I’m as delighted as I am pained to review Keep Defenders from Itty-Bitty Games LLC and hopefully that statement makes sense by the end of this review.  What we have here is a game billing itself as a fast-paced realtime combat game.  I’ll buy that; quite accurate and while some reviewers are lumping it into the castle defense [...]

Adventure puzzle hidden-object finding games are always good…especially when they’re free! Check the bottom of the post for a promo code.

Growing up I was a big fan of point and click action games. This was due to that fact that my step-father worked at sierra entertainment, and we got all the games for free. I have been waiting for these types of games to surface in the app store.
When I came across Laura Jones and [...]

 
The iPod Touch and iPhone music players, although adequate and stable, haven’t really seen a revolutionary change since it debuted in the very first iPod.  That’s not to say that it’s a bad player, because it isn’t.  It still sets the standard for the majority of players out there.  But it is a little…how do [...]


For the past few days, I’ve been rolling out lots of reviews for the action-y, thrilling and edge of your seat type iPhone games. So I figured that I would change pace for a while, and review an app that features a calm, relaxing and ubiquitous type of app store puzzle- Uni Sudoku by David [...]

I’ve been enamored by the concept of gaming since before I could read; Zelda on the NES being the first game I ever played. Back in the day, a half-way decent story and a sword was all that was needed to make a good RPG but the genre has come a long way since [...]

If I asked you “Who shot Alexander Hamilton in that famous duel?” you might answer something like aaon uhr, or maybe Aaron Burr. WRONG! I SHOT HIM!… O.K. you were right, I didn’t shoot him, but I shot someone that looked like him…O.K., O.K. maybe he looked nothing like Alexander Hamilton but I did shoot [...]

 
As the father of a 5-year-old girl, I’ve become familiar with all kinds of kids programs.  Yo Gabba Gabba, Dora the Explorer, Curious George, Handy Manny, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Ni Hao Ki-Lan…you name it, I’ve watched it. Many, many times.  Some shows are just barely tolerable and others have me wondering what the heck those grown-ups were smokin’ [...]

When it came time to give Farm Frenzy 2 a test drive, I was- I’ll admit- kinda looking forward to it.  The description of the game sounded like it had a lot in common with a certain Facebook game involving farms:  growing grass, feeding farm animals, collecting eggs, taking produce to the market, making buildings, [...]

Bubble Trouble can be described by one word: addictive. This app by XWUZ Entertainment my sport a $2.00 price tag, but is well worth every cent. It is a game with a simple objective: get rid of as many shapes as possible.
The way that this task is accomplished is by clicking groups of three or [...]

In spite of the numerous ways an iPod Touch or iPhone can help you to stay connected or easily call up information on just about everything, most of the items in the AppStore share a singular purpose: they serve as distractions, as a means to help us pass the time.  They can be fun distractions, educational distractions, but I [...]

 
I am an avid reader, always have been.  What I read has changed dramatically, however.  These days, I read mostly work stuff.  Email, journal articles, memos, forms, handbooks- you name it, I read it.  But I’m not the fastest reader in the world, especially when I’m not reading for pleasure.  And because I’ve always wanted [...]
