As the ultimate warrior, it’s your job to eliminate the evil creatures that have infested the catacombs beneath the kingdom. Grab your trusty sword and run, jump, and slash your way through pixelated dungeons using on-screen controls. Every enemy you take down will earn you experience points, which can be used to upgrade your character. You’ll also want to look for secret openings and collect loot to unlock new weapons and accessories. The game includes five worlds, boss battles, iCloud support, and achievements via Game Center.

Tap and drag your finger across the screen to select a column to drop your circle into. Leave your finger on the screen to see a preview of what will happen when you release. When a circle lands, it will fire lasers and shrink the circles below it and on each side of it. Large circles will shrink one size, and the smallest circles will disappear, possibly creating a massive chain reaction.  Keep dropping circles until you can’t drop anymore. The game features four modes, five game types, and leaderboards via Game Center.

It features a built-in web browser that allows you to hunt down content, or you can bring in your own via Instapaper, Readability, or Pocket.

The app includes the ability to change the text size, a night mode, stat tracking, and the ability to share content via Twitter, Facebook, or email.

It includes four different scenes: room, kitchen, playground, and nature. Your toddler can explore each scene and tap on objects to hear their names pronounced. Once they have the objects down, they can test their knowledge in the play mode. The app also includes scenes to color in, the ability to record your own voiceovers, and a scene they can decorate.
