Defend Your Castle

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted April 30th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: FUN

Being a fan of the web version of this game, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. It is basically the same game, but they have modified it for the iPhone platform. Still fun and addictive, but maybe only at the sale price.

Space Invaders

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted April 28th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: OVERPRICED

This is exactly space invaders as you remember. Many of us played the first time round (*koff*). The charm about it is that it is actually by the original folks who brought it to us in 1978. Would have been nice if they gave us the same prices! The game essentially is a small space ship along the bottom, that has to shoot at the space invaders shooting and coming down towards you.

Westward

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted April 24th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: RECOMMENDED

This is a virtual villagers / sim style game. You control the people to gather resources, defend your land and generate a thriving community. You play as a Frontier settler and it has nice graphics that makes the westward 'cowboy' theme look really fun. Like all sim games this can be a real time hog so be warned!

Wave & Show

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted April 20th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: RECOMMENDED

Wave & Show is a way to get someone's attention across a room (or any space). Bright flashing big letters (caps but you can disable that) of your message are visible for quite a long distance. By typing a simple text message and waving it in the air in a downward to upward motion you can have your message read by the person opposite you. It is drawing upon the basic principles of persistence of vision that allows you to read the message written.

ibisMail

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted March 31st, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: BELOW AVERAGE

Unfortunately this app has been released before it is ready. I could not get it to work with any POP3 email accounts (and have read customers saying that IMAP didn't seem to work), and I also could not get it to work with GMail. I also tried Hotmail accounts and other generic accounts. None worked with this application in my experience.

Crazy Drops

iPhone App - Designed for the iPhone, compatible with the iPad

Posted March 16th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: AVERAGE

This app is a take on the Tetris variation. You have to connect 4 or more drops of the same colour and the levels are grouped into 'ages of planets' so Precambrian to Cenozoic. Which makes for nice visuals in this game.

Posted March 14th, 2009 by Christine Morris
Our Rating: :: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

In this game, you need to build a path to save the city from the nuclear waste that has been released from a faulty reactor. There is also a puzzle mode, which is really where it becomes a great challenge and slightly unusual from the other pipe style games.

Posted March 5th, 2009 by Christine Morris

Posted March 4th, 2009 by Christine Morris
