If You Sudoku, Sudoku 2 HD Pro is For You [iPad App Review]

(written by guest author Tim Giron. follow Tim on Twitter @timgiron)

sudoku-2-iphone-title I think Finger Arts, the developers of Sudoku 2 HD Pro [iTunes $2.99] for the iPad (and Sudoku 2 [iTunes Free] and Sudoku 2 Pro [iTunes $2.99] for the iPhone/iPod Touch), may have missed a better name for these apps: Squeeeeeeee!doku.  This is based on a conversation I had earlier this week that went something like this:

My Wife (the Nth level black belt Sudoku master): "What are you playing over there?"
Me: "Oh, I’m checking out Sudoku 2 HD Pro to writeup for KRAPPS this week.  It’s also"
My Wife (notice that she is completing my sentence here): "available for the iPhone and iPod Touch. I play it all the time, it’s my favorite Sudoku app."
Me: "Well, now, you can also play it on the iPad and it looks great"
My Wife: "Squeeeeeeee!"

See, there it is, product marketing gold.

Having played it a bunch this week, I can see why it’s her fave.  The app takes the familiar Sudoku game and gives it a friendly little spank in the form of a continuously decreasing multiplier that is used to generate a score.  And if you’re going to have a score, you might want to compare your high scores to those of Bob from accounting and Yuri the yak farmer from, um, wherever yaks are farmed, right?  You’ve got it, in the form of OpenFeint integration.

As I said before, the app looks great.  In the Pro version, there are three different board styles: Tiles, Classic and Glass and you can play in either landscape or portrait layout.  The free version doesn’t have the Glass style and can only be played in the portrait layout, but it’s otherwise the same game, giving you ample opportunity to try before you buy.

Lush ambient music and sound effects add to the enjoyment.

If you like Sudoku, I would definitely recommend giving this app a look, especially if you are playing on an iPad.  If you don’t currently like Sudoku games, the added elements of scoring and such should give you a reason to give this one a try.  It might just change your view of Sudoku forever.

Play A Fetus Inside The Uterus With Womb Wizards For iPhone [Creepy]

About a year ago, we featured two of the most bizarre apps we had seen to date … Carl The Dancing Peanut and Raoul The Dancing Pancake. Some really weird shit … and our logical conclusion was that the developers were on drugs.

Well never mind Carl and Raoul – they are so 2009. There’s a new King Of Crackheads in the App Store … Womb Wizards.

womb-wizards-1

Although you would think so … we swear … none of the following information about Womb Wizards is made up. This is one seriously messed up and disturbing app. Hell, it freaks us out just talking about it. Yes, we’re afraid of Womb Wizards … very afraid.

In Womb Wizards, you play the role of an unborn child … yes, a developing FETUS. Your mission is to protect your mother’s womb from attacking wizards. It’s kill or be killed action … all taking place inside a woman’s uterus (lovely).

womb-wizards-2F

womb-wizards-3

As you advance through the game, the fetus grows and you play different pregnancy terms by traveling deeper into the womb.

womb-wizards-4

The app’s description is equally bizarre as the gameplay. Basically some pizza delivery guy wakes up to find an app mysteriously installed on his iPhone. The app is called Womb Wizards and it was installed by … you guessed it … a wizard. The wizard told him to publish the game in the App Store as a free app. The developer concedes that he doesn’t know why the wizard wants people to play this game and he’s hoping something cataclysmic isn’t about to happen. You can read the entire drug-induced tale and download this frightening game via the App Store.

womb-wizards-5

Oh and on a final note … you gotta love the name of Womb Wizards’ developer. Just further proof this dude was high on crack when developing the game. Womb Wizard was developed and published by … High High … LMAO, fitting!

iPad Children’s Book “Farting Animals” Ensures Future Generation Of Fartaholics

fartaholic (~noun) : one who is addicted to farting, passing gas, cutting the cheese, breaking wind, fumigating the room, blasting the ass trumpet, etc.

—————————————————————————————————————————-

Love farts? Would you go so far as to say you’re a fartaholic? Then great news … a free children’s iPad application is now available which will educate the innocent young and make them appreciate the cry of an imprisoned turd …

farting-animals-ipad-1

Farting Animals Episode 1 [iTunes Free] is categorized as an Educational application and per its description, “is a series of interactive storybooks that keep the readers engaged with its characters through touch interaction … this innovative storybook maximizes the combined effects of gameplay and learning with touch features.”

farting-animals-ipad-2

Interactive storybooks – engaged readers – touch interaction … certainly sounds like a fantastic and effective educational experience parents should seek out immediately. And we’re delighted to see developer Papa’s Frog putting the iPad’s magical technology to life-changing use … teaching kids about farts. Yep … numbers, shapes, letters and everything else on Sesame Street is so overrated. Farts are imperative and should be included as part of a well-rounded children’s curriculum.

farting-animals-ipad-3  farting-animals-ipad-4

Dogs farting – bears shitting in the words … some serious educational benefits as described by the app (seriously?) …

Farting Animals provides the following educational benefits:

 

Adds an element of touch to visual and aural stimuli, eliciting action responses that enable the reader to more easily engage with the characters and better focus on the story.

 

Uses words that pique children’s attention, such as “fart” and “poop,” to help them learn in an entertaining way about naturally curious subjects such as body functions.

We wish Papa’s Frog well with future episodes of Farting Animals … hard not to love a developer whose one sole principle is, “to give pure inspiration and hope to the younger generation by creating stories that are warm and sincere, like a parent’s bedtime story; to touch their hearts and fill them with love” <- heavy stuff those fart, heavy stuff man!

 

Have Fun – Be A Turd – Play DoodleDumps For iPhone

Maybe it’s just us, but there’s something refreshing about iPhone games that incorporate turds. In the past we’ve featured PooPong (think Atari Pong with flying poop) … Bathroom Racer … and that’s about it. Our brief observation … the App Store needs more poop and less sex education. Thankfully the folks at Blast One hear us and created a new iPhone game which is hysterically entertaining … DoodleDumps [iTunes $0.99].

doodledumps-iphone-1

DoodleDumps-iPhone-11

Now if you’re thinking DoodleDumps is just another App Store embarrassment, nothing could be further from the truth. This doodle genre game provides hours of simple – but totally addictive – gameplay … not to mention top-notch programming, a killer original soundtrack (from Jazz / Alternative Rock musician Eve Wheeler) and ridiculously comical graphics. All this DoodleDump goodness comes at the bargain price of 99 cents.

409383_3

When you’ve finally had enough of being an Angry Bird or a Fruit Ninja … live a little – be a turd! DoodleDumps provides the unique opportunity of playing a piece of shit as it skids and slides down a roll of toilet paper. Your mission is to keep yourself (the poop) safe … jumping over paper gaps, dodging pesky holes and avoiding a messy “Death by Splatter” all over the bathroom floor (ouch!).

photo-111  DoodleDumps-iPhone-1111 

Along the way, you’ll be presented with a number of power ups to collect and be treated to some special game modes like the legendary “double rainbow” mode (love it when a game can cleverly incorporate an Internet meme) or the epic “angel wings mile high” mode.

DoodleDumps-iPhone-2  DoodleDumps-iPhone-3

The developers are fully committed to making DoodleDumps even more awesome as the next update will include Dueling Turds mode (slalom racing against AI players), three levels of difficulty and so much more. So it’s time to shut up Talking Carl and stop giving a rat’s ass Where’s Waldo … drop the 99 cents, download DoodleDumps and see how fun being a turd can be.

Racy Pictures Of Apple Fanboy John Gruber Surface (Disturbing)

For those of you not familiar with John Gruber, he’s sort of like Kim Kardashian … a superstar celebrity … but in the geek world (Gruber is also sexier than Kardashian). He currently writes the wildly popular Daring Fireball weblog where you can discover the latest rabidly-pro Apple talking points … similar to a fanatical political site. Gruber has been described as … “The Ultimate Apple Fanboy”, “King Of The Apple Geeks” and “Apple’s Greatest Evangelist”. Hard to argue those labels, especially after seeing Gruber’s choice of swimwear. LMAO, makes a lovely wallpaper for your iPhone, don’t you think? Sooo SEXY!!
