Words With Friends is one of the best turn-based crossword iPhone and iPod Touch apps out there. The app is basically in the style of Scrabble without ever billing itself as such.

Puzzle Paint (4)
9/29/09 •
Puzzle Paint is an iPod Touch and iPhone app with a challenging new gameplay. There have been plenty of block based games, but Puzzle Paint is different because as the challenge progresses, you have to keep track of multiple color balls responding to the same controls. Not only does this provide logistical difficulty, but you ... Read More
Lunarcy (2)
9/10/09 •
An iPhone app that’s truly challenging, Lunarcy has become one of my favorite games. This is partially due to realistic physics that change with each level, the multitude of levels available, and joyous glee wheezing from my inner nerd. Lunarcy is an arcade, puzzle orbit simulation game. Yes it’s a mouthful, and yes it takes ... Read More

8/21/09 •
I can’t think of a single person who hasn’t heard of Frogger. Originally released for arcade games in 1981, it’s one of the most classic games, and still one of the most addictive – as old-school arcade style games tend to be.

When my childhood friends were watching Bambi, The Fox and the Hound, and other Disney flicks, I was watching RoboCop, Terminator, and Aliens. I like to wryly tell my friends that being raised on these movies really shaped me into the person I am today (Violent? Bold and testosterone-laden? Interpret as you will). Terminator, though, ...

Attention squad leader, we are under attack! Kill All Bugs! is a strategy game where the purpose is to kill all of the giant bugs before they destroy the city. This came to me at a perfectly parellel time as I battle fruitflies in my apartment. Step one, place gun turrets near the source of ... Read More
Xpandaballs (0)
7/10/09 •
I have to admit, when I first opened the iPhone app Xpandaballs, I was a little less than thrilled with its uninteresting graphical interface and it’s old-school Asteroids like physics engine. However, after fiddling around with it, and getting adjusted to playing the game for what it is, a puzzle, it really started to grow ... Read More

I just spent the last two hours riding a roller coaster. Where, you may ask? Right here on my iPhone. AirCoaster 3D by San Francisco-based developer Ziconic is seriously addictive. If you hate waiting in lines at amusement parks, then why not make your own simulated roller coaster in your bedroom, in the comfort of ... Read More
