Pocket God icon

Is the man getting you down? Ever wished you could call the shots? Pocket God is here to fulfill your dreams. This new game from Bolt Creative allows you to be the god of a small island nation. And by “small” I mean small — only six pygmies to an island, folks. More specifically, only [...]

Kitty Kannon: Ready, Aim, Meow!

Before I write this review, I just need to let you know: I’m not sure whether Kitty Kannon by Stix&Stones is intended for cat lovers or cat haters. And this is, obviously, very important information! Because on one hand, there’s a cute kitty! It meows! Perfect for cat lovers! On the other hand: Kitty Kannon, [...]

Site Check: Browse the Web Safely on iPhone

“Stay alert,” my father always told me; a reminder to his little girl that it pays to be careful, that safety is not just a matter of luck, but something to actively seek. Site Check, developed by Kevin O’Regan, aims to be a protective parent for the iPhone, allowing users to check websites and web [...]

Monster Memory: Do The Monster Match

If you’re afraid of ghosts and ghouls and things that go bump in the night, you had better leave a light on, because…no, not really. Monster Memory, despite being chock-full of, well, monsters, isn’t scary at all. Monster Memory is a cute and simple memory-matching game, but instead of matching random items, you’re trying to [...]

PhotoTalk: Add Audio Clips to iPhone Photos

Since iPhone owners are still without a video-shooting mode, Metacreature Apps is trying to help ease the pain with PhotoTalk, an application which allows users to add up to 30 seconds of audio to their photos. (The Metacreature Apps site has a few demonstration videos.) PhotoTalk is extremely simple to use. Simply open PhotoTalk and [...]

CatDoku: Cat Sudoku has Nine Cats But Not Nine Lives

CatDoku – Cat Sudoku, created by James Thomson and presented by ELogicPuzzles, is exactly what you think it is: a version of the popular logic game Sudoku, using cats instead of numbers. In case you’ve somehow missed out on Sudoku, the concept is fairly simple. You begin with a field of squares — nine large [...]

iMantra: Virtual Meditation for the Guru-On-the-Go

Ever wished you had a pocket guru? iMantra is here to help. iMantra from Studio Six Digital offers dozens of mantras in several different categories, including Buddhist, Hindu, Universal and Planetary. I must confess, I know next-to-nothing about meditation, Buddhism, chanting, or anything similar. My personal zen moments are more likely to be brought about [...]

Archibald’s Adventures: Excellent Platformer-style Action

Archibald’s Adventures – As a child of the eighties (I was born in ’81), I spent countless hours of my childhood playing the Super Mario Brothers games. I know them, I love them, and I won’t lie, sometimes I miss them. So Archibald’s Adventures, developed by Rake in Grass, is a very welcome addition to [...]

The Flakery: Creating Virtual Snowflakes is Pretty Cool

I live in New York. For the the first 26 years of my life, I lived in Florida, but now I live in New York. And New York? Is cold. So, to be totally honest, I’m really kind of over snow. And because of that, I should probably hate The Flakery, an application created by Paul Maciorowski that allows users to create virtual paper snowflakes.

Chop Sushi: Cooking Up Some Raw Fun in Match-Three Genre

Good news for the less-adventurous eaters out there: you don’t have to like actual sushi to enjoy Chop Sushi, the puzzle game by THQ. Chop Sushi has a few different modes, but the heart of the application is a simple switch-and-match game, similar to Bejeweled. Swap around pieces of sushi to makes rows of three [...]

Send Multiple Pics in One Message with Multi-Photo Email

Multi-Photo Email: In the race to have the shiniest, most feature-heavy phone, iPhone users are pretty much at the front of the pack. I myself went through about three phones a year, always looking for something, well, cooler, until I got my iPhone. Very few phones boast all the tricks of the iPhone, much less [...]

Newtonica2: Plucky Puzzle Game Requires Strategy

Of all the games that I’ve downloaded for my iPhone, Newtonica2 by Fieldsystem Inc is quite possibly the nicest. Or the most aesthetically pleasing, at any rate. The graphics are fairly simple, but they look terrific. The home screen for the game, where you choose which level to play, is lovely. The background music is [...]

i-Doodz Character Creator for Avatars

Noel Hartshorn and Dennis Harrison want you to have Doodz on your iPhone, it appears, which is presumably why they created i-Doodz. i-Doodz is a highly customizable program that allows users to create characters (the aforementioned “doodz”) that they can then save to their phones, use as wallpapers, or even send as e-cards. The application [...]

mi Face – Do you secretly have your crush’s phone number saved in your iPhone? And are you too chicken to snap a photo of him or her to assign to their listing in your contacts? Do you wish you had an easy solution? mi Face, the new application from Mobile App Center, allows users [...]
