Inotia 3 Children of Carnia :

inotia3_review

This is one of the best games for a mobile device I have ever played, hands down. It’s an engaging, gun, and addictive RPG that is completely well made in every aspect for play on an Android device. It was even selected as the runner up for the 2011 best app ever awards. Check this one out and I promise if you have any love for RPGs this one won’t disappoint.

Blood Brothers :

This RPG has been another amazing addition to the world of mobile device RPGs. Customizable parties to have your own edge, new skill sets to master, and huge maps and villages make this game one to remember. It may have vampires in it, but it doesn’t have any part in all of that vampire sterotype hype nonsense.

 Zenonia 5: Wheel of Destiny :

This game is offered in HD which is one of the first great aspects. Followed by that, the amazing story line is what really sucked me in. Most mobile games have a very simple tap this touch that to play, but the story in this game makes it so much better. With real combat, custom choices that change the gameplay, and global player vs player games, this game is incredibly hard to master and get sick of.

Ninja Action RPG: Ninja Royale :

When a game has over a million followers you know there has to be something great about it. The one really cool thing about this game, which I have always loved in RPGs is when you can collect and amass a cool arsenal of weapons as you play. That’s one of the most fun aspects of this game. The player vs player on this game is incredible too; one of the best on mobile gaming.

SoulCraft :

This game is heavily rooted in dungeon crawling. It made the list because it does that incredibly well. There’s tons of action and great fighting in this game which is enough to make it awesome to play. Multiplayer with people you know also makes any game that much better. With 5 different game modes, you’ll always have something new to find and complete, and new bosses to battle. This is another great, free RPG that you’ll need to check out.

Imagine a world where the messaging app on your phone actually worked in exactly the way you wanted it to and had features and customizable options in the way you had always wished it did. That was the world before the iPhone jailbreak and now it is a reality. Try Bite SMS for the best messaging experience on a jailbroken iPhone.

 Zephyr:

This allows the use of multitasking and the bar to be shown on the iPhone. This is kind of like the four finger swipe on newer apple Macbooks and iPad. This will make any Apple user feel like their phone just got completely decked out.

 f.lux:

I have had this program on my Macbook for years. I love it and it loves me right back. It allows the automatic sensors to detect light and adjust the screen brightness and output accordingly. This makes the whole interface so much less harsh and obnoxious and you don’t have to adjust the settings at all.

Octopus Keyboard:

I’m one of those people who likes to try out the newest and latest keyboards to optimize my touch screen experience. The new octopus keyboard being shown all over with incredible hype is from Blackberry 10. I love it and I think anyone who uses their keyboard a lot would too.

This is the all in one optimization and customization tool for your iPhone. You can adjust and tweak any aspect of the layout and color of your phone from status bars, icons, and texts.

Star Trek into Darkness App for iPhone & Android

I’m a Star Trek fan, no doubt about it. Although I have a biased penchant for the Deep Space Nine series, my love of Star Trek anything is excited by almost anything with the associated name. This leads me to be obligated to write something about the new app which coincides with the new movie Star Trek: Into Darkness. I’m going to see the movie for sure. The app is kind of odd though.

It describes itself as, “Join Starfleet for your chance to rise in the ranks, unlock exclusive content and win prizes. In reality all it is is another of those take a picture of something brand related and submit it for points towards stuff apps. I was honestly pretty disappointed. While I wanted it to be something more, it left me feeling empty inside; my Star Trek hole in my heart was left unfilled.

It’s basically a scavenger hunt for anything Star Trek related in modern advertising campaigns. There;s almost no incentive to complete anything and the app itself is really just screenshots of stuff relating to the new movie. There’s really almost no substance to it.

Another thing about this app which is worth mentioning is that it has been getting berating heavily on the iTunes store by users for privacy issues. Apparently it tracks your location at all times even without the app being used and actively running. This has lead a ton of potential users to do nothing more than delete the app and wash their hands of it.

While I appreciate the effort that went into making anything Star Trek related, this app really fell to the wayside. It was disappointing and given the privacy concerns I’d say skip it. I’ll watch the movie for sure, but the app I’ll beam into a subspace storage unit somewhere for the Romulans.

Cloud Music Player: AudioBox now Available on iPhone

The long awaited addition to the arsenal of music playing for your iPhone is now available on the iTunes App Store. AudioBox, the cloud supported music player, allows you to stream your music to anywhere.

Wherever this “cloud” is I want to look into the sky and thank it. For way too long I have been chained by the restrictions of my device’s memory, but with cloud based storage it takes all of those worries away completely. Now that it’s on iPhone with the infamous lack of SD storage capabilities I can make the most of the stock GBs.

No more storage worries and memory alerts now since you can have all of your music stored in a cloud and not in your actual device. Open up all of that memory for yourself and things you really need on your phone. While that is the main plus of this app, it doesn’t end there. This app was designed with the iPhone 5 in mind harboring retina ready display designs to maximize the incredible resolution potential locked inside.

This is a simple app. In it’s essence it’s really just another streaming music app. The difference here is that it’s a n undeniable quality that you expect from AudioBox and it’s all of your music. All of your songs, the ones you actually want to hear, and all of your playlists for driving, or commuting or tuning out your relatives. It’s everything you would want in a cloud based storage for your streaming music. Since I downloaded it I haven’t looked back. It’s a perfect app for iPhone and I don’t see it getting overtaken for some time.

Don’t be held back by your device’s storage or your streaming music apps terrible recommended playlists anymore. Get AudioBox and take all of the stress out of your day’s music playing activity.
