iPhone And iPad Apps Gone Free: Hide My Message, Sole, Finger Vs. Finger, And More
May 19, 2010
Once again, we have a list of mostly iPhone games that have gone free, but we were able to discover a secret message sending app that is optimized for both the iPhone and iPad.
Finger Vs. Finger ($.99 -> Free): A turn-based game with the goal of pushing all of your enemies off of the map before they do the same to you. Each game begins with your pieces and the enemy's pieces on opposite sides of the board. You take turns firing pieces at each other in hopes of knocking the opponent's off of the board with a nicely timed shot. Objects such as walls, warps, and bumpers will help and hinder you in your quest. The game features three modes of play including local and online multiplayer, four difficulty levels, and 32 different stages. Finger Vs. Finger is available for free for a limited time. Sole ($1.99 -> Free): A puzzle game where you must slide marbles in order to remove them from the board. The game requires you to slide any one of the marbles on the board at other marbles in order to make them touch, which removes one from the board. The only way you can move a marble is if it will touch another marble by sliding in one of the four directions. If you can't find any moves and there is still more than one marble left, you will have to start over. The game features an unlimited number of randomly generated levels, online leaderboards, and fully licensed classical music. Sole is available for free for a limited time. Friendsheep ($.99 -> Free): A multiplayer game that will have you frantically herding sheep. Two players compete head-to-head on the same device in a variety of sheep collecting games. Each round you will be given a different task, such as collecting the most sheep or collecting sheep of s certain kind, before the other player is able to. A four-player bonus mode is also unlockable, which makes the game even more hectic. The game features adorable hand-drawn graphics, simple but entertaining gameplay, and a variety of mini-games. Friendsheep is available for free for an undisclosed amount of time. Windows Washer ($.99 -> Free): A game that will have you cleaning windows to no end. In the game you are a window washer who must clean all of the windows on a skyscraper. Tapping cleans the window while tapping and dragging moves your character to another window. It sounds simple but creatures and other obstacles will do their best to knock you off of your perch, which will end the game. The game features simple pick-up-and-play mechanics, an endless number of levels, and OpenFeint integration. Windows Washer is available for free today only (5/19). Universal: Hide My Message ($4.99 -> Free): Gives you the ability to send secret messages to anyone, anywhere. The app allows you to type up secret messages on your iPhone or iPad and send them to anyone to be decoded as long as they have the password. Your recipient doesn't necessarily need to have the app either, as the developer provides a website for decoding as well. You are able to send encoded messages via email, Facebook, Twitter, and SMS. Hide My Message is available for free today only (5/19). As an added bonus, we recommend checking out the newly launched and absolutely free All-in-1 Games by PlayMesh. It allows you to play eight different classic board games online against a community of over 2 million players. Among the many features is the ability to chat, add friends, earn medals, and move up the online rankings.
