Today's Apps Gone Free: CreaVures, Daily Agenda, FreezePaint And More

July 9, 2012

Help Bitey, Pokey, Rolly, Zappy, and Flick restore light to the forest in Chillingo's entertaining puzzle platformer, CreaVures. We also have a productivity app that will help you stay on task, and a nifty photography app that allows you to freeze objects in your camera feed.

All app prices are subject to change at any time and without notice regardless of stated free duration. Price changes are solely under the control of the developers.

The app also includes the ability to add notes and create to-do lists, save your favorite locations, read reviews, get directions, and share your experiences via a variety of methods.

Colored balls bounce around the screen, and the numbers inside of them are constantly counting up to 10. If one reaches 10, you lose a life. To avoid losing a life, you can either pop the balls by tapping on them or cut them into two pieces by swiping. Cutting them will allow you to score points even quicker and complete objectives before time expires. The game includes 40 levels, mini-games, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.

The app also includes the ability to add a second time zone, create alerts, and view events up to two days out.
