Move the Box; Free iPod Touch App Review


Move the Box is a game for the iPod Touch and iPhone devices that is currently in the top games in the iTunes app store. The idea of the game is very simple and is a classic puzzle and logic based game. In the game, you will have to move the boxes around (as the title suggests) in order to clear the way. The game works by allowing you to move boxes and swap them with each other. All of the boxes are different colours and when you have three of the same coloured box in a row, you will notice that these then disappear.

When the boxes disappear, you will be further on your way to clearing the way and will have to keep working. The touch screen interface is perfect for this game and although the rules are simple, it is extremely hard when you get further into the game. The game is very similar to games such as Cut the Rope and others of that nature and there are certainly enough levels to keep you entertained for a while too. There are actually 168 levels in total that get harder as you go through the game.

The graphics of the game are very relaxing and a lot of care and effort has been taken to get this feel from the game. The graphics are kind of similar to that of Tiny Wings.

Move the Box is available to download from iTunes app store here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/move-the-box/id491113310?mt=8

Tiny Tower; Free iPod Touch App Review


Tiny Tower is one of the most popular games out there for the iPod Touch and iPhone devices and the great news is that it is available completely free of charge. The idea of the game is that you run your own tower in which you will have residents to keep happy and businesses. The game is very retro in its feel and the interface is reminiscent of the old Mario games on Nintendo consoles. This is due to the pixel nature of the game which actually adds to the game play rather than take away from it.

Tiny Tower is quite a simple game in which you simply have to earn money in order to be able to build new floors for your tower and therefore get further in the game. Money is earned through business revenue and of course the rent from those that live in your tower. The game is extremely addictive and you will soon find yourself spending hours of your day making sure that everything is running smoothly.

A great thing about the game is that there are really so many different types of businesses that you can have in your tower and so many different things to do that there is hours to enjoy. The game also allows you to use real money to buy in game cash or tokens which will ease the difficulty in many situations. It is also connected to game center so you can compete with your friends.

You can download the app from iTunes here: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/tiny-tower/id422667065?mt=8

iTorch4; Free iPod Touch App Review


iTorch4 is an application for the iPod touch and the iPhone 4 device which will allow you to create a torch out of your phone or iPod with the touch of a button. Before we talk about the app, it should be noted that the application will only work on the iPhone 4, iPhone 4S and the new iPod Touch which has a camera with a light on it.

Basically, iTorch4 is an application that will allow you to use the iPod Touch’s light on the camera to create a torch. As you will know, this light is extremely bright when it is on and the app will allow you to turn the light on and off to create a torch. The app is extremely simple and when you launch it, you will be presented with one button on the screen that will turn the light on and off. The good thing about the app is that it launches really quickly meaning that you are able to easily get to your torch when you need it, so long as you have it on your home screen of your iPod.

Another cool thing about this app is that it is often updated with cool little extras. For example, for Christmas, it turned the interface of the app into a Christmas theme which adds a little fun to the app. This was also the case for Halloween too.
