I got a couple of free apps for you to dig into this weekend! First is Light Writer, a light-art app that lets you choose a phrase or basic image and use the iPhone’s screen to flash the characters. When moved side-to-side, others will be able to see you message bright and clear!

I also found an app for your audiophiles as well. SoundPad! lets you record and replay any sounds you want. Create an electronica symphony or just grab some great Schwarzenegger quotes and express your creativity.

These apps are only free for the weekend, so make sure you download them ASAP! Sure, that’s only a savings of a couple bucks, but think of everything you can do with that extra cash! Get some value menu goodness, spread some karma to the musicians downtown, or tip your favorite barista. More likely you’ll just blow it on another tower defense though. Either way, enjoy the apps!

So it’s no surprise that I was eagerly awaiting the release of Ninjatown: Trees of Doom! for the iPhone.
At least I was looking forward to it, until I found out it wasn’t to be tower defense. How could I ever love anything more than the first game? So I passed on ToD and went looking for other games. A few days went by and I started seeing rave reviews, like this one from FingerGaming.com. I guess it was worth looking into after all.
Let me be the first to call myself an idiot. This game, while nothing like the original, is worth every penny! I’ve been draining my phone’s battery for the last four days doing nothing but striving for numerous Plus+ achievements (21 in all). So let’s get down to the finer points of the game. (more…)
