Why we picked this?

Baby lavas want nothing more than to live fast and die young. It’s up to you to help them do just that. Once a baby lava is released from the confines of the volcano, tap to bounce it off of the islands below. You can refuel the baby lava by colliding with things like palm trees, cars, cows, and more. Time your taps just right in order to ride up hills into the atmosphere and cover even more distance. Avoid the water at all costs.

If you’re a fan of high score games, this is a fun one to try out. The pixel art also gives it that old school feel.

It hasn’t been updated in a while.

Calendarium helps you live in the present and the past. The top portion of the screen displays today’s date, the week of the year, sunrise and sunset times, and the number of days that have passed and are left in the year. The bottom portion includes all of the historical events and major holidays that occurred on this very day. Tap and hold on an event or holiday to share it via Twitter, Facebook, Messages, or email.

If you’re a history buff, you’re going to love Calendarium. Each and everyday day there’s something new to learn about the history of the world.

You can’t filter the content, so if the idea of learning about every not-so-positive thing that has happened throughout human history bothers you, then skip this one.
