A fun little diversion, definitely, but maybe not worth being billed as a full 'game' in the PS Vita 10-game package. Well worth £2.50 though.
Hungry Giraffe is a tilt-controlled steering game. You have to get the giraffe to eat food that's hovering in the air, which will then give him energy to reach higher. If you don't eat enough food, the giraffe's neck will wilt and it's game over. If you hit the giraffe's head on an anvil, you have to act quickly to recover from a death spiral.
I'm a little sceptical that the difficulty's been fiddled with to encourage further spending. There are some golden feathers that allow you to rescue a wilting giraffe, but I used all these in my first game expecting them to be replenished in the second game. They weren't. I've not investigated to see if you can buy these for real money, but if you can then I suspect this'll be deleted off my memory card to free up space for something else.
