Sean Capelle
App reviewer, Apple geek, father of three, bass guitarist, wombat tamer: one of these things is made up, but the rest do a pretty good job of describing Sean.
During a traditional Breakout game you always worry about how to bounce the ball back, but not much consideration is put into the bricks. This game changes that by hiding gems and bonuses in them.
The English language is fun and colorful. Learning about it; not so much. But that's where this app comes in. It provides a contemporary framework to help English language learners.
Giant robots. If you don't treat them right, they may just blow a gasket and blow up a city. For instance, breaking their sweetheart into scrap metal is a great way to get on their bad side.
The trouble with some lander games is how they require a steep learning curve for the precise movements of your ship. This game, however, is much more forgiving with the controls and the amount of bumping around the ship can take.
It's amazing the lengths cats will go to get into trouble. They'll have to go even further if they're stuck in an "endless runner" position. That's just what happens to Flash, Dash, and Smash.
In this 8-bit arcade style game, the goal is to see how many cars you can knock off the road with a cat. Yes, you read that right. But while the logic takes a backseat in this game, the entertainment is behind the wheel (at least until it gets knocked over by a cat).
First appearing in 1938, Superman has certainly stretched across many different mediums. His newest incarnation is this iOS game. But is it worthy of the Man of Steel?
The photo album in iOS does a great job displaying your pictures in an easy-to-find manner, but CultStory's PhotoCal app takes that greatness a step forward by integrating them with a calendar display.
This official NFL app boils the game down to just the basics; you tossing the ball to a teammate in order to gain yards. But that doesn't mean the developers have skimped on the gameplay.
Writing is rewriting. Just ask any college composition professor. This app acknowledges this with a rating system to help you hone your post to perfection.
Instead of changing effects on your guitar's foot pedal, use your feet to page through tabs. This app's "Shake2Scroll" feature allows you to move through your customized tabs without using your hands.
The funny thing about asteroids is that they're always getting in your way and they won't blow up on their own. Luckily you have a turret gun on your ship to facilitate the blowing-up part.
Rhett Allain, famous for examining the physics behind Angry Birds, is at it again. This time he puts the yellow bird under the microscope. Unfortunately, the yellow bird is good at breaking glass.
The iPod app in iOS 4 and under seemed to be plagued with playlist difficulties. While iOS 5 presents a better music player, that's not to say there's no room for this handy app.
