Super Phantom Cat - Be a jumping bro. , WordHue , Alice for the iPad and more

Universal:

Mr. White is an everyday cat that dreams of being something more. You must collect life changing data modules on your way through a colorful universe in order to allow him to change his form. The game features whimsical character and level designs that make it a joy to run, jump, and pounce on your enemies. Keep an eye out for hidden paths along the way because the data modules won’t always be in plain sight.

WordHue utilizes classic word game mechanics and gives them a colorful twist. You’re presented with a five-by-five letter tile grid. The letter tiles start off as white, and every time you create a valid word they’ll change color. The first color change will match the color meter at the bottom. Try to create words using the matching tiles in order to earn more turns or time. Every time you use a letter tile, its value will increase. Do your best to avoid creating three letter words as they’ll block out the letter tiles for a short period of time. The game includes two modes, daily challenges, and unlockable color schemes.

After picking a photo from your library or a snapping a new one within the app, you're able to scale and position it on the wall. The moment your fingers leave the screen, your photo will be turned into graffiti. You can then adjust parameters, change filters, freely paint on the wall, and even tag your work. When everything looks in order, you can share your work of art via Facebook, Twitter, or email.

This isn’t some trimmed down version of Lewis Carroll’s masterpiece. It’s a complete and unabridged version of Alice in Wonderland featuring 250 pages of content. On those 250 pages you’ll find 20 breathtaking animated scenes, dozens of illustrations, and loads of interactive content like the ability to help the Caterpillar smoke his hookah pipe and throw darts at the Queen of Hearts.

Based on Alice Through the Looking Glass, Alice in America takes you on a tour of Manhattan with the Red Queen as your guide. As you dig into the 136 pages of content you’ll get to ride in a taxi with Tweedledee and Tweedledum, ride an elevator through the Empire State building, eat oysters with the Walrus and the Carpenter, and so much more. Of those 136 pages, 27 are filled with delightful interactive illustrations.

Scrivalry , Reminders Widget , Swysh - Gesture Based Music Controller and more

iPhone:

Wave your iDevice to the right to skip to the next song, wave to the left to go back, and wave downwards to pause and play. You’re able to adjust the sensitivity of the controls as well.

Wordid is simple, casual fun. In each game you’re provided with 45 seconds and a jumble of letters. You must drag and drop the letters into the spaces at the top in order to create valid four-letter words as quickly as possible. Each valid word will earn you points, stickers, and additional time on the clock. You’ll also be provided with a new set of letters. Keep the game going for as long as you can to climb the leaderboards.

Universal:

Each participating player receives eight random letters to be used on the game board. Swipe to pan across the nine square mile board, and pinch to zoom in on the board and place a word. You’ll want to move quickly since the gameplay takes place in real time and other players will be trying to use the same bonus tiles as you. Once you’ve created a valid word, tap to submit it and earn experience points. Scrivalry’s massive game board is persistent, which means every word placed will stay forever.

Reminders Widget enhances the way you use reminders. It taps into the native Reminders app in order to pull any entries you’ve already created. You can then access all due or overdue reminders from a convenient Today widget. The widget also allows you to create new reminders, sort reminders, scroll through groups, and complete reminders.

Bubo, Café Wifi, Odio and other apps to check out this weekend

September 10, 2016 by macjeff

It’s been a long week here at iDB, with Apple unveiling the long-awaited iPhone 7, and pre-orders going live on Friday. So now that it’s the weekend, we’re ready to kick back and relax, and what better way to do that than checking out some new apps and games?

Bubo

Bubo is a beautiful new time/task management app for iPhone. It allows you to input tasks, set a time limit, and track your progress. Over time the app will analyze your behavior, giving you helpful data like average time it takes to complete a task, and projects on how long a particular task will take you. Sure it’s not going to be for everyone, but I really like the minimal design language here, and think this could make for a good productivity/habit-former for those who want to commit to get things done. This app is available for $0.99.

Café Wifi

Whether you like to frequently work remotely from a cafe or coffee shop, or you’re on vacation and need to do so in a pinch, you’re going to want to check out Café Wifi. The app was designed for users to easily share and access information regarding various “workable spaces.” Are the drinks good? How fast is the Wi-Fi? What is the seating like? These are all questions Café Wifi aims to answer. It’s easy to navigate, works worldwide, and is only going to improve as more users sign up. This app is available for free.

Odio

Here is kind of a fun app to play around with this weekend. It’s called Odio, and it’s essentially like Vine for GIFs. You can record/import your favorite moments and turn them into GIFs. Then you can add color filters and audio, and share your creation on Odio or other social networks. Clips can be hash-tagged for easier discovery, and you can follow other users, as well as like and comment on their posts. I’m not necessarily sold on the platform side here, but it seems like a great app for quickly creating GIFs with audio. Odio is available for free.

Vertigo Racing

In Vertigo Racing, you put the pedal to the metal and hurtle your way through stunning, vertiginous landscapes in gorgeous 50’s-era automobiles! Travel as far and as fast as you can without falling to your death. There are a number of tracks to choose from, and challenges to complete, and of course you can customize your vehicle with a fancy paint job and under-the-hood improvements. This game is made by EA’s Chillingo team, which has produced a number of hits, and the graphics look beautiful. Vertigo Racing is available for free.

Rubek

Rubek is a gorgeous, minimalist color-based puzzle game. Roll a cube to pick up and match correct colors on the floor, as you make your way to reach the end point while figuring out a way to solve the puzzles. Play through 70+ handcrafted levels of mind bending difficulty and collect stars to compete on the global leaderboards. Rubek looks great on both iPhone and iPad, and there is even an accessibility feature with color blind options. This game is available for $1.99.
