Ralph, the Restless Rhythm Rat has rhythm in his blood. Do you too? Make the right Moves while keeping the beat, following the commands that Ralph gives you. Touch, tap or tilt him, just don’t make any mistakes! The beat gets faster and faster… A game requiring a sense of rhythm for 1-4 players from 6-99 years. Reviews: Simple but challenging. A creative use of accelerometer, which is it's only limitation, as it doesn't always recognize my gestures, but it's still very fun to play and a good way to keep your mind sharp. (ijudy)

Simogo has pulled it off with Beat Sneak Bandit. In my books it's a must buy, and such a shame it would be to miss out." - TouchArcade "It's impossible not to fall in love with this funky little number." - Videogamer.com "Beat Sneak Bandit is polished, challenging, wholly original and a heck of a lot of fun. It’s a great example of how presentation, control and design can come together to create a cohesive and extremely fun package. Don’t miss it!" - IGN "Quick to get into but devilish in the detail, Beat Sneak Bandit makes all the right noises, and in what's already a strong year for mobile gaming, this is the best iPhone game I've played." - Eurogamer "Every now and again though, a game comes along for iOS that knocks you for six, and re-ignites your passion for not just iOS gaming, but gaming in general. Well, Beat Sneak Bandit is one such game." - Touchgen "It's an unlikely mix for sure, but Beat Sneak Bandit's smart blend of puzzling and beat-matching proves to be an ingeniously crafted delight." - Pocketgamer "You'll be hard pressed to put this game down until you've 'clocked' it entirely - a must have for all iPhone gamers." - Appspy "A true work of art, in so many ways. It's smart. It's challenging. It's gorgeous. But most importantly, it's fun - dizzying, dreamy, and delightful fun." - Gamezebo
