*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

DynaZoo is an interesting app. It’s supposedly for kids, but as an adult I found it pretty difficult… then again, my girlfriend does say I’m pretty childish sometimes, so take that with a grain of salt! DynaZoo, by Apps4U, is a matching game on methamphetamine and it’s unapologetic about it – their sub-title is “Animal ... Read More
Pocket Story – The Boy Giant (3)
3/01/10 •
Starting off Kids Week we have a beautifully illustrated storybook app by the name of The Boy Giant by Wotsamaflip, an original tale written by Allan Plenderleith, who happens to be one of the UK’s top screenwriters for children. As noted from earlier reviews, I do favor the storybook app quite a bit -books are ... Read More
Kids Week (0)
3/01/10 •
It’s time for another themed week on Appstruck. For our last themed week we checked out sport apps, so we let our thumbs do all the dirty work by playing football and rolling bowling balls, but this time around we feel like something a bit more, I guess you could say, childish? We’ve received a ... Read More
Gluons (1)
2/10/10 •
Gluons by 2 Cubed reminds me a bit of Furballs in Space! It has the same, ominous music common to sci-fi flicks set in space, and it involves a similar premise of connecting like objects together, to eventually collect enough together to rack up points. Only, in Furballs, the objects played with were of the ... 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
Flinger Frenzy (0)
1/21/10 •
Flinger Frenzy is a new game by Motion 9 Studios that takes a creative twist on the usual block-breaking game. Rather than the usual scenario of objects falling down and you fumbling your fingers around the screen, back and forth, shooting blocks and trying to beat the clock, or catching a ball as it falls ...

Virus Laboratory (1)
1/11/10 •
In yet another rendition of the block breaking game, Taplay has created Virus Laboratory, a very addictive thinking game with viruses as your foes and medicines as your allies. The idea is cute, if not silly, and the presentation is colorful and seamless, a well-laid out game with a bright array of angry and anxious-looking ... Read More
Where’s Waldo? The Fantastic Journey (0)
1/05/10 •
Once upon a time, a young man named Waldo took the first steps toward a great adventure… For anyone who enjoyed the Where’s Waldo? book series, be sure to check out the new Where’s Waldo? iPhone app by Classic Media. Not only is it just as good as the books, it offers some interesting new ... Read More
Block Drop (1)
8/17/09 •
Epiphany came amidst my overwealming stress of keeping my two jobs and my sanity in the kind of balance you achieve while sparring with a bear. This delightful moment of clarity: one advantage of having an iPhone is an immediate escape from reality through apps. One way to do so is become immersed within one ... Read More
