Are you supposed to tip waitresses in China? What hand gesture will piss people off in Greece? What kinds of scams are tourists falling victim to these days? Graceful, well-traveled folks probably don’t need a handheld device to tell them how to behave and get around in foreign lands, but I’m pretty sure the rest […]

At first glance I thought that this application had to do with numbers, and so I wasn’t too keen on it. But I discovered that even though Ten Squared does have numbers in it, it is more of calculating moves than calculating digits, and it is a whole lot of fun. The graphics are amazing, […]
Every once in a while, a product comes along that you see and say to yourself “why didn’t I think of that”. That is what happened to me when I got my hands on the Movie Wedge. Basically, the Movie Wedge is a miniature bean bag with a triangular shape and a thick bottom lip. […]

Minigore is a dual stick survival shooter […]
With all that fancy technology sitting inside our iPhones, it was only a matter of time before developers came up with yet more ingenious ways of delivering more compelling gaming experiences to help avoid life’s chores. The recently formed Tarver Games (the brainchild of Chris Cross, an ex-EA lead designer and Quinn Banks, a business […]
Freebie Fridays have been somewhat of a tradition over at NimbleBit, where they make one of their games free for a day to promote a new title or the rest of their lineup. In a somewhat unprecedented move, they’ve decided to make all of their games free for a day to promote their new project, […]
While it’s true that imitation can be flattering, someone always takes things a little too far. Certain obsessive individuals copy a person’s dress, hang out at the same spots and generally follow a little too closely for comfort. Where Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart and Krazy Kart Racing could be described politely as having ripped off […]
I admit when we first got approached by EA about Rock Band I was skeptical. After all, Tapulous has been through three revisions of Tap Tap Revolution, the latest of which we reviewed recently and includes an immense in-game store to buy new music to play along with a bunch of other features. However, where […]

3D Tunnel may have been better suited with a catchier name and a background premise. For example, calling the app “Wormhole” and having the spaceship trapped in a wormhole trying to find the way out work be easier to market (unless there is already another app named Wormhole). Game play is pretty simple. You tilt […]

Actually maybe it’s not that much of a surprise given the sheer volume of apps now available. One nice aspect […]
From: Whatsoniphone Darts has been around for a long time and there are a few different versions wandering around the App Store (and some are free). The app is pretty easy to learn. You tilt the device in the direction you want to move the dart and flick it forward with your wrist while keeping […]
From Whatsoniphone The graphics are good, but the motion of the spinning wheels is very choppy and takes away from any sort of “real” feeling you could possibly get from the game. The developers could stand for some better 3D motion graphics. The game play is identical to any classic slot machine. You start with […]
