Funny Call – iPhone App Review
Funny Call – iPhone App Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Funny Call (Free)
Version – 1.2
Review – “Prank calling taken to a whole new level!”
Whether you’re prank calling people, or you just want to freak out a friend apparently “there’s an app for that!” Funny Call is an app that allows you to alter the sound of your voice when you make a phone call from within the app. The app is free to try out and 
then has several different price points that you can buy more minutes at.
When you open the app, you’ll start out at the main screen. There are a variety of different “voices” that you can choose from. Once you’ve selected a voice, the app actually starts out in “preview” mode so you can hear what it sounds like on your own voice! The app also tells you that you need to use headphones to get the best results.
Once you’ve got your voice ready and you’re ready to make a call just touch the “Place a Call” button at the bottom of the screen. When you do you’ll see 
a dialer on the screen. In the upper right corner of the screen is a “Contacts” button that will allow you to dial anyone from your contacts list.
I found that the phone call’s from this app took a little bit longer than a typical call to connect. The calls were definitely high quality though, and there were no noticeable glitches in the audio once I was connected. At any time you can go back to the voice
select screen by touching the “Effects” button in the lower right corner of the screen!
The variety of voices in this app is also a good selling point. There are a ton of different voices from “Creepy,” and “Low” to voices like “Chipmunk,” and “Cyborgs”. My favorite voice was probably the “Creepy” voice, but there are several other good ones to choose from.
While I would recommend this app to anyone just to try out, it can get pricey very quickly if you choose to buy more minutes and continue to use it. Currently minutes are selling for $0.99 for 3, 4.99 for 30 minutes and $9.99 for 60 minutes! With that said, the app is free to try, and the true prankster within may just find that it’s worth it in the long run!

Touch Chaos – iPhone App Review
Touch Chaos – iPhone App Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Touch Chaos (0.99)
Version – 1.2
Review – “Find out just how fast your fingers can be!”
If you’re looking for a good way to get used to touching exactly
where you want to on your iPhone you may want to check out Touch Chaos. The basic idea is that you see randomly colored balls flying around the screen, and you have have to touch certain colors as quickly as possible. It may sound simple, but as you get further in, and the balls get more active it gets pretty crazy!
The main menu when you open up Touch Chaos is really simple. There are three buttons: Play, Scores, and Tutorial. The tutorial is just a text-based 
explanation of how to play the game. To be honest though most people wouldn’t even need it because the game itself is extremely simple.
Once you’re ready to get started just touch the “Play” button. You’ll be taken to a blank screen with 3 or 4 balls on it to start with. Around the edge of this screen there will be a border that is the color of one or more of the balls on the screen. Your objective is to touch all of the balls that are the same color as the border. Be careful though because the border does change quite frequently!
For every ball that you touch correctly you get points. If you touch a ball that is the wrong color it will turn black and start counting down from 5. If you do not touch that ball within 5 seconds then it will explode and you lose. You will also randomly see black balls like this fly in from the edge of the scree and you’ll need to make sure that they don’t explode either!
At the very beginning there are not very many balls and they all move pretty slowly, but that changes 
very quickly! In the upper left corner of the screen you’ll see a number that represents how many points you’ve accumulated in your current game, and in the upper right corner you’ll see what level you’re currently on.
When you finish a game you’ll see a summary of your performance. It shows you your score, level, how many 
balls you touched, how many times you missed and your Accuracy! From this screen you can choose to play again or go back to the menu.
One thing that I would really like to see added to this game is some kind of global high-scores feature. While it is definitely fun to compete against yourself and to see how high you can score, it’s hard to beat human competition! With that said, the high score feature is pretty simple and it keeps track of your scores quite well!
Overall this game is just a lot of fun, and best of all it’s the kind of game that you can really pick up and play for just a few minutes! Whether you’re looking for a quick game to pass some time, or you just want to work on your touch accuracy, I’d encourage you to give Touch Chaos a look. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised!

Tetrapped – iPhone App Review
Tetrapped – iPhone App Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Tetrapped ($0.99)
Version – 1.0.1
Review – “Familiar shapes in a new type of puzzle game!”
Tetrapped is a puzzle game that is designed to really make you think. There are no timers or score, it’s just how many moves will it take you to solve the puzzle! The basic idea is that you are given various shaped pieces inside a box and you have to move them 
around each other to get a certain piece in a certain place. While it may sound simple, it can be extremely confusing!
The man menu screen is simple, and yet creative. The main menu is made up of 4 blocks of various shapes that make up your menu options. To get started just touch the “Play” button at the top and you’ll be taken to a tutorial the first time that you do so. Once you finish the tutorial you’ll be taken to the first level. The game defaults to a 6×6 board the first time that you play but there are two other sizes: 7×7 and 8×8 that make it more difficult!
Every time you start a new level you’ll see the “target” block start out where it goes and then move somewhere else. Once that block is in place it is surrounded by some other
blocks of random shapes. At the top of the screen you’ll see a box that shows how many moves you’ve made and your best score on that level if you’ve already completed it.
To play the game all you have to do is grab the block you want to move and drag it where you want it. You can only move blocks in one direction in 1 “move,” but they can be moved in any direction. The levels are all designed to make you think, and some of them are actually very easy if you think a little outside of the box.
There are three buttons at the bottom of the screen that will take you back to the home screen, allow you to select a new level, or restart the current level you’re working on. Whether you bring up the level select from in-game or through the option at the main menu, you’ll be given a list of the different board sizes to choose from first, and then you’ll be taken to the list of levels for the on you choose.
There are a few basic options that you can set under the “settings” button from the main menu of this 
game. They include the ability to turn certain sound effects on/off, change the color scheme and reset your stats. There is also an option to turn “Auto Advance” on/off. This will send you straight to the next level when you finish when it’s on, or just stay at the finished screen till you do something if it’s off.
The basic concept of the game feels somehow familiar, but at the same time new. One thing that seems to be
missing is a “competition” factor. It would be cool to be able to see the minimum number of moves that are required to solve a particular puzzle. This would give you a number to shoot for and would make the amount of moves that you solve a puzzle in mean a little more.
While I have played a couple of other games that use a concept similar to this game, the “Tetris” shapes really add a new twist that I had not seen before. There is plenty of challenge in this game and it has hundreds of levels that will test your patience for hours on end! The game is currently available for $0.99 and I would definitely recommend it if you need something to pass some time, or if you just enjoy games that make you think.

Rush! Fire Attack! – iPhone App Review
Arkinvade – iPhone App Review
Arkinvade – iPhone App Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Arkinvade ($0.99)
Version – 1.02
Review – “Creative twist on Brick-breakers”
When I got my first iPhone, one of the first games that I looked
for was a “block-breaker” game. Since that time I have seen a lot of these games. While most of them are fun, after a while they all feel kind of the same. While at first I wasn’t sure if I liked it, Arkinvade definitely has a different feel to it. From the way the ball reflects off the paddle down to the large 
variety of power-ups and creatures attacking, the game manages to stay interesting.
The first time you start up Arkinvade you’ll want to link it to your OpenFeint profile if you have one. This will allow you to compare your scores with friends and people all around the world. There are also several achievements that you can work to get and show off as well.
The main menu was a little bit confusing at first, there is a play button in the center of the screen with the OpenFeint logo just below it. At the top of the screen is where it gets a little confusing. There are 6 little buttons that were a little bit hard to see at first. There’s not much description on them, but touching them will bring up various menu 
options that cover everything from the control scheme, to the sound effects and and options to restore a game that you have previously quit out of.
Once you’re ready to get started just touch the play button and you’ll be taken to the main game screen. The default control scheme is to use the accelerometer to move your paddle, and all 3 controls schemes have little buttons in the lower right and left corners to make the ball start moving. The other two control schemes either give you 2 directional buttons or allow you to control your paddle by touching and dragging it.
The object of the game is, as expected, to destroy all of the blocks on the screen. As you play the game you’ll find that some blocks are destroyed in one hit, while others may take several. Throughout the game you’ll also find large green blocks that release bad guys when they are destroyed. The bad guys fire bullets that freeze your paddle for a short time and come after you just like the bad guys in Space Invaders.
One thing that I noticed as I was playing this game is that the physics seemed a little different than you would expect in most of these games. If the ball is already moving from left to right pretty fast and you 
bump it with the left side of your paddle, the momentum that the ball has effects it a lot more than in most games that I’ve played. This makes the game interesting and adds a little more challenge to it as well.
The best thing about this game though is the variety that has been added to the gameplay. There are tons of different power-ups that do all kinds of things from making your paddle bigger, giving you more than one ball to destroy blocks with, set your ball on fire and make it literally cut right through all of the blocks, and even give your paddle firepower temporarily. Beware though because not all of the icons you see will help you. There are a few that will make things more difficult and/or even kill your current life.
Overall, I think that this game has the potential to be a real top-seller if just a few small issues are addressed in future updates. The first is that the game really needs a screen that shows
you all of the icons that you can collect and tells you what they do. It’s a little bit frustrating to grab an icon that you’ve never seen before and have it kill you.
The second thing is that the game needs better support for continuing your game. It took me a while to even figure out that it was possible. This could be easily remedied by either asking the user if they want to continue their previously exited game, or by adding quick-launch multitasking that brings up the app where you left off. Although just changing the menu a little bit and making it more obvious what options you do have would work just fine as well.
With that said, the game is a lot of fun once you get everything figured out, and it is currently available in the iTunes App Store for just $0.99. If you’re a fan of brick-breaking games, this is one of the most engaging games I’ve played of that type. If you’re still reading this I’d encourage you to click the link below and check it out in the App Store today!

Miriel the Magical Merchant HD Review
Miriel the Magical Merchant HD Review is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Developer: 10 Tons
Price: $4.99
Version Reviewed: 1.0
Price: $4.99
Version Reviewed: 1.0
iPad Integration Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
User Interface Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
Re-use / Replay Value Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
Overall Rating: 4.33 out of 5 stars
A sign of a good Game App is one that prevents you from writing a review about it, as you’re too busy playing it to get around to write it up. Miriel the Magical Merchant HD is just such an App. For fans of Time Management Games (like Diner Dash or Cake Mania), this is a goldmine. While obviously people who are not a fan of this style of gameplay will automatically steer clear, finding a decent Time Management game can be difficult sometimes. Developers really need to know the balance of the game, and lucky for us, 10 Tons does a great job with Miriel.
The game starts out with a sort of Story Mode, about how Miriel’s father mysteriously left, and she’s working at the store to save up to go to Magic School (or something along those lines). The object of the game is to serve your customers in a timely manner. This begins quite simply as you only have a few items for sale that can be requested. The games difficultly level slowly increases with ‘baked items’ (where you have to combine two or more ingredients in the oven) that take 2x or even 3x the amount of time to prepare. Your goal is to serve as many customers as you can, as quickly as you can, to reach your daily (or Master) goal for money each day.
Nearly every new day offers a unique challenge or reward. Sometimes you’ll get a new item for sale, or sometimes you’ll get a new customer type. At the end of each week you move on to another town and get the chance to upgrade your equipment by playing a matching mini-game. A nice feature of this App is that you can go and play the mini-game on your own at any point if you want to from the main menu. There are fun little features like The Haste Machine (which speeds up your cooking, and movements) which you can use by collecting gold wings, by serving customers quickly.
As you progress, the items get more and more difficult, and you get more and more items. While you frantically run around stocking, baking and serving, you’ll have a blast. The only feature I would add is the ability to quit or restart mid-level (as sometimes you simply get too far behind) and the ability to re-play a level of your choice.
As addicted as I was to Cake Mania, I think that Miriel has taken the cake (no pun intended) as my new favorite game of this style. The art work is stunning, and playing on my iPad is a breeze compared to PC or DS gameplay. This game is a bargain at this price point, and I highly, highly recommend it.
