    Rubber Knife Throw (0)

    4/20/10 •

    Rubber Knife Throw is a perfect example of what I call a “just for fun” app. Easy to pick up and put down, easy to learn, and mildly entertaining for those casual, quiet moments in life when you’re in between duties and looking around for something to do. Despite the words like “knife” and “throw” ... Read More

    I love meaningless games. I had my tea this morning, black tea, with milk and honey – the only way to drink tea – walked the dog, had a hearty breakfast of homemade buckwheat granola and almond milk, a handful of kale chips from the night before, and my daily vitamin D and fish oil, ...

    It took me ages to figure out Ascent, a new game by SpareTime Apps that will certainly fill up whatever spare time you have – and, as in my case, start to invade your work time as well. It’s a brilliantly conceived game, once you over come the head-scratching beginning, and now that I’ve become ... Read More

    *Lets out primal scream* GGRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWRRRRRR!!! Okay, maybe that’s more of a animal roar, equivalent to me morphing into some hairy creature, with large, glistening fangs, and tearing off my shirt to make way for my expanding, beastly chest. Why the screaming? The panting and pounding of the chest, the wrath? Fly-Flap, a new game by ... Read More

    Mansion Expansion (0)

    4/02/10 •

    A very quirky and, I have to say, very original game, Mansion Expansion achieves an almost impossible task: it makes real estate look fun. When I think of real estate, I think of people figuring out down payments, and leases, and mortgages, potentially second mortgages, and even foreclosures, given the recent times. Being a realtor ...

    What do you get when you combine Mario Brothers with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon? I don’t know, but it may be a little something like Chop Chop Ninja. Let me introduce you to my latest addiction, in my cathedral compendium of addictions, mind you, but an addiction nevertheless – Chop Chop Ninja by Gamerizon has ... Read More

    Here’s another game that shot to the top of the Most Downloaded list on the iTunes Store. Surprisingly enough, it’s not a game I would expect to reach the top of any list, but then again, I tend to stray from most hunting style games (though I admit a certain fetish, as a kid, for ...

    Open Fire Gold (0)

    3/25/10 •

    Open Fire Gold by BlueGill Studios starts out promising. So much, that I was on-the-edge-of-my-seat ready, brow furrowed in concentration, doing the preemptive wiping of my palms on my jeans, just in case they started sweating. The music is right on the mark, grinding with a pop rock edge, appropriate for any military movie – ... Read More

    3/17/10 •

    Like any regular gamer, I love the full-fledged game, with background stories, plenty of blood and gore, maybe an RPG element, and some serious action. I relish good graphics, good controls, and I approve of well-laid out character sketches and interesting design aesthetics. But, when it comes to kicking back on those lazy, hazy days, ... Read More

    Have you ever played beach volleyball? You should try it some time, it’s really fun. It doesn’t get much better than sunny days on a beach, in your swimsuit, smacking a ball back and forth over a net. But, have you tried beach volleyball using only your belly? That version takes some serious skill – ... Read More
