This is a fun, creative and interesting game that will be interesting for both kids and their parents. The idea of the game is to help a mildly overweight Spelling Bee to defend himself with word-powered attacks and abilities. Making the longest words becomes an entertaining process as you make it through increasingly challenging levels and get more overall points.

What’s great is that you can compete against other players on online leaderboards. You can also adjust difficulty level if the games appears to be too easy.

Playing this game with kids makes it even more interesting because they always ask you to explain the meaning of some words and you can try making over 200,000 words! Spell a word to hit your opponent back, and don’t forget to control your healtbars!

The game is very polished, bug-free and has great touch controls and is good for many hours of entertainment.

Before we proceed, there is a chance for you to recycle your old mobile phone and earn some extra cash and help the environment!

People have been working on the mobile phone for about as long as we have had a telephone system.  Your definition of what a mobile phone is will help you decide the “whens” for mobile phones.  Two-way radio mobile “phones” were used in automobiles in the late 1920s.  Technically, these were not phones.  The driver could not dial different numbers but only reach a central dispatch.

In the 1940s, conceptualization for mobile phones began but support for the technology was not around yet.  A wireless telephone service was available in the larger cities in the US in the 1950s.  This service was expensive and extremely limited.

Motorola started working on a portable cellular phone in 1973.  They first began marketing this huge thing in 1983.  Richard Gere uses something that looks a lot like the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X in the movie “Pretty Woman.” During the movie, he is constantly on the phone doing business and making deals in his fancy top-level hotel suite.  However, since he’s inside and not driving around, this might have just been an early cordless phone.  The Motorola DynaTAC cost $4000 and weighed just about two pounds.

Nokia had their version of a mobile phone in 1982.  For people who had seen combat, this thing looked like two-way radio communications gear from the Vietnam War or something.  For everybody else, it looked like a little boom box with a phone stuck on top.  These phones would not fit in a pocket nor would they be practical to carry around on one’s shoulder.  Many of these type mobile phones found themselves as permanent features of new car models.  The weight did not matter as only the handset was lifted up.  The advances in security and convenience made these phones sell like hotcakes.

Nowadays residents of large cities can hardly imagine their life without an i-phone. These days it is widely used for mail checking, for communication by ICQ, for watching films and even for poker playing.

It is true, poker is one of the most popular card games nowadays. It is a unique opportunity to plunge into the world of adventure and excitement. The game is an breathtaking duel against other players and an excellent opportunity to earn money using your mother wit! Your task in the game is simple – you should stake on, get your cards and decide whether to change any cards on the other ones.

Of course for each i-phone model there exists its own poker game. As for me, I have played the iPoker from Scenario Software (www.scenario.com) and Live Poker from Zynga (www.zynga.com).

Both games are free in their basic version, the manufacturer gives you $ 100 to start.

If you lose the game you will have to top up, if you beat your opponents, you do not need to pay into account. What is no less important – you will play the game with real people.

The game supports an offline mode for training where you will be given a chance first to learn to play the game by yourself and to learn the basic rules of the game and then you will be able to play poker online.

Besides, there are some peculiarities in playing poker on your iPhone. Touchscreen allows you to feel the game deeper – since it is much more interesting to drag the dibs along the playing field than just press the buttons.

Meanwhile if you play big animated versions (they are paid), it is possible to handle your cards as if they are in your hands what makes poker almost real.

Simple interface, excellent animation and effects, offline mode for poker training, multiplayer mode via the Internet, free upgrade in the sequel – all these.

As you may guess from its name, Real Racing is nothing but another game of the racing type for the iPhone / iPod Touch. And I should say this entertainment app is an outstanding embassador of the genre on this platform. There are five modes in the game including Quick Race mode, Time Trial mode, Career mode, and Connected mode. However your use of the app will most likely be limited to Career mode. This mode allows player to compete with opponents in different leagues and unlock new models of cars, levels of difficulty , and tracks.

The Connected mode is an amazing opportunity to race against your friends and other people globally. You can join one of the existing local games or create a new one.

Obviously, Real Racing is one of the most well-designed games for the iPhone I’ve seen so far. The graphics, sounds, and controls are superb and closely emulate real racing on different cars and surface tractions.
