Tap Tap Revenge 3 is on sale for free – normally $.99
If you’ve been tapping away at Tap Tap Revenge 2.6 because you got it when it was free and didn’t want to pay for Tap Tap 3, the tables have turned! Now 2.6 costs a buck and 3 is free.
Tap Tap Revenge 3 is all kinds of fancy with 1 player, 2 player, and online play modes and of course it lets you download “real” music from real artists you’ve probably heard on the radio or on your MTV. For the uninitiated, Tap Tap Revenge is basically a mobile variation on Guitar Hero where your instrument is your iPhone and you tap along to the beat of the music.
I like that Tapulous has really taken this concept and sprinted with it, but at the same time I’m a little disappointed with Tap Tap 3′s stability… even after restarting my iPhone after downloading the game, I still had some issues with the app freezing up on me. It’s still a very playable game, though, and I have a feeling Tapulous is already working on fixing known bugs in the system. If you like playing along with music and discovering new stuff to listen to, get this app while the price is zero.

WTF: Boob Party

With so many app requests languishing in my inbox I’m a little reluctant to spend time on an app like Boob Party, but I just think it’s funny that (a) there’s an app called Boob Party, and (b) searching iTunes for “boobs” now yields over 100 sure-to-be-disappointing results that want to be “titillating” but are just kind of… eh.
Because Apple has never, and will never, allow nudity or porn in the App Store, apps like Boob Party pretty much always amount to the same thing which is mostly-tame photos and/or videos of scantily clad girls. I like scantily clad girls as much as the next guy but the reality is that there’s nothing these apps can show me that I haven’t already seen a billion times in the dark reaches of the interwebs. Guys who aren’t huge pervs like me might get more of a “rise” out of Boob Party than I did but, again, this kind of content is limited to the point where if you’ve seen one boob app you truly have seen them all.

Bebbled: The XMAS Challenge is on sale for free – normally $.99
Bebbled is one of those puzzle games that will drive you up the freakin’ wall if you’re the type of person who absolutely refuses to give up! It’s a little like reMovem with all the pretty colors and match gameplay, but it also lets you rotate your iPhone to rearrange the balls.
Like reMovem, your basic task is to knock out like-colored groups of “bebs” with double-taps. The more bebs you can take out at once the more points you score, and if you eliminate an entire column then everything to the left will slide over to fill the gap. You can play Freestyle which is casual and pressure-free, and the really hardcore puzzle solving comes in Campaign mode where you need to meet certain goals in order to clear the level. I made it through the first four levels in Campaign and that was all I could manage; hopefully your brain is bigger than mine (most are) if you’re planning to get to Level 5.
Even though this game is called “The XMAS Challenge” that doesn’t mean you need to dump it on December 26th. It includes both themed and non-themed versions of the game, and I think I’d be willing to pay a dollar for it if I were more of a Puzzler but you can get it for free until December 31st!

Cornhole All-Stars is on sale for free – normally $1.99
I *LOVE* it when makers of high-quality games hand out their awesome work for free! Cornhole All-Stars is an iPhone-ized version of that beanbag game you see people playing on sidewalks and outside bars. Call it what you want… cornhole, bean bag toss, tailgate toss, whatever… this is a quality game that offers both CPU and pass-n-play modes where you can go either head-to-head with a friend or play in teams.
The physics of the bean bag tossing only qualify as “pretty good” in my book, but the 3D graphics are great and the level of polish on Cornhole All-Stars is way up there. This is a fun game that you’ll definitely enjoy if you’re a fan of the real thing, and it should make for a great bar companion in these winter months when freezing your ass off to play outdoors just isn’t an option.

Golden Miner Christmas

Back in the day I was a fan of the flash version of Golden Miner and I liked Colorme Info Tech’s iPhone port when I reviewed it earlier this year… but this Christmas version of the game is kind of… meh.
The thing about the “classic” version of Golden Miner that makes it fun is that there are levels to clear and new obstacles to deal with as you progress through the game. Golden Miner Christmas, however, is basically just one neverending level that features all kinds of cool little Christmas things like candy, tree ornaments, and toys (iPhones included!) but the game gets pretty old pretty quick.
Obstacles are also a part of this Christmas version of the game but they seem to be more of a nuisance than strategically placed barriers. Several different kinds of critters crowd the screen and there’s some weird flying demon thing that you’re supposed to fight off by pressing the fairy button in the bottom right corner. Once again… meh. Not really buying it.
If you know this game from playing it online and want it on your iPhone, go for the original or Colorme’s Golden Miner 2. This Christmas game you can skip right over.

I dunno what the flying demons are up to - all I care about is reeling in that iPhone
