GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written. a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): It is factually accurate and verifiable, as shown by a source spot-check. a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): It is broad in its coverage. a (major aspects): b (focused): It follows the neutral point of view policy. Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

Additionally, most lauded Async Corp.'s office-esque atmosphere; some compared the game to a job, or, more specifically, a postal delivery worker. I think the comma after "job" can go.
- Also, this being my only quibble with copy is remarkable.

Sourcing and spot checks

1 (PocketGamer): requires you to shift coloured tiles around the left and right grids to form 2x2 or 2x3 packets, If youve ever dreamt about becoming a postal delivery worker - and who hasnt? yet dont fancy the 4am starts, the unfriendly neighbourhood hounds, and the tailored shorts, Async Corp. can help you realise your fantasy from your bedroom. Y
2 (TouchArcade): Finally, there is Freeplay mode, which isn’t scored and only ends when you decide to punch out., There’s also no multitasking, which is brutal in a long-form puzzle game like this., At major milestones you will receive a promotion, and a reward to go with it: a new color theme. Y
10 (IGN): You can keep building up clusters for more points or simply tap to clear a space on the board and let more blocks tumble into action - just so long as your quota, slowly piling up centre screen, doesn't overflow. Y
17: Shows Released: 2011-06-28 :: Category: Game Y
20: Lists ASYNC as a nominee in the two categories. Y

No issues in Earwig, either.

Images

There are two images in the article: a PD-TOO logo and a fair-use screenshot with valid NFUR showing gameplay.
