Tue, April 17, 2012: Mathris - A Math Game

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Tue, April 17, 2012 is Mathris - A Math Game!



Application Description:

Combine arithmetic with Tetris

Full tutorial

Do Sums. Have Fun.

Mathris - A Math Game is a Tetris-style game for kids to learn numbers and build their basic math skills while still having a blast. Players must scramble to solve arithmetic problems while correctly stacking the blocks.

Mathematical Blocks

The numbers fall like Tetris bricks, but you can only remove the bricks by matching a question and an answer (4+2 with 6), a question with a question that has the same result (4+2 with 3+3), or two of the same numbers (5 with 5).

Math Tetris features three game modes (addition, subtraction, and multiplication) and four themes (winter, spring, summer, and autumn).

More Options

Mathris features high scores, and is integrated with OpenFeint so you can compete with players around the world. Toggle sound effects and background music. Mathris also comes with a tutorial and option to customize the number space (1 to 10, 1 to 20, and 1 to 50). Just how fast are your arithmetic skills?

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Fri, April 20, 2012 is DoubleTake!



Application Description:

Enjoy fun graphics in 4 game modes

DoubleTake is a chilled-out yet frantic pair-matching game based on the classic card game Memory. DoubleTake features shiny graphics, soothing sounds and music, and four different game modes for every skill level. Train your brain or just relax and enjoy the pretty colors.

Four Ways to Test Your Memory

The four game modes give you a wide variety of matching games. Sprint mode is a super-fast game; you get only one minute to match as many pairs as you can. Your score is based on speed. Timed mode is a little less frantic, but you still have a time limit. When you make matches, you restore your time to the time limit.

Survival mode is more relaxing as there is no time limit, but it's still a challenge. Your health meter depends on accuracy; you lose health points for mismatches, and gain health for fresh matches. Basic mode is the most relaxed mode. Simply match the entire board without penalties for mismatches. Try for the best time and the fewest number of moves.

Build combos for higher scores, and take advantage of the cool power-ups in Survival and Timed modes. DoubleTake improves your memory skills while relaxing your brain.

Sat, April 21, 2012: Word Drop +

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Sat, April 21, 2012 is Word Drop +!



Application Description:

What word would you spell?

Watch out for that blue bar!

Word Drop can satisfy your obsession with word games and fast-paced matching games in one entertaining app for your Android device or Kindle Fire.

Letter Pile-up!

As pieces fall from the top of your screen, match them properly so the pieces will vanish, earning you more points and longer gameplay. Failing to match pieces fast enough results in a pile-up. Once the pile-up reaches a certain point, your game is over.

Speedy Spelling Test

Spell words with letter pieces. As letters fall from the top of your screen, they collect at the bottom. Spell a word using any of the available letters, but be quick because more letters are always falling. You must prevent the letter pile-up from passing the blue bar.

Word Bonus

On occasion, you'll receive bonus pieces, like the Wild Card or the Bomb. Use the Wild Card as any letter you like. Tap the bomb to ignite it, and destroy all of the letters surrounding it. This helps to create more distance from the blue line if you're creeping a little too close for comfort.

Play in multiple game modes for a little variety: Panic Mode (Standard), Time Mode, and Puzzle Mode. Panic Mode is as described above. Puzzle Mode drops five new letters with each word you create, so try to think big. Time Mode gives you three minutes to spell as many words as you can with no blue bar.

Word Drop is a pleasant challenge with colorful graphics and nice sound effects. It can be enjoyed by both young children and adults alike.

Product Reviews

"Beyond speed, the brilliance of the new Bird of North America phone app is the audio. For most entries, from albatross to wren-tit, you can listen to the bird calls. In a nice touch, the audio includes hammering sounds for woodpeckers. Listening is much easier than figuring out what a print author means by a 'low chup,' and an excited 'zeeee chuppity chup.'" - Chicago Tribune

"Not only is the app chock full of reference material and birdwatching tips from the Audubon Society, but it's also a multimedia library with thousands of photos and bird calls." - Common Sense Media

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Sun, April 29, 2012 is Link!



Application Description:

Building a bridge, one block at a time

Spanning a Continent

Link is a modern take on a classic bridge-building game from the 1980s. Build bridges using wood and steel girders, and in more advanced levels, with stone blocks and rope cables. With 100 levels, Link will provide you with days of enjoyment and frustration.

As a 19th-century industrialist, you're building trains across the great West. The expansion of America depends on the delivery of coal, lumber, crates, animals, and of course passengers across a variety of valleys, ditches, waterways, and canyons.

Decisions, Decisions

Link uses principles of civil engineering to create stable structures. Creating bridges using randomly-connected materials will probably result in a lot of casualties. Instead, you'll need to think like a designer. Will a rectangular or triangular girder structure provide less strain on the girder joints? Does it make more sense to attach cables near the ends, or near the middle? If there is no place to attach cables, what type of structure can you build on which to attach cables?

Testing your trestles

Choose Wisely

You should also consider the physical properties of wood vs. steel. Steel is heavier and sturdier, while wood is lighter but probably not able to handle as much stress. Concrete is the heaviest and sturdiest of all construction elements, but you have a limited number of blocks to use and a limited number of places to put them. Cables provide some additional support from above, but they are also limited, and in some cases you will need to build a support structure for them.

In each level, you have a limited number of construction elements and structural anchors. On levels with concrete blocks, the tops of blocks also provide additional anchor points. Use these blocks carefully though! An improperly placed anchor can make all the difference between success and failure.

Tools of the Trade

Several user controls are available, including zoom in and zoom out, grid overlay toggle, show or hide bottom controls, reset the entire level, undo, and delete (the "X" icon). This should be fairly obvious based on the icon. At the far right, bottom corner is an up and down arrow to toggle the bottom control bar display.

Application Description:

The top timer bar shows plenty of time for a great run

Do the Alphabet Shuffle

How far can you run in Word Run Pro? That depends on how many words you can find from seven random letters. Form words of three letters or more. Don't repeat yourself--the more unique words you find, the more points you get. The longer the word you find, the more added time you get to find new ones. Once you run out of words, advance to the next level and get new letters.

Word Run Pro responds to every word you find

Getting Warmed Up

Try Practice mode--a timerless version--before you start running, just to get a feel for the game. When you're ready to run, find as many words as possible from a pile of seven random letters as you work against the clock. Get a "run" of words from the same set of letters to increase your word score. Select letters from the Rack in the middle of the screen to form a word of three or more letters.

If the word you create is listed in the dictionary, and it hasn't already been used on the level, then the word is accepted. The word will be added to an area at the bottom of the screen for your reference. If you can't find any more words from the rack, then advance to the next level and receive new letters. The score for the level's seven letters is reset when you advance to the next level, so it pays to find as many words as possible on any given level.

You'd Better Run...

There are a number of achievements to complete outside the normal rules of the game. These include having a particularly good run of words within a level, having consistently good runs over a number of levels, and finding a set number of words in each word length group. Also, there is a small bonus added to your time when you start a new game based on the number of achievements you have completed. The dictionary uses professional word game tournament word lists (like SOWPODS and TWL06) and both U.S. and U.K. spellings.

"For nostalgic comics fans or people that hung out in arcades during the early 90's, this game will be a worthwhile addition to their Android phone. Frankly, it's a perfect port of a game that was lauded as great." -- Android Police

"This is an extremely faithful port of the arcade game, save for a few nice updates such as a level select, "awards" to unlock, leader boards, OpenFeint integration, and 4-player multiplayer over wi-fi. Everything you loved about the classic, plus some nice, new additions to make it fun for a whole new generation of X-Men fans." -- Android Rundown
