    Fly-Flap (0)

    4/07/10 •

    *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

    Bernoulli Ball (0)

    3/29/10 •

    I was listening to Hotel by Broken Social Scene this morning as I went about my routine – walk dog, shower, breakfast, fiddle with apps – and I noticed this one app, Bernoulli Ball, really complemented the music at hand. I’m always tickled by these strange nuances of life, so I decided to explore the ... Read More

    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

    Super Juicy (1)

    3/22/10 •

    I’m not sure why Super Juicy is called “super juicy”, because there are no shapely, attractive women in this app, nor is there any orange juice involved. I guess I could say it’s easy to get super juiced in this game, because it surges the adrenaline, gets the heart pumping, but I’ll just leave the ... Read More

    3/18/10 •

    We review a lot of apps here on Appstruck, so much that we encounter not-so-great apps, apps that make us laugh, apps that make us cringe, and every so often, apps that are so fantastic it’s hard to stray from them. When it comes to games, I constantly go back to my mantra of the ... Read More

    Kill the Fly (1)

    3/10/10 •

    BAANZAAII!!!! These crazy flies are the real killers of Kill the Fly. The Kamikaze fly is but one of the many winged pests you will encounter in this strangely addicting app by Playsteria, an appropriately titled company name, if I may say so myself. Kill the Fly will definitely drive you to hysteria, if in ... Read More

    It’s too easy to overlook all the great games in the App Store. With so many options, and so many new games released every day, it’s easy to just get caught up in what Apple recommends as the latest and greatest. I like to search deep down into the bowels of the App Store, sifting ... Read More

    Kid’z Maze (1)

    2/24/10 •

    Whenever I see the plethora of kids apps in the iTunes App Store, I’m constantly reminded of how big this market is – even Apple recently highlighted a section called Apps for Kids in that rotating column of theirs at the top of the App Store screen. Given my exceptional reviews of a few kids ... Read More

    Bad Apples (0)

    2/10/10 •

    Every so often I come across a game that I can see myself playing over and over again. Or one, at least, that’s clever and quirky enough to wedge itself into my usual game rotation; given my obsessiveness over games, this is hardly a trifle characteristic. Bad Apples by Metaversal Studios is one such game ... Read More

    Knife Toss (1)

    2/09/10 •

    Did you ever have a phobia as a kid? Plenty of kids do, as I did to a degree. Mine was a little more cliche: I was scared of clowns. Maybe not downright petrified of them, but I certainly never thought they were cute, or appealing, with their strangely painted faces and warped features, bright ... Read More
