Boba Charades ($1.99 → Free, 4.6 MB): Grab some friends and have a blast acting out clues and trying to guess what the heck is going on in Boba Charades. It’s ideal for party settings.

Boba Charades is basically a twist on the classic game of charades. You must first split your group of players up into two teams and grab your iDevice. Then instead of only one person from each team acting out their clues, everyone but one member must join in on the fun. The person that was selected to sit out must do all of the guessing! Scoring can be done with up and down tilts of the iDevice, and you can skip questions with a swipe. The game includes 27 packs to choose from and more than 5,000 clues in total. Packs include topics like celebrities, movies, sports, phrases, and fun actions.

A bar across the top of the screen allows you to scrub the video, and buttons near the bottom allow you to move quickly through it or frame by frame. Photos grabbed from your videos can be edited with filters and text before being saved or shared.

Montezuma Puzzle 4 Premium ($0.99 → Free, 67.7 MB): It’s time once again to piece together the puzzles of Montezuma! It’s a fun distraction for those who enjoy Tangram-like puzzles.

Each of the 100 puzzles require you to drag and drop pieces from the lower half of the screen into the top in order to completely fill in the shape. Pieces can not be flipped or rotated, so you’ll have your work cut out for you. The game also includes an unlimited number of hints and undos, creating a rather relaxing environment. Although, if you do utilize a hint you won’t be able to earn a perfect rating.
