Make bridges to keep the truck moving with Bridge the Wall

Simple games are usually the ones that you'd want to play over and over again. They seem to be addictive despite their crude gameplay. However, simplicity does not always mean something has high replay value, and Bridge the Wall proves just that.

Bridge the Wall displays a simple set of menus. The main point of the game is to help the moving vehicle cross the terrain by building bridges. You only need to touch one end point and drag your finger to the next end point to create a bridge that the vehicle can drive on. There are no … Read more

Have all the fun of extreme skateboarding without the pain of wipeouts

Extreme Skater may not be the most intense sports game for your iOS device, but with its well-designed interface and easy-to-understand gameplay, it proved to be a fun way to while away the hours.

The goal of Extreme Skater is simple. You guide the skateboarder as he collects coins and crystals, and (basically) you keep him from running into anything sharp. We like that the game is tilt-controlled, which means it's very responsive and also a little forgiving. Initially, you can swipe up to jump or tap onscreen controls to grab an object. As the game progresses, you'll … Read more

Collage your pictures

Picture Collage Maker Lite for Mac is a free, nicely designed, easy-to-use photo collage maker for creating greetings cards, collages, or scrapbooks for special moments, and it has 150 great templates. Unfortunately, almost all of them are locked, despite the fact that the promotional material talks about more than 100 being available, which is annoying.

Although the design resembles other applications available on the market, such as CollageIt for Mac, Picture Collage Maker doesn't just copy its competitors. At first launch, users will be asked to choose a template from the long list of those available, but this is … Read more

Expect derailments from Train Inventory

Like all collectors, model-railroad collectors need a way to organize their goods. Train Inventory is a program that seeks to help model-railroad fans with this task, letting users create a database to catalog their collections. Unfortunately, functional problems plague this program and make it hard to recommend.

The program opened with a .NET Framework error, which did not inspire confidence, and it turned out to be the first of many to come. The program's interface is simple but extremely unattractive, consisting of a gray background with some menus and text boxes for entering data. For each item, users can … Read more
