    Fingle Review

    By

    Fingle is one of those weird apps that's not quite a game, but really more of an experiment or experience. It's like a non-competitive take on Twister. But with your hands. There's no real scoring system, and no winner. Maybe it's not a game per se, but when you're in it, there's no doubt that you're definitely "playing" it.

    Apple, Zynga, listed as top trademark bullies of the year

    By

    Trademarks are tricky beasts, especially during these litigious times. When you're naming your company, product, or service, you have to be very careful to avoid using a word that someone might drag you into court (or demand a fee) for. Companies that are particularly sue-happy when it comes to trademarks are known as "trademark bullies." But who's the worst bully around these days? Here's a hint: it's not Tim Langdell.

    PyramidValley Adventure Review

    By

    A while back, Kobojo released its own version of the virtual space-oriented business sim genre with PyramidVille on Facebook. Harkening back to the realm of ancient Egypt, the title was fairly standard, but now, with the help of BulkyPix, the studio is attempting to improve the game with the new iOS version PyramidVille Adventure. Hosting much of the standards of the genre, this new version does away with many of predecessor's social elements for a somewhat more in-depth management aspect, simple mini-games, and a more convenient platform.

    Otherworld: Spring of Shadows Review

    By

    Interactive entertainment can be many things: a distraction, an escape, a means of relaxation... On rare occasion however, it transcends these commonplace things and becomes something else—magic. When that happens, the experience is akin to getting sucked into a page-turning novel or watching spellbound as a great movie unfolds; you're completely immersed in the experience and are sad when it ends. At the risk of sounding gushy, I'll confidently assert that Otherworld: Spring of Shadows is one of those rare games.

    Bursting the Game Bubble Rumor

    By

    The fear of another technology bubble is washing over the gaming industry like a bad case of the flu, tainting important decisions about everything from investments to innovations. Many see the current wave of financial news from Facebook, Zynga and PopCap Games and draw comparisons with the great Internet boom and its subsequent collapse. Trepidation has nearly paralyzed some game studios as they worry about starting production on new titles. Analysts have also begun to question the valuations of recent investments in the gaming market, while some gaming companies feel pressured to sell before the bubble bursts. But will it?

    Derby Days Review

    By

    There are plenty of social games that ask you to take care of animals. Sometimes it's as part of a farm, sometimes they're simply pets for you to raise. But most of the time you're not really raising them for any particular reason; there's usually not much of an end goal in mind. And that's part of what makes Derby Days stand out. While much of the gameplay mechanics will be familiar, the process of turning a fledgling racehorse into a champion is very satisfying.

    Paper Monsters Review

    By

    I've been staring at my screen for the better part of an hour, trying to figure out how to start this review. You see, I've just finished playing Paper Monsters, and the game's left me literally speechless. It's just that good. It's like Super Mario Bros. and LittleBigPlanet decided to put aside their differences, have a beautiful baby, and let the little bundle of awesome grow up on my iPhone. Seriously.
