Fri, November 11, 2011: Let's Bowl Deluxe

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Fri, November 11, 2011 is Let's Bowl Deluxe!



Application Description:

Three strikes in a row!

Not enough time (or cash) to hit the lanes? No problem. With Let's Bowl Deluxe for Android, you can get a game or two of bowling in any time you want. This alley never closes.

Note: A Wi-Fi connection is highly recommended to download this application.

Cool Balls, Funky Alleys

Step right up to the line--no need to wait for a lane to open up. You'll start off with a single bowling alley and a basic ball, but the more you play, the more cool features you get. This Deluxe version of the game has three bowling alleys and six ball styles that you can unlock as you go.

Unlock some stylin' bowling balls

Fun Is a Flick Away

Just like in real bowling, with this game it's all in the wrist. Well, actually, in the finger. Line up your shot by dragging the ball to the left or right, then simply flick it forward. A slow flick will produce a granny-style roll, but a fast flick will make you look like a PBA player.

But--again, just as with the real thing--the harder you "throw" the ball, the more likely you are to produce a wild shot. No bumpers here: gutter balls can definitely happen! Remember that practice makes perfect.

What's the Score?

Don't worry about entering names or scores into your device; Let's Bowl Deluxe does all the work for you. You'll see your score change instantly at the top of the screen after every ball. Spares and strikes are calculated automatically. There's a high-score board, 18 achievements to collect on OpenFeint (First Strike, Spare Me, 200 the Hard Way, etc.), and links that allow you to brag about your game on Facebook and Twitter. (We won't tell anybody about that 60 you rolled earlier.)

The Sweet Sound of Pins Falling

The crisp graphics, detailed physics of the pins, and authentic sounds all make this the most realistic bowling app you'll find for your Android device. So what are you waiting for, Dude? Time to pile up some strikes and pick up those 7-10 splits with Let's Bowl Deluxe.

Sun, November 13, 2011: Shift Platformer Game

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Sun, November 13, 2011 is Shift Platformer Game!



Application Description:

Find keys to rotate impassible platforms

Shift is an adventure puzzle platformer with a literal twist in the gameplay mechanics! You are subject 32763, trapped in an experiment. Can you find your way out...and survive?

Unique Mechanics and Concept

Shift is based on the negative-space centric platform concept in a style elegant, yet minimalistic, and pulsating with spy music. Use the arrows to navigate your man of mystery along the levels and to jump. After a couple of warm-up levels, you'll need to have mastered the art of Shift.

Shifting flips you beneath the floor on which you are standing, and reverses both your body color and gravity. It's up to you to spot the paths that are available using this mechanism, and to figure out how to make it to the exit for each level. Hindering--or occasionally helping--your progress are impassable platforms, which can be rotated out of the way by collecting the proper key.

In comparison to Shift Lite, the Shift Platform Game has 40 additional levels and no in-app advertisements.

Tue, November 15, 2011: Eve of the Genesis

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Tue, November 15, 2011 is Eve of the Genesis!



Application Description:

Take down monsters with powerful spells.

A World on the Brink

Two thousand years ago, a faraway world was under the control of an empire of living machines. Humans toiled for their robotic masters for ages, until the day revolution finally came. The dread empire was driven into the Lands of Darkness, and humans could finally chart their own future.

The world has lived in peace since then, but there's danger afoot. Could the empire be stirring once more? It's up to a ragtag group of warriors to find out!

By Re-Quest

Eve of the Genesis is a classic Japanese-style role playing game in the tradition of the original Final Fantasy, with enhanced 8-bit style graphics that harken back to those classic games. Lead Effat and his friends across the world to stop the evil mechanical empire.

Effat is a monster hunter living in a small town with his best friend, the wealthy and tomboyish Harty. When they accidentally discover that attacks by powerful machines are on the rise all over the world, they set out to save humanity from a fresh wave of tyranny. On the way they meet Clia, a magic student, and Viper, an amnesiac soldier. Together, they'll save their species... or die trying.

Watch an exciting storyline unfold as you play

Hack and Slash (and Spell)

Battle hordes of evil monsters using both physical skills and magical spells. Customize your skills and spells with special gems that make them stronger, change their damage type, or even cause them to hit all enemies at once! Adjust your characters and their powers so they fight the way you want them to as you comb ancient ruins and explore darkened caves.

On the way, you'll find new weapons, armor, accessories, and stat-boosting sands to increase your abilities. Use spells for additional boosts against the array of particularly tough bosses that stand in your way. Conquer any foe you meet with the right strategy and a little luck.

Collector's Paradise

Eve of the Genesis is a completion lover's dream. The History screen records every item you gain and every monster you fight. You can also seek out the rare items known as "ooparts," which also give you skill changing gems. Try to fill in all the blanks in all your record books!

With a wide world to explore, two levels of difficulty for any level of RPG experience, and lots of monsters to defeat, Eve of the Genesis will keep you gaming for hours. But don't lose sight of your main goal, or the world will find itself once again enslaved to the machines...

Wed, November 16, 2011: Bejeweled 2

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Wed, November 16, 2011 is Bejeweled 2!



Application Description:

Ignite the screen with strategic combos.

Bejeweled dazzles with explosive gem matches.

Gem Matching Puzzle Fun

Bejeweled is back! The casual game that became a phenomenon a few years ago on the Web returns with this engaging sequel from the folks at PopCap Games. As you may know by now, Bejeweled is an immensely popular matching puzzle game with a great interface and addicting gameplay.

Bejeweled 2 is simple, relaxing, and fun: The object of the game is to line up at least three identical gems in a row. Swap adjacent gems to make matches. Tap on the gem you want to move and then tap again on the space where you want it to go. Every time you make a successful match, those jewels burst into showers of brilliant color. Match four or more jewels to create prized power gems, yielding higher scores and more dazzling cascades of light. Match five gems to create a Hyper cube--with startling, explosive results.

Having trouble spotting the next match? If necessary, you can get hints "on demand" to point you toward that elusive matching opportunity. (You can turn this feature on or off in the game's menu.)

A Mode for Every Mood

Bejeweled 2 features three modes of play: Classic, Action, and Endless. If you're a newbie, you might want to start off in the untimed Classic mode--your game only ends when you have no more possible moves. Looking for a challenge? Try racing against the clock in Action Mode. See how many points, jewels, cascades, combos, power gems, and Hyper cubes you can collect before your timer runs out. Or do you just feel like zoning out? Go with the Endless option, soaring to new gem-matching heights while racking up the highest possible scores.

Got Stats?

Bejeweled 2 tracks more numbers than a baseball box score. See all of your game statistics under the Scores button. You can also view your rank, best score, biggest cascade, biggest combo, how many power gems and Hyper cubes you've created, the number of gems you've collected, and even the total amount of time you've whiled away playing this engaging game.

Have It Your Way

Extensively customizable, the game's Menu button features various options for sound effects, music, hints, help, and more. Note that Bejeweled 2 supports multiple languages, including English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Russian.

Are you ready for more high-carat fun? Get ready to be dazzled by Bejeweled 2.

Thu, November 24, 2011: Bonsai Blast

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Thu, November 24, 2011 is Bonsai Blast!



Application Description:

Shoot and match colored marbles together in this zen-themed puzzler from Glu Games. Bonsai Blast features intuitive touchscreen controls that make it easy to pick up and begin play. Colorful, tranquil background environments draw you in as you try to clear the board of marbles before they reach the end of the path. With addictive puzzle gameplay in the tradition of such Match-3 games as Zuma and Puzz Loop, Bonsai Blast offers 90 levels of marble-blasting bliss.

Gameplay

Bonsai Blast is a Match-3 puzzle game where players try to match as many sets of three or more same-colored marbles together. A successful match clears the set from the board and activates any attached bonuses as well. New marbles are created at the edge of the screen, forming a long strand that slowly advances along a set path. You lose the game if the strand of marbles ever reaches the end of the path, marked by the yin-yang symbol.

Clear sets of marbles before they reach the end of the path by using the touchpad to shoot your own marbles into the advancing strands. Line up your shots precisely to match up three or more of the same color. Your marble shooter stores two different marbles at a time: tap the shooter to swap between these colors. Clear away all waves to advance to the next level, and continue advancing through all 90 levels to beat the game.

Adventure and Survival Modes

In Adventure Mode, players must clear all marbles from the board to advance to the next level. Progress is marked on an overland map that records your route from level to level. Embark on a zen-themed journey through cherry blossom gardens, grassy fields, and snowy mountains to master all 90 levels.

Survival Mode gives you the option to begin playing from any level you have already completed during Adventure Mode. In this mode, waves of marbles will continuously advance down the path until they reach the end. Challenge yourself to hold out as long as possible and set a new high score record.

Classic Gameplay Made New

Though the gameplay will be familiar to anyone who has played a Match-3 puzzle game before, Bonsai Blast features several new additions that add a fresh challenge to its classic style. Use chutes to guide marbles down winding paths, teleport shooter locations with a single touch, and rack up bonuses by using walls to ricochet your shots. With its intuitive touchscreen controls, shooting and matching marbles has never been more fun.

Elemental Mastery

Use the elements to your advantage by collecting these six power-ups:

Water: Make a splash with this power-up by popping several random marbles with each shotFire: Melt away entire waves of marbles by loading up your shooter with these fireballsEarth: Smash all marbles of the same color with this powerful seismic attackWind: Summon a swirling gust of wind and cherry blossom petals that pushes marbles backwardsLight: An explosion of light shatters marbles on impact--shake your mobile device to increase the blast radiusDark: This negative effect covers your shooter with a shroud of darkness--shake the device to clear it away

You'll start with the standard-issue ball and club but you can unlock more levels of each as you prove your prowess. Advanced golf balls include Slow Motion, Ghost, Mega Control, Speed, Anti Gravity Jump, and Instant Stopping Power. Advanced club abilities include Accuracy, Mega Power, Amplify, Out of Bounds Immunity, Opposite Day, and Stat Bonuses. Track your Pineapple Score, Ring Score, Target Score, and Best Time.

If you get really stuck, you can tap the restart button for a new game board.
