Snow Brawlin' Xtreme

Snow Brawlin' Xtreme

Ghost Hand Games, LLC

Go Snow Brawlin’ with Risoo in this wacky arcade game. A gang of rogue rodents are trying to move in on Risoo’s turf, and the only way to settle this standoff is with a snowball fight!

Snow Brawlin’ Xtreme is for casual gamers that are looking for a quick fix in between daily activities.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

We really like how Snow Brawlin’ Xtreme combines tilt and tap mechanics. Tilt your iDevice to move Risoo into position and dodge the incoming snowballs. Tap on the feisty rodents in the distance to return fire. Your snowball supply is unlimited, so don’t stop chucking them. Try to avoid taking a direct hit for as long as possible to climb the leaderboards.

If you’re longing for winter and a good snowball fight, you’ll find it in Snow Brawlin’ Xtreme. The gameplay mechanics are so easy to pick up, you won’t want to put the game down.

The gameplay can be a little shallow, even with all of the crazy power-ups that drop in. If you’re looking for a game that you can sing hours upon hours into, this just isn’t it.

NoLocation allows you to quickly and easily remove EXIF data from your photos. The data can be removed from new photos taken within NoLocation, or you can import any photo from your library. Keep in mind that NoLocation doesn’t overwrite the original photo. It simply makes a copy of the photo without any of the EXIF data included.

If you don’t want to share your location, this is the app for you. It’s remarkably easy to use.

EXIF data consists of things like date, time, camera settings, and copyright information as well as location data. If you want to keep all of these things intact, skip this app.

Numberama 2

Numberama 2

Okroshka Lab

It’s a puzzling game of numbers.

Numberama 2 is ideal for those who enjoyed the original paper and pencil game.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

Your only goal is to remove all of the numbers from the screen. Numbers can be removed if they are matching pairs or if the pairs add up to 10. However, numbers can only be paired up if they are neighboring each other in the same row or column. Keep in mind that blank spaces are ignored. If you run out of moves, you can add more numbers to the board. The game includes two modes, 20 undo steps, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.

If you solving logic-based puzzles gets you going, Numberama 2 is your game. It’s classic puzzle action that can be played at your own pace.

The game can be a bit frustrating since it’s very difficult to actually win.
