Sexy Memory – Better Than Ordinary Memory Match Games [$20 starbucks giveaway]

($20 starbucks gift card giveaway – see end of article for details)

With nearly 100,000 applications in the App Store, what’s a developer got to do to get noticed by the buying public? Besides orchestrating a publicity stunt by pretending your app is stuck in a runaway balloon (bracing for the onslaught of Balloon Boy apps), you could try releasing a copy-cat of a previously banished app. The $1,000 “I Am Rich” app is now available from a different developer as “You Are Rich” (only $100 this time). One popular technique is to submit your app to Apple with searchable keywords of top-selling apps (defined as “keyword whoring” – we just made that up). For example, search “Pocket God” in iTunes and results other than the Pocket God app are riding the coattails of Pocket God’s success. Another method is incorporating trendy features into the app … make it fart or barf, include zombies and of course … make it sexy.

It’s been well documented on KRAPPS that sex sells. Just search keyword “sexy” in iTunes and you’ll see hundreds of sexy results … Sexy Alarm Clock, Sexy Sudoku, Sexy Flashlight, Sexy Alphabet, Sexy Bikini Farts, even Sexy Senior Citizens. The sheer number of sexy apps is mind-boggling … but then again, it makes dollars and cents … sex sells.

For the most part, sexy apps are weak. Nothing against hot chicks, but when an app features a professional voice model who simply recites the ABC’s in an erotic and sexual manner … well, that’s just lame. So how about the app Sexy Memory [iTunes] from Giant Mobile? Is this traditional memory match game, with the trendy “sexy” descriptor, a sack of suck? Inquiring minds want to know (they told us), so we put our crackpot staff to the task.

Let’s get straight to the point … is Sexy Memory sexy? Well if you think matching gorgeous world-class models from J. Stephen Hicks’ Digital Desire is sexy, then the answer is a resounding “YES”!

Sexy Memory went the whole nine yards and partnered with Digital Desire to present 15 lovely young ladies for your memory matching desires. Unlike some apps, there are no dark alley, copyright rip-off infringements going on with Sexy Memory.

What’s cool about Sexy Memory and increases repeated gameplay are the rewards. Users can earn from 1 to 3 points for every puzzle solved depending on difficulty levels based on decreasing time limits. For every five points earned, you’ll be awarded a trophy … high-quality wallpaper of a Digital Desire girl, stored in the app’s Trophy Room and can be used on your iPhone. The Trophy Room can display up to 99 wallpapers, thus effectively satisfying even the most mensa Sexy Memory player.

From a techie geeky point of view, Sexy Memory is built (coded) superb. The app is responsive, in-game sounds are slick, the UI is outstanding and after 178 hours of testing, we experienced no sexy crashes. For 99 cents and assuming you appreciate an adult twist designed to sharpen your short-term and sensory memory skills, Sexy Memory [iTunes] is a sexy steal of a deal.

GIVEAWAY
Of course no sexy article would be complete without a sexy giveaway. We’re giving away coffee in form of a $20 sexy Starbucks gift card. Leave a comment below (it doesn’t have to be sexy) by Sun, Oct. 25, 11:59pm PST and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win the $20 gift card. Why a coffee giveaway? – because we received a memo that said coffee is sexy. Why Starbucks? – because “Sexy Starbucks” sounds cool, it’s got that whole “S” thing going on.

A sexy comment is way better than a non-sexy comment. You should have made it mandatory.

And by the way... This comment is very sexy.

Sexy is clearly defined for App purposes in male terms. When do we women get Sexy App?
