Review: Pollen Count, iPhone, 69p

FOR those of you not suffering a serious bout of hay fever, the prospect of taking control of a load of busy bees on your iPhone might sound more intriguing than irritating for your eyes.

Tracing your fingers across the screen to guide bees to flowers to collect pollen and then on to the hive to deposit it may sound simple, and for the first couple of levels it is.

But once the bees pick up the pace, more arrive on screen at once and some become particularly picky about what colour petals they settle on, you'll realise this outdoor summer exercise is going to get you sweating.

It’s gloriously addictive, cute to look at, and the perfect way to pass an hour or two sat in the shade outside.
