iPhone And iPad Apps Gone Free: Mathster, iDork, Bedtime Stories, And More

November 28, 2010
Today's AGF list includes a mathematical puzzle game, a platform game where the main character is an iDork, bedtime stories based on Japanese folk tales, and more. Disclaimer: All prices are subject to change at any time and without notice regardless of stated free duration. iPhone: Bedtime Stories Vol. 1 - Japanese Folk Tales ($2.99 -> Free): Features three different Japanese folk tales, each with their own music.

It has a three-and-a-half-star rating and a total of 825 ratings.

It has a three-star rating and a total of 152 ratings. iPad: Square9 ($.99 -> Free): A puzzle game where you are required to place falling bars with values on them to create squares.  Bars can only be placed between numbers that equal their total.  If you fail to place a bar before it reaches the bottom of the screen, you will lose a life.  Lose three and the game is over.  It features two modes of play, four difficulty levels, and local and online leaderboards. Square9 is available for free today only (11/28).  It has a three-star rating and a total of 39 ratings. Bedtime Stories Vol. 1 - Japanese Folk Tales - for iPad ($3.99 -> Free): Like the iPhone version above, only optimized for iPad. Bedtime Stories Vol. 1 for iPad is available for free today only (11/28).  It doesn't currently have an average rating, but since the iPhone version has been well received, we decided to include it anyway so iPad owners have the chance to give it a spin. Developers: If you are a developer who would like to get your app included in our “Apps Gone Free” daily lists, here’s our basic set of rules:
  • The app must be free for at least one whole day.
  • It must have at least a three-star average rating at the time it goes free.
  • The app must not have been free numerous times (3+) over the last six months.
To submit an app, simply send a request to tyler@appadvice.com with the subject “Apps Gone Free.” Please include the name of the app, a link to it in the App Store, when you intend to offer the app for free and anything else you would like to share. We will take it from there.
