    Skee-Ball Arcade Review

    By

    The death of arcades threw up a cloud of fallout that subsequently killed almost everything even associated with the neon-lit caves of old. Arcade cabinets weren't the only machines that dissolved into irrelevance: classics like Whack-a-Mole and skee-ball faded away with them. There are still a few ways to get your skee ball fix, however. You can hang around a Chuck E Cheese and push ahead of the kids lined up in front of you (not recommended), or you can download Skee-Ball Arcade by Scopely.Other skee ball apps have come and gone from the App Store, but Skee-Ball Arcade is the first officially licensed game. It honors its license, too; this is the most authentic skee ball experience you're going to find outside of some bowling alley's decrepit video game corner.Playing skee-ball is a bit like playing on a small, elevated bowling course (if you're Canadian, picture five-pin bowling conducted on a miniaturized lane full of speed bumps and holes). You're allotted a certain number of small balls, which you roll up and over a series of rubber barriers. Behind each barrier is a hole that corresponds to a score. If your ball goes into a hole, you're rewarded with the marked number of points. Generally, the smaller and further away a barrier / hole combo is, the more points it's worth. When your game is over, you receive a string of tickets you can exchange at a counter for a comb or mustache wax.

    The Shivah: Kosher Edition Review

    By

    If my spirituality could be depicted as an animal, it'd be a mutt-dog with two crooked legs. My mother is an Orthodox Jewish convert from Irish Roman Catholicism. I was raised as (and identify as) a Jew, but I still had enough exposure to Christianity to notice some key differences between the faiths. Notably, Judaism doesn't adhere to a single interpretation of the Bible, and Rabbis are the kings of question-asking as a consequence. It's this small, but important distinction that drives the story - and indeed, even the gameplay - of The Shivah: Kosher Edition.The Shivah: Kosher Edition is a mobile port/remake of The Shivah, a 2006 point-and-click adventure title for PC. The game stars Russell Stone, a troubled rabbi who heads a failing congregation based in New York City. Suddenly, a windfall: the rebbe receives word he's been willed enough money to pay off his debts and keep his synagogue open. However, his benefactor is Jack, a former congregation member who departed angrily after Stone refused to bless the marriage between Jack and his non-Jewish wife."As Stone tries to get to the bottom of why he was bequeathed the money, he quickly learns that Jack was mixed up in some pretty bad business. He begins piecing things together, and comes across more than a couple of moral dilemmas on his spiritual journey.The Shivah: Kosher Edition purposefully looks and plays a good deal like Sierra's stable of classic adventure titles, especially the Monkey Island series. Rabbi Stone needs to explore his surroundings thoroughly in order to find clues, which includes interacting with people (and making sure you say just the right thing), taking note of obituaries and photos, and even hacking into fellow Jews' computers. Eh, it's just a schmear of privacy invasion.

    Epic Empire: A Hero’s Quest Review

    By

    As the adage says, "Rome wasn't built in a day." Not surprising. Every empire is slow to build up the momentum necessary to become a world-dominating force. Unfortunately, Epic Empire: A Hero's Quest won't hold up your plans for conquest with strategy or army-building. Instead, the game's energy system keeps you waiting for ages between fights. Rome wasn't built in a day, but neither was it built with in-app purchases.You begin Epic Empire as a wanderer driven out of his homeland by bandits. Tired of running, you resolve to turn around, stand your ground, and give those bandits what for. Gradually, and with the help of friends, you drive pack after pack of outlaws away from their ill-gotten turf. In the place of the wilderness and lawlessness, you place mines, businesses, and other civilized means of generating revenue."Epic Empire is essentially a battle / building game. The world is shadowed by bandits and evil-doers, and you need to reclaim the darkness. First and foremost, you must fight. To instigate battle, you enter a hostile patch of land and engage the bad guys within. Victory is simply a matter of tapping on the enemy and hoping you deliver the fatal blow before they hack your life bar into nothingness. When everyone's been driven out, the land is yours for the taking.Winning fights in Epic Empire has little to do with skill. Numbers are key. When you go up against bandits, victory is only possible if your armor and weapons have been upgraded sufficiently. Upgrading is done by winning loot from fights and then "fusing" the pieces with your equipment. You can also evolve equipment if you find the sufficient ingredients and have coins to spare.

    MoviePop Review

    By

    Half the fun of seeing a movie is recalling the film's best moments for years to come. What's better than sitting with a fellow enthusiast over some beers and jabbing one another in the shoulder while hooting, "Ooh! Ooh! Do you remember that one part when--"MoviePop for mobile platforms is essentially a digitized version of the excited reminiscing you do with your friends over all things movie-related. Except you play against strangers or Facebook friends, and there are visual aids galore, which renders it difficult to give a wrong answer and make yourself look like a jackass in front of your buddies. As a whole experience, MoviePop is a decent way to waste a couple of hours. Before long, however, questions start repeating, making MoviePop an easy game to ace even if you're not big into cinema.You begin a round of MoviePop by selecting a genre. There are plenty to choose from, including Action-Adventure, Family, Animation, Sci-Fi, Horror, and lots more. Granted, some categories need to be unlocked, and you're forced to choose one category from a list of three, unless you spend premium currency (popcorn!) to re-shuffle the list. But there's initially enough accessible content to keep you busy for a few rounds.
