    The Pygmies’ world is coming to an end in the final update for Pocket God

    By

    Many religions argue that their God or gods have no beginning or end. On the App Store, however, it's common enough for deities to fade to black. For instance, Pocket God, one of the most consistently-updated games on iOS, will be receiving its final update this week. The Mayan apocalypse may be a myth, but for millions of tiny digital islanders, it's about to become distressingly real.

    Legend of Talisman Preview

    Though the title "Legend of Talisman" brings to mind a story about a boy named Jack searching for an ancient relic across to worlds with the aid of his werewolf pal, that's not what this puzzle game has to offer. Instead, it's a Match-3 game that's full of fun, adventure, and pirate booty. Not a bad substitute by any means.

    One Million Monkeys Review

    By

    The "Infinite Monkey Theorem" states that a million monkeys working at a million typewriters will, in time, replicate the complete works of William Shakespeare - but probably not before they jam up their keyboards with their own you-know-what. One Million Monkeys for iOS is governed by the aforementioned theorem. You probably won't be able to produce a coherent sentence, let alone the works of Shakespeare—but you'll definitely come up with some gut-splitting nonsense stories.

    The Grading Game Review

    By

    Few people can resist spewing a passionate opinion about the state of post-secondary education. On one hand, university students are suffering enormous debts and years-long workloads in order to procure degrees of negligible value. On the other hand, maybe it's not the worst idea to keep kids chained to a desk until they learn the difference between "a lot" and "alot." The Grading Game celebrates the wonderful and terrible (but mostly terrible) aspects of being a teaching assistant (TA) with a game that's unique, fun, and educational. That's right—it's possible to learn and have fun at the same time. Pinky swear.

    Jurassic Park Builder’s latest update goes under the sea

    By

    Some hundred million years ago, dinosaurs strutted across the baking Earth and declared, "Man, we are the kings of this joint." Then one of them would stray a little too close to the water's edge and get swallowed whole by the real kings of the prehistoric era: Plesiosauria. These leviathans swam the oceans from the early Jurassic period up through the end of the Cretaceous. If you want one of your own, you're going to need a time machine and a big, big tank—or you can play the latest update forJurassic Park Builder.

    Smurf Life Review

    By

    While "Smurf Life" sounds like an explicative you'd scream out your apartment window on a bad day, it's actually an iOS game starring Belgium's own Blue Man Group. Smurf Life is another game from Beeline Interactive, the studio behind the massively popular iOS sim Smurf Village, and it presents you with the chance to live the life of a Smurf. We can confirm this much from playing Smurf Life: Being a Smurf is tedious. No wonder the race hasn't banded together and swarmed Gargamel like a nest of bullet ants. Running away from the evil sorcerer is the only spark of excitement a Smurf can hope for in his life.

    Barn Yarn Preview

    By

    When you were a youngster and you chewed with your mouth open, or put your elbows on the table, or purposefully tossed your plate of food up onto the ceiling, your mother probably exclaimed, "What, were you raised in a barn?" The implication is that barns are filthy places where animals do their filthy animal things, but Barn Yarn, a simulation game for the PC, seeks to bring an end to the myth that humans can't live comfortably and neatly inside a barn.
