Make a Difference with Save the Park!

May 07, 2016 by macjeff

Save the Park is a fantastic running-character game that brings players for a challenging trip through some fun park terrains.

Free for downloading, Save the Park has been created in partnership with American Express and the National Park Foundation as part of this year’s celebration of the 2016 Centennial of the National Park Service.

Features:

Save the Park by Games For Change is yet another running-challenge app following the popular (and successful) model set up by other similar apps. Three different “park” scenes keep the challenges diverse.

Save the Park sets itself apart from other runner games by letting you control two characters simultaneously, adding to the challenge. Characters are all developed as different “junior rangers” at the parks complete with mini biographies regarding their personal interests.

The pace of this game is fast enough to be challenging and slow enough to be doable. Players who are familiar with the runner-game format should have no problem at all getting the hang of it.

Instead of just being an app that challenges your fast-thinking and finger-swiping abilities, Save the Park is notable for also being an app that raises awareness of the importance of the US national park system; every download of this game results in a donation towards preserving our national parks.

Save the Park does not require an Internet connection to play, making it a great app for traveling with kids.

Appearance and Layout:

Graphics aren’t really the strong point of this app. Characters are very cartoonish and backgrounds within levels are equally simple.

There is, however, a decent level of detail throughout the app that keeps things exciting. Even though the illustrations are simplistic they have a somewhat charming quality to them.

Easy to understand directions keep you informed throughout the game, and the layout makes Save the Park a perfectly playable app for all ages.

Value:

There are no in-app purchases to deal with making this a great game for parents to let their children play. The graphics aren’t anything spectacular, but they are on par with other similarly styled running challenge apps.

Even though Save the Park is a free app to download and play, the American Express Foundation has promised to donate $1 to the US National Park Foundation for every download of this app completed before the end of the year (up to $50,000). This makes your download of this fun app well worth the time.

Save the Park iPhone app requires iOS 7.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. A small expedited fee was paid by the developer to speed up the publication of this review.

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh Features Casino Info and Free Games to Play

May 07, 2016 by macjeff

If you’re an adult who is looking for a great night out, sometimes a casino is the perfect place to go. Offerings reach far beyond table games and slot machines; you can almost always catch a live show or go shopping as well.

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is a helpful and informative app that tells you all about their casino in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. You can check rewards balances, see upcoming events and much more!

Concept and Functionality:

Unlike most casino apps, Rivers Casino Pittsburgh by Rivers Casino Pittsburgh doesn’t exclusively feature games. Instead, the app is designed to serve as a directory for anyone who is interested in seeing what the casino offers.

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh does a great job of making sure the user isn’t confused by tricky menus. Everything is accessible from the main menu and all information is organized well.

But Rivers Casino Pittsburgh isn’t just a directory app. You can play casino games strictly for fun. This is great for anyone who wants to enjoy the casino experience without risking a dime.

Features:

Along with easy navigation, this app offers the option to enable location services and notifications so that you never miss an event or announcement.

There is, however, one drawback to the location services feature. Unless you manually disable the “always on” option, the app will possibly kill your iPhone battery because the GPS doesn’t shut off. This can be fixed by changing the settings to “while using the app” from “always on”.

Value:

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh can be downloaded from the App Store for free and is universally compatible with iPhone and iPad. Players don’t have to worry about mandatory in-app purchases or other paid upgrades in order to enjoy Rivers Casino Pittsburgh’s features.

Overall, Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is a great app for checking out the events at the physical casino and/or playing games for fun. Not only is the Rivers Casino Pittsburgh app built well, but it’s fun to use, too.

Rivers Casino Pittsburgh requires iOS 7.1 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. A small expedited fee was paid by the developer to speed up the publication of this review.
