fun game. Easy to get into and intuitive to learn, yet challenging and truly interactive. Almost like a tablet version of Twister, directly on the iPad. Instead of playing next to each other and disappearing into another world, this one keeps you right there in the moment. It could easily serve as a party gag too.

The only downside I could see is that you are asked to turn off certain touch gestures before playing. We did not turn them off, even though it was recommended, and we rarely ran into any issues. So it is not a real downside at all.

Setup is zero effort: co-op is on by default, because the whole game is made for two sets of hands on one screen.

I would definitely recommend it.
