The App Store takes delivery of hundreds of new apps per day. The overwhelming scene makes it possible to easily overlook an exciting game, valuable productivity suite, etc. However, we have a solution. Today’s Best Apps tackles this problem by providing you with a handpicked and tested list of apps that are truly worth your consideration each and everyday.
Remember: Even though in-app purchases typically require your iTunes Store password for processing, you can further prevent them and other unauthorized actions by enabling local restrictions using the passcode locked iOS parental controls
Echo: A Music Game by Tone no Tone ($0.99, 7.8 MB): Put on those headphones/earphones, pump up the volume, then immerse yourself in the extra stimulating challenge and pleasure of this unique physics and music-based puzzler. With a recording studio type of vibe, your task is to recreate an electronic soundtrack piece-by-piece and beat-by-beat via a tricky, though thankfully somewhat assistive mixing synthesizer. After playing the current clip, the console will show the necessary output as colored cells in the upper display and outline the relevant interaction space inside the configuration area below. To determine placement, watch the display as you drag the color-coded arrows from the very bottom section into the configuration area and position the arrow so that the associated cell or cells are highlighted in the proper color. Because the arrows control both speed and frequency of the tone, you may need to change the direction using a double-tap and swipe gesture. Last and certainly not least, anticipate the motion of every element because a collision, i.e., simultaneous crossing, is considered a failure. The app features vibrant 2-D graphics, 20 split songs spanning a wide range techno soundtrack, tri-star rating system, plus the ability to playback the completed tunes with the option to enable and disable parts.
999: The Novel by Aksys Games Localization, Inc. ($4.99, 541.8 MB): This interactive storybook will immerse you in a thrilling decision-based scenario reminiscent of the Saw movie franchise. Pulled into a twisted game by a menace dubbed Zero, nine people must come together to escape their temporarily floating prison within nine hours or less. First, you'll follow along as the tension builds and the rules are laid out, then, hopefully, help the seemingly unconnected group solve the number-based challenges and perhaps reach freedom once again. The game features anime-style 2-D and 3-D graphics, enhancing soundtrack, vulgar language and other mature content, as well as auto-saving and navigational flowchart to a multiple hour story.
