Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Sun, July 8, 2012 is Juminja!



Application Description:

Peaceful lagoon... scary ninjas!

You'd Better Break the Chain

Do you love ninjas? Love to watch things predictably moving along a chain, but then moving faster and faster? Love to shoot colorful ninjas out of cannons at other same-colored ninjas so they explode and clear all of the invading ninjas off the map before they reach the end of the chain? You don't? That's weird. We all love these things, and think you should, too!

Pristine beach... more scary ninjas!

Round and Round They Go

In fact, Ximad--the Ninja and Panda experts--love it so much that they hired real-life Ninjas and Pandas as consultants to build Zuminja, an action-adventure puzzle game based on a (not very) true story filled with gorgeous graphics and sounds. Enjoy 20 unique levels of ninja action, and don't forget to alternate your tapping finger, as Ximad can't be held responsible for how quickly you'll become addicted.

Where They Stop, Only You Know

A chain of little ninjas slowly works its way along a winding path. Your job is to destroy the chain before it reaches the end of the path. To destroy the chain, shoot ninjas from a cannon, matching to create combinations of three or more of the same color. When you do, they disappear, you earn points, and the chain shortens. Simple? It starts out that way, but as you progress deeper into the game, you find far greater challenges.

Tue, July 10, 2012: Nanosaur 2

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Tue, July 10, 2012 is Nanosaur 2!



Application Description:

The 3D graphical worlds in Nanosaur 2 are simply stunning

Every once in a while, a mobile game comes around and knocks your socks off with its incredible graphics, intense action, and fascinating story. Nanosaur 2: Hatchling, a stunning 3D app for Android, is definitely one of those games.

Once Again, Dinosaurs Rule

The year is 4122 and human beings are history, wiped out by a terrible plague of their own making. An intelligent species of dinosaurs known as Nanosaurs now rule the Earth. But Nanosaur society is threatened by inbreeding, so they send one of their species back 65 million years to retrieve unhatched eggs. He returns with the eggs, which the Nanosaurs plan to use to increase genetic diversity and save their species from certain extinction.

Dinosaur Coup

But things don't quite go as planned. A rebel group of dinosaurs is bent on destroying Nanosaur society and seizing control of Earth for themselves. They steal most of the eggs and take them back to their own planets. The rebels' goal is to turn these hatchlings into warrior drones that will then be used in an epic battle for power.

But one egg is left behind. When this hatchling emerges, he is tasked with destroying the rebel bases and recovering the precious eggs for the good guys. Will he succeed? That's up to you.

Be prepared for firefights

Air Attack

It's a dangerous mission. As the hatchling, you must swoop through the air, dodging and shooting at enemy dinosaurs as you search for the eggs. Avoid hitting other dinosaurs, trees, or the ground, lest you die a horrible death. (You've got multiple lives and can collect more during the game.) The app's smooth tilt controls make flying easy and fun. The better flier you become, the easier it is to gather up the eggs and avoid your enemies.

Avoid the rebel dinos while gathering eggs and power-ups

Locked and Loaded

You'll have quite an arsenal to help you in your daunting quest. Sonic screams, blasters, fragment grenades, and heat-seeking missiles are just some of the weapons you can employ to eliminate the competition and clear the way for egg-gathering. They fire back, though, so be careful--they'll even jump up to bite you if you fly too low!

Your weapons aren't unlimited, nor are your other resources. While picking up the eggs, make sure to snag the many power-ups along the way, including more weapons, health points, fuel, and shields.

Beautiful Visuals

Written descriptions of this game's 3D graphics cannot nearly do them justice. (See the screenshots.) As you navigate through the planetary landscapes, you will actually see the trees and obstacles coming at you, enemy dinosaurs running and leaping, and bullets whizzing by. The luminous wormholes, which you must use to send eggs back to Earth and to advance through the levels, look genuinely otherworldly.

Combined with a compelling story and challenging gameplay, Nanosaur 2: Hatchling is a game you will play again and again. With three unique worlds to conquer, it won't be easy to overcome the odds and beat this game. Don't give up, hatchling--the very survival of your society and species hangs in the balance.

Note: Nanosaur 2 is a rich, graphics-intensive game requiring a large file download. Using a Wi-Fi connection is highly recommended.

Mon, July 16, 2012: Yukon Gold Solitaire

Today's free Amazon android app of the day for Mon, July 16, 2012 is Yukon Gold Solitaire!



Application Description:

Full-featured * Plays easily * Looks great * Tablet-ready

24 popular solitaire (patience) games and variations in a great-looking, easy-to-play package.

Solitaire remains one of the most popular card games for phones and tablets. While there are quite a few solitaire games available, some lack features and options, and others are difficult to actually play on a mobile device. Yukon Gold Solitaire is something better: simple but professional, beautiful and easy to play.

No ads * No special permissions * Can be installed on SD card

Games included:

Alaska * Double Alaska * Double Klondike: Draw 1 * Double Klondike: Draw 3 * Double Russian * Double Yukon * Forty Thieves * FreeCell * Golf * Klondike: Draw 1 * Klondike: Draw 3 * Klondike: Vegas Draw 1 * Klondike: Vegas Draw 3 * Putt Putt * Relaxed FreeCell * Russian * Scorpion * Scorpion II * Spider * Spider: Spades * Spider: Spades & Hearts * Tri-Peaks * Wasp * Yukon

Three scoring modes and a high score board are featured, as well as full undo and redo, hints (suggested moves), and more. Yukon Gold Solitaire was carefully crafted for easy play and a great look on any display size, from small phones to large tablets. Move cards by tapping or dragging. Choose from 5 card face designs and 24 card back designs. Select from a number of stylish backgrounds and background colors. Optimize the layout for either left- or right-handed play. Optional sound effects add to the enjoyment of game play.

If a tableau pile grows so deep that the cards extend off the bottom of the playing area, scroll the display to see them all, or in the settings screen, change the card spacing to fit more cards on the screen at once. In landscape the buttons are moved to the side of the display, and the Auto card spacing mode attempts to compensate for the differences in vertical space between portrait and landscape.

If you have a question or a problem, please contact us and let us know (support@brasskeysoftware.com). We'll help or fix the problem as soon as possible.
