Tayasui Blocks allows you to craft just about anything you can imagine. The building process is as easy as tapping to place blocks and tapping some more to paint them. Common gestures allow you to pan around the 3-D environment and zoom in. Whatever you have built can be shared with the community or destroyed using a wide variety of zany weapons. You’re also able to explore the models that other members of the community have created.

If you love to create, download Tayasui Blocks today. It’s like your very own digital LEGO set.

Everything must be built brick by brick. You won’t find any pre-designed objects or themes.

Stickyboard turns your iPad into a giant whiteboard with a never-ending stack of sticky notes.

It’s ideal for pretty much anyone who needs to track thoughts or map ideas.

Why we picked this?

Sticky notes of different sizes and colors can be created by double-tapping on the whiteboard. They can also be moved and resized with a tap and drag of your finger. You're able to select and organize multiple sticky notes by first dragging your finger over them, and then using three-finger swipe gestures to choose a layout. The app also includes the ability to write on the whiteboard with different colored markers, undo and redo, a gallery view, and the ability to share your stickies as a PDF or text.

If you’ve always been a sticky note fanatic, this is your app. It’s infinitely flexible, so it can be used for a variety of applications.

The app doesn’t allow you to write freely or doodle directly on the sticky notes themselves. You can only type on them.

Why we picked this?

The beauty of Maze Zen is in its simplicity. Just tilt to roll the ball through circular mazes in order to reach the center. If you want, you can compete against the speed records, but it’s not a requirement. After completing each maze you’ll receive an inspirational quote. You’re able to match the color of the mazes to your mood with a two-finger pinch. The game is also a blast to play on Apple Watch.

If you’re looking for something to take your mind off of the long work week, this is it.

There’s not much to it. What you see is what you get.
