Vote!!! By Chair Entertainment Group iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Vote!!! iPhone is really one of those iPhone games that doesn't need a review. I didn't say stop reading! What I meant was, you are cartoon Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, and you fight each other with different goofy weapons you can buy. That's the game. I decided to review Vote!!! iPhone because the real point of the app is to get people to vote. Even though this is an educational app for the 2012 Presidential Election, the game is actually pretty entertaining. Some of the features you'll like are, Obama and Romney are constantly yapping catch phrases, you can fight on the the Whitehouse Lawn, Oval Office, or Debate Stage, and buy goofy costumes to dress the next president in.

You could get bored pretty quick fighting the same fight with the same two people. What keeps Vote!!! iPhone entertaining is the funny disguises and goofy weapons, like a hot dog on a stick, ice cream, or whack 'em with the Constitution. Whether you like beating up the candidates or not, again the whole purpose of the app is to get people to Vote!!!, and provides you with some information and links. Millions will be playing without a doubt, and so far you can clearly see Barack Obama is destroying Mitt Romney in percentage points. What do you expect when you have people like Todd Akin, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity on your side. We'll see what happens come November, but for now, in game world Obama seems to be the winner in Vote!!!.

Mikey Shorts By BeaverTap Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

If you've read WuzAPPenin reviews before, you know I love me some Super Mario type feel games. Mikey Shorts is without a doubt the best one I have found so far in the platform game category, and the controls are spectacular. You are Mikey, and your job is to rescue people that have been turned into statues. Touch "every" statue, grab coins, jump on moving platforms, and kill or avoid harmless in your way robots through 72 levels of fun! Yes I did quote "every" statue because you have to fill up the bar, or you can't bust through the gates to slowly get Mikey's memory back.

A few fun features with Mikey Shorts are spending your coins on disguises, find the hidden golden shorts in every level, and race your ghost to beat your best time. There is also online achievements and scores, and in options you can even move the controls wherever you please. The good or bad with Mikey Shorts, depending on how you look at it, is nothing other than falling to your death is going to kill you, as the real point is to find the fastest routes to get the oh so famous three stars. As you try to beat the fastest times on the leader-board, you'll find yourself restarting levels until you've lost all feeling in your hand. I even have Mikey Shorts to thank for entertaining me instead of throwing my TV controller at Sean Hannity! This is the first iPhone app for BeaverTap Games, and with more updates to come, Mikey Shorts will keep you entertained for hours.

Jackrabbit Sunshine By Studio MFB iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Jackrabbit Sunshine is a great game for endless runner fanatics. I myself am tired of endless runner games swiping and sliding to a point I'll never get past, like those of us who have tried to dunk without success. Don't get me wrong, the graphics are amazing for this category of iPhone game, but everyone has their preferences. What brought me to review Jackrabbit Sunshine is the controls are a tad different than normal endless runner games, there is an end, and it gives you more of a get lost in an Alice in Wonderland mushroom adventure world. Instead of having to swipe around 90 degree angle cliffs, you simply move your finger to the left and right to steer your jackrabbit, and swipe up to hop fences.

The storyline is you are a jackrabbit who hops through a mushroom forest filled with flowers to collect and rack up multiplier points, and mushrooms in your way to slow you down. The point of the Jackrabbit Sunshine is to see how far you can get before the sun sets, which you actually see happening in the sky above. When the moon and fireflies come out, the game is over, so eat carrots for speed boosts, and grab sunflowers to turn back time to catch a few extra sun rays. This is the first iPhone app for Studio MFB, and what a way to start! The developer Matt Baranowski has made it clear that this is just the beginning of the Jackrabbit Sunshine adventure, and I can't wait to see that red update in the app store soon.

Mega Run - Redford's Adventure By Get Set Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

By now you must be familiar with games like Mega Jump or something similar. I have to be honest, the north moving games just are not for me, i'm an east and west gamer. Well, the good news is now you can play with Get Set Games graphics with forward moving Mega Run. Play as seven different characters through beautiful landscapes, and collect coins, gems, stars, and power ups. In your way of 64 levels are monsters you can hop on to kill, cliffs to jump over, walls to bust through, and plenty of other trinkets to keep you happy.

As you travel non stop through each level, you can level up to unlock and spend coins on accessories to freeze enemies, fly over obstacles,change characters, supersize your character, and a ton more. Every object catches your eye and does something different, like the bounce you back totem statues. The point is to grab everything you can without stopping, but I kind of wish there was an option to be able to move as you please. Either way, if you enjoyed games like Mega Jump, you'll definitely love Mega Run - Redford's Adventure.

Riptide GP By Vector Unit iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

I rarely ever download racing games because the controls just never feel right for me, no matter how incredible the graphics are. Well, for some reason I must have been in a FREE downloading mood that day, and I came across Riptide GP. Choose from different jet skis, and race through choppy river waters that bring you right into the screen. [WARNING: DON'T PLAY IN THE RAIN STANDING BY YOURSELF] I decided to review Riptide GP mainly because you can swipe your fingers in different directions to perform tricks off jumps. Who wants to wait for the big yellow jumps? See a nice wave, do a trick off that as well! If you land a trick, you can hit the boost and hit warp speed for a few seconds.

The rest of the game has the same features as other racing games, where you can unlock crafts and new races. The menus are very user friendly for your option to choose from Race, Hot Lap, or Championship. You can change the controls, but I like the default tilt your screen to turn, and touch the left side to brake. Riptide GP is really a fun racing game if you want to get your feet wet for a bit. Also, if you use the word "y'all", or maybe "jeet?" to ask a question when hungry, try Shine Runner!

SplitApple By MKO Games iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Since archery was one of the most watched sports of the 2012 Summer Olympics, I figured it was time to find a solid iPhone game to give you your bullseye fix. I've downloaded a slew of archery iPhone games, and the only one that met most of my expectations was SplitApple. The graphics resemble a 3D painting as you stare down the bullseye, surrounded by swaying trees and city neighborhoods in the backdrop. To fire your arrow, all you have to do is slide your finger down the button to zoom in, move your iPhone around to aim, and let go. What keeps the game realistic and challenging, is you can choose different wind directions, change the target distance, and even change to moving targets. Feeling confident, see if you can slice apples in half hanging from the trees to get bonus points. I even love the accent when the game say's "spleet apple", or "bools eye".

You'll keep this app for awhile as you can compare your scores on the leaderboard, and choose from five different playing options. PRACTICE before you embarrass yourself on the leaderboard, CHALLENGE switches up distance and targets, shoot fast in TIME TRIALS if you're flight attendant said "please turn off all electronic devices", SURVIVAL, miss the target and lose an arrow, hit a bull or apple, gain arrows. Finally there's POP UP where you aim at random targets that, you guessed it, pop up. Don't like the direction you have to move your iPhone to aim? No problem, in options you can change that as well as change the bow side if you're left handed. I was hoping to find an Olympic archery game so I could nervously wait for the right moment to let go of the arrow as it sticks in the bullseye to beat Italy! SplitApple and its multiple price options including a free version, is not a brand new app to meet that Summer Olympic expectation, but it doesn't matter, because I've yet to find something better in its category!

Athletics: Summer Sports By Tangram3D iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Don't even try to tell me you're not loving the Summer Olympics right now. I've been searching for a decent Olympic game app, and I finally found one in Athletics: Summer Sports. Take your country through 30 different events, and 5 competitions like triathlons and decathlons to compete for gold. The games 3D graphics are very good for the iPhone, and I love how many different sports you can play to keep you coming back. If you want to do things like swim, run, long jump, javelin, or row, you'll need to tap the screen repeatedly as fast as you can if you plan on winning a gold medal. Not so fast, if it's one of the longer races, you'll need to change your tapping pace to conserve energy just like Michael Phelps and Missy Franklin! Lets get inspired people, you think this is a joke? Get ready to sweat, give up, even cry, as you battle to beat real scores across the world!

Athletics: Summer Sports doesn't have every Olympic event, but with other sports like diving, fencing, archery, and pistol shooting, there are plenty of events to keep you playing and competing with friends on the leaderboard. You can even split the screen to get you and your lovers blood flowing! If I could add an update, different ways to touch the screen when playing an event would be better, and a difficulty option, as you better plan on losing unless you are a real fast tapping Olympian. Tangram3D has really taken their time with this app, and I hope with great reviews, we'll get more sports and features like the yellow world record line. If you're watching every minute of the Summer Olympics and looking to join in on the medals in the laziest way possible, well except for the finger exercises, Athletics: Summer Sports is the app for you.

Timmy - feat. The Insulting Monkey By Innovation Dreams AB iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Timmy is one of those apps that seems to have slipped under the radar for awhile now. The developer quotes that it's similar to Angry Birds in the description, so those of you who hate apps that are similar to blockbuster games like Angry Birds and Mario, slowly hit the back button. The game plays very similar to Angry Birds, except you're are a tank, and you need to blow up the Insulting Monkey. If you're are gun shooting app lover, it's nice to be able to use different weapons like missiles, grenades, and sticky bombs. While choosing the correct velocity and angle, you need to blow up the Insulting Monkey and his Banana Warriors!

To keep the screen filled with some physics, you have your usual blocks and walls you can knock down as well. This game isn't too shabby, and I like that the Innovation Dreams AB developer started out with no programming experience, and just picked up a book. Gives me a little hope that someday I can learn too! So if you enjoyed Angry Birds but would like some explosions, check out Timmy - feat. The Insulting Monkey. How could you not download something from a developer who also has a Yo Momma Jokes app!

Catapult King By Chillingo iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

Catapult King immediately caught my eye because of the amazing 3-D graphics. Take Angry Birds, inject it with steroids, and add some knights, castles, dragons, and a princess to rescue. You're behind a catapult staring out at a beautiful green scenery of box castles and nose picking little knights to knock down with cannonballs. The sound and realistic controls as you stretch back on your catapult are perfect.

You can stretch any direction, slide the camera view around your fantasy world to hit a pesky knight in the family jewels, and even change the angle of your catapult. As you get through 64 different levels, you can win cannonballs like Earth Shock, Lunar Strike, and enchant your catapult to really do some damage. If your an app junky like me, you have definitely come across a Chillingo iPhone game. I really enjoy every feature there is to offer, and just writing about Catapult King makes me want to play. In fact, I'm outta here!

CarTunes Music Player By Ryan Oksenhorn iPhone Review

Follow Twitter | E-mail to Friend | App

I had to do a review on CarTunes Music Player because it's going to be on my iPhone until it dies. Forget your Music iPhone app and swipe, flick, and pinch to your iPod songs. The interface is beautiful, and the multiple screen touches do what they are supposed to. Are you ready for your instructions, don't zone out on me just yet? While listening to a song, slide up with one finger to see your music category lists, or tap to pause and play. Flick left or right to go to the next or previous song, and hold your swipe to fast forward or rewind. You can pinch to see the album, pinch again to see the artist, and even slide down to tweet.

I saved the best feature for last, since many of us have broken volume controls, or a who the heck made this case, and where do my fingers fit! Simply hold and slide up or down with one finger to colorfully increase or decrease the volume. It's always funny to me when an app is better than the app that comes with your iPhone. I guess we wouldn't have apps like CarTunes Music Player otherwise, so good news for us. CarTunes gets a Summer Olympics Gold Medal in my book, well except without the sweat. It could be a little higher than you normally pay for an app like this depending if it's on sale or not, but either way, it's a good one!
