Charade Date – Mr. Right Could Be Just An Eight-Second Video Away

Price: Free Rating:  Charade Date iPhone App Review by http://iphoneappreviewonline.com

Reviewed by Adam Itkoff

Ok, so you’ve tried OKCupid, Tinder, Match.com, JDate and um, real life. No luck? Well, it might be time to try Charade Date, from DNA Mobile, LLC, a new turn-based dating app that’s poised to revolutionize the world of dating, not just through iOS, but through digital communication in general. If you haven’t heard of this app, this is your heads up. Virtual dating just got a whole let less lazy and a whole lot more crazy.

Features: 

The features of this app are relatively straightforward, yet groundbreaking at the same time. The app as a whole is somewhere between Chatroulette (yes, you remember that eight minute fad) and a typical dating site. Like typical dating websites, the user sets up a profile that reflects their unique personality and begins to browse other users based on location and criteria.

The user then is able to request games from players and receive requests according to their preferences.

Here’s where the fun kicks in; the users once commenced have a selection of over 500 charade motifs to act out in an eight second video. That’s right, you’re actually interacting with the other person, moving you immediately way above and beyond the whole, “Hey, What’s up” stage.

For someone looking to clue into the others personality or looking for more pizazz than your typical dating app, well, Charade Date has the recipe.

Concept and Functionality: 

While this app is still growing into its full potential through a growing user base, the overall concept is stellar. The functionality can only improve through time, updates and an expanded pool of users, so we’re quite optimistic about this one.

The app really gains points though, for its creativity. We’ve seen too many apps kick around old ideas in hopes of a breakthrough. While some games catch fire, and Instagram hits a billion-dollar valuation, about thirty million other apps fall by the wayside. But we’re highly optimistic about this app.

With the right demographics using it, this could really catch on. And for the Facetime generation that demands more, well, Facetime, Charade Date could really catch on fast.

Overall Value: 

We’re not saying that this app is perfect, but it’s damn near close. It would definitely be a perfect app if you could find Mr./Miss. Right the first time you log-in, but hell, then they could charge $10,000 per-download.

Really, we give this app a top rating because it goes above and beyond. It takes what could be a pedantic idea, and morphs it into something fun, youthful, unique and even sexy.

Overall, Charade Date has created something useful and new with this app. And in the niche market of lust and love, they’re bound to get a full queue of vibrant users in no time.  So what are you waiting for? Your dream spouse could be just an eight-second-charade video away. Actually though.

Charade Date requires iOS 5.0 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5. A small expedite fee was paid to speed up the publication of this review.

Beatles Reimagined: Easily Connecting Beatles Fans

Price: Free Rating:  Beatles Reimagined iPhone App Review by http://iphoneappreviewonline.com

Reviewed by Marilyn Chau

Beatles Reimagined, by Adage Group, is a free app aimed at connecting Beatles fans through a centralized mobile platform. Released around the same time as the release of the Beatles Reimagined album, this app seeks to bring a sense of community to the album’s listeners. (Beatles Reimagined is an album featuring some of the Beatles’ songs re-done by modern artists in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the 1963-64 Beatle’s songs.)

Features: 

Fans of the Beatles Reimagined Album will most likely be excited about the features of this accompanying app. The app basically provides what an easy-to-navigate, portable “about the album” website would.

With quick clips of each of the songs on the album (as well as direct links to allow users to purchase those songs), those unfamiliar with the Beatles Reimagined project can still enjoy the app while also educating themselves about the project.

In addition to these quick clips of the songs, Beatles Reimagined also features artist biographies for the musicians who contributed to the project; these musicians range from somewhat lesser known artists to “big names” like Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. Music videos are also featured in the app, and the opportunity to comment/discuss one’s thoughts on the entire Beatles Reimagined album/project is also an option.

Appearance and Layout: 

The appearance of Beatles Reimagined shouldn’t leave fans with any complaints, and the layout of the app should be equally well-received.

The app is easy to navigate with a very clean interface, and first-time users should easily be able to find their way through the app to enjoy its various features.

Graphically speaking, the most impressive part of the app is probably the beetle featured as the opening screen of the app; however, users should still enjoy the clean layout throughout the rest of the app as well.

“Graphics” for much of the rest of the app is simply left to pictures of the contributing artists, and this decision serves well the overall purpose of the app.

Value: 

Beatles Reimagined is a completely free app (although there is still a price for any songs purchased through the app). As such, the “price” of Beatles Reimagined should leave fans with no complaints.

Additionally, since this app is completely free to use, anyone unfamiliar with the Beatles Reimagined album/project can easily use the app to educate himself on this creative music project.

Beatles Reimagined requires iOS 5.1 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5. A small expedite fee was paid to speed up the publication of this review.

Rocco’s Block Land Is a Free 2D Side-Scrolling Game for iPhone and iPad

Reviewed by Sarah Hanlon

Rocco’s Block Land, developed by York Burkhardt, is an entertaining 2D side-scrolling game for iPhone and iPad. Fans of classic games like Super Mario will definitely enjoy this modern version of the game.

Concept and Gameplay: 

Though Super Mario is likely the definitive side-scrolling game, it’s fun to see what developers do to add their own spin on this classic genre. Rocco’s Block Land includes amusing arcade like gameplay, great music, and exciting little twists and turns that keep players on their toes.

Rocco’s Block Land features Rocco, an adorable little ball who rolls through the world collecting stars and coins. Controlling Rocco requires pressing the directional buttons on the bottom left part of the screen.

Players can make Rocco roll right or left, and even jump. Each world is filled with bad guys who are waiting to steal a life, as well as bonuses and powerups to help Rocco make his way to the end of each stage.

From invisible boxes and the classic question mark containers to bonus levels and ominous bad guys, I have to admit that I’m fairly disappointed in the game as far as coming up with original ideas and content. Rocco’s Block Land only has one soundtrack, so I found myself shutting audio off after a few minutes of gameplay.

Overall, the game felt like a modern version of Super Mario with little to set itself apart from the undisputed ruler of side-scrolling games.

Features:

Rocco’s Block Land includes a handy tutorial to help guide new players through the basics of the game. I found the tutorial to be helpful and informative, and it pretty much explained everything a player needs to know in order to successfully complete levels.

The game also offers three difficulty modes, which is perfect for casual players and those who like a good challenge. Lastly, there are two save slots to save to, allowing multiple players to progress through the game on the same device.

Rocco’s Block Land offers a couple customization options for players, including the ability to select the menu background color and the color of your Rocco character. While not something that’s groundbreaking, it does add a nice touch to the game. I do wish there were a few more options as far as Rocco styles, but hopefully this is something that will be improved in future updates.

Value: 

Rocco’s Block Land is available to download from the App Store for free and is universally compatible with iPhone and iPad. The free version of the game allows you to play a small handful of levels and you’ll need to pay $0.99 via in-app purchase in order to unlock the remaining 50+ levels. If the ads on the main screen annoy you, that’s another $0.99. Overall, I definitely think the level unlock purchase is worth it, but spending almost a dollar to banish ads on the menu screen is not.

Rocco’s Block Land requires iOS 4.3 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
