Creepy Caverns – Tilt Based

Help Dr. Archibald collect retirement money by tilting your device and collecting coins. This is a platformer / puzzle game that easier shown than described. Check out the video below and download it while it’s free if you like that type of game.

In my limited time playing, I found it pretty fun.  I’m not sure if this game will have lasting fun but for free, you can’t really complain.

Little Metal Ball is Free and Fun


Check out Little Metal Ball Today while it’s free. This is an accelerometer based game similar to labyrinth. I’ve been having fun playing this game and it’s worth owning if you like accelerometer type games.


This game plays great on the iPad too and looks surprisingly good upscaled to the bigger size.

Doodle Jump Update Retro Rocket

One of the best games on the App Store has been updated again. This time Doodle Jump sees the addition of a Retro Rocket to the oh so fun Space Theme.

According to the app description, “Doodle gets to fly in a super-cool retro-rocket this week in Doodle Jump’s incredibly popular space theme! Rockets are very rare, but once you get one, it will take you waaaaaaay up!!! And – since Doodle is a very curious little Doodler, you’ll see him sticking his nose out the window of the rocket. Hmmm, could Doodle the Doodler be somehow related to dogs?”

Doodle Jump – Be Warned: Insanely Addictive!: [ App Storeicon ] $.99 and sooo worth it. If you don’t have this amazing accelerometer-based jumping game get it now. Just click on the words App Storeicon and get it.
EDIT: I just got the rocket while playing and it took me up about 6,000 points. From around 5,500 up to 11,500. Im a fan of the Retro Rocket!

Red Bull Racing Challenge is Free Today

Red Bull Racing is an okay game from what I can tell in the limited time I’ve played it.  The price has dropped to free, down from the normal $2.99.

It looks pretty good and the tilt controls are alright.  It’s nothing super special but if you want a free racing game, I’d say pick it up.  What do you have to lose?

There is one thing that intrigues me about this game that I haven’t had a chance to test, and that’s the multiplayer feature. It’s looks as though you can play others over Bluetooth.  Download this game and try it with a friend.
