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
Eat This Not That Game (0)

Diet book are always big sellers. French Women Don’t Get Fat, The Okinawa Diet, The China Study, Dr. Atkin’s New Diet Revolution, and The Best Life Diet are but a few of the the most notable diet books from the last decade, each one acclaimed in its own right, each one later lambasted, and each ...

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, ... Read More
Ascent (0)
4/13/10 •
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

Scrabble is my reliable stand-by for word games, but every now and then I want something a little different. It’s true, it’s hard to beat Scrabble, Boggle, and Bookworm, even Bananagrams (my new favorite) for their insane levels of unceasing fun, but when it comes to the iPhone, there are so many games in general, ...

On This Day (0)
4/08/10 •
There haven’t been too many apps lately that have caught my eye. There are so many apps out there already, plus new ones being made for the iPad, not to mention the Android system of apps – it’s simply overwhelming. And, half of those apps – hell, three quarters – are pretty lackluster, or just ... Read More

4/05/10 •
With so many games in the iTunes Store, it’s easy to overlook plenty of more obscure, lesser-known games that, in many ways, prove to be more thought-provoking or original. There are already hundreds, if not thousands of block-breaking or bubble-popping games, so much that I don’t even want to experiment with any more now that ... 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 ...

3/31/10 •
Awhile back we reviewed an excellent navigational and local-discovery app by the name of SOHOinmypocket by AppFury. When covering that app, not only did I have memories of the east coast and my days in New York, I was amusingly reminded of that now, almost defunct toy I would play with in my childhood, of ...

Numbl: Number jumble fun.™ (1)
3/30/10 •
Here’s a game we haven’t seen on Appstruck for awhile – a math game. Awhile back we reviewed what we surmised as a kid’s math game, by the name of Razor Reef Brain Addition, a game one of our writers felt marked a perfect marriage between fun and education. Today, we have Numbl: Number jumble ... Read More
