Call me crazy, but internet radio is pretty much the same no matter where you’re getting it. The content, that is… it’s the same! With the exception of apps like Pandora and Boombox that let you personalize your own “station”, straight-up internet radio is always just internet radio. There’s a gazillion internet radio stations out there, and it seems like there are just as many internet radio iPhone apps. So what makes one different from the other?

The answer is partially in features, but in my mind it’s mostly in the app’s style, just like if you’re buying an actual radio at a store. Do you want the radio that looks cool and has high-quality components, or do you want the one that looks like a cheap piece of crap? Drool Radio is the one that looks cool. It’s very retro, very slick, and has just about everything you could ask for in a pure internet radio app.

Toon Tango lets you stick a head on a dancing cartoon! You’ve seen it done before, probably on those videos by JibJab or ElfYourself.

Magical Tower Defense is… duh! …a tower defense game, and the graphics look great. User reviews indicate that beating the game doesn’t take very long, though.

Sushi Chain

The “time management” genre of games doesn’t sound all that sexy, but these games can be surprisingly fun. Sally’s Spa is great, and Sushi Chain is kind of similar but it’s obviously in a much different setting.

Sushi Chain has you running a sushi bar where customers are really short on patience and the further you get the more kinds of sushi you have to make. Unlike Sally’s Spa you’re not sprinting from station to station; instead, the challenge here is being able to remember all the recipes for the growing number of sushi dishes you have to prepare, and you also have to keep yourself stocked with all the ingredients such as seaweed (nori), octopus (tako), rice, salmon, and roe.

iGomoku is an iPhone-ized version of Gomoku, a two-player strategy game where your goal is to line up 5 stones in a row. The game is believed to have been invented in China, and if it was invented in China it’s probably been around for 50 billion years!
