Today Apple unveiled their new budget iPhone SE which has a starting price for $399. This is great for those who didn’t want to spend over $700 on a new smartphone.

Apple today announced one beast of an iPad Pro. It’s been completely redesigned to be lighter, thinner, and smaller, while having a larger screen. How is this possible? Easy.

Plastiland HD Review – A Game Made Entirely of Clay [iOS]

Apple’s ‘Spring Forward’ event is a wrap and those who watched it probably learned all they needed to know about the new Apple Watch.

Dying Light Companion App Review – An Essential App for Dying Light Players [iOS]
I’m a big fan of the whole zombie thing, even though many think it’s been done to death already. Zombies or infected are a great way to add antagonists to a game without really offending anyone, except maybe the dead. Zombies and infected are one of the few enemy types that everyone can rally against. … Continue reading
MUJO Review – Battle Gorgons in this Epic Puzzler [iOS]
Match 3 puzzle games are a dime a dozen on the App Store. There are so many of them that it’s sometimes hard to stand out from the crowd. Many of them play exactly the same as each other, but with different themes. MUJO is not like those games. In fact, MUJO takes the whole … Continue reading
Waterlogue Review – Now Anyone Can Produce Stunning Watercolors [iOS]
I’m not usually a fan of apps that try to mimic natural media with your photos because usually, they just don’t do a very good job of it. Many of the apps just apply some rather crude filters that never look natural at all. For the most part, I’ve stayed away from those apps, that … Continue reading
Peggle Blast Review [iOS]
Peggle is one of those games that just never gets old. The first time I played it was back when it first came out on Xbox Live and have since played it on other platforms including iOS, PSN, and on PC. Peggle if you don’t know is highly influenced by the game of pachinko, a … Continue reading

It can be said that there really aren’t that many console quality platform games on mobile devices, so when one does come around, you take notice. Flyhunter Origins for example is developed by Steelwool Games, a dev comprised of former Pixar veterans. With those credentials, this has to be a top notch console level game, … Continue reading
Block2Block Review on iOS – Like Tetris, but Not
One of the very first video game puzzle games I ever played was Tetris back on the original NES. This was a game I spent hours on whenever I played it. Despite there being tons of Tetris clones that may have tried to improve on the formula, the original game is still one of my … Continue reading

Toca Hair Salon Me Review on iOS
I’ve always been a fan of Toca Boca apps mainly because my children genuinely really enjoy playing them. My oldest son loved them when he was younger and my youngest daughter now enjoys playing them nightly.
