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

*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

I may have never been a manga girl, myself, but there are plenty of girls out there who are. Actually, come to think of it, when I drew cartoon characters in Junior High, going into High School, they were in that typical cutesy, manga style: my girl characters boasted cartoonishly large heads; big, wide set ...

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
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

As indicated by the title’s pun, Fowlplay by Happynin Games is a game of foulplay conducted, no less, by a mischievous bird of a feather. Actually, if I wanted to nitpick, the word fowl is more typically used for chickens, or other domesticated birds kept chiefly for the purposes of their eggs or flesh, and ... Read More

People in this country tend to view bilingualism with an air of impressiveness, that it’s a rare skill few possess. They often reply, when asked if they speak another language, with astonishing sincerity coupled with a step back, “Oh god no, I don’t speak a word of Spanish.” There are many people who point to ...

Awhile back I wrote a review on Peekaboo Barn, exclaiming how cute and clever it was, piquing a child’s imagination to see what was behind those barn doors, making whinnying noises, or cock-a-doodle-doos. I enjoyed the app so immensely I included it in the article 6 Apps That Make Mom’s Life Easier, because the app ... Read More
Whimsy Animals (1)
3/03/10 •
Here’s a cute puzzle app for children – Whimsy Animals, by David Ross. It’s the rare household with children that doesn’t have at least one puzzle hidden somewhere, in the back of a closet, or out in the open on the bedroom floor. Puzzles are not only fun to put together, they work your child’s ... Read More

Yesterday, we checked out Pocket Story – The Boy Giant and nurtured our burgeoning skill at reading. But, before we can actually read, we need to learn that cornerstone of language, itself: the alphabet. Before learning to use a language, you must first learn its alphabet, which are the building blocks not only of speech, ... Read More
