Neuroshima Hex! : An Post-Apocalypse RPG based Board Game

Neuroshima Hex! App for the iPhone / iPod Touch and iPad is based on a strategy board game placed in a post-apocalyptic world of Neuroshima (a Polish RPG).

Each player leads one of four armies: Borgo, Hegemonia (Hegemony), Moloch and Posterunek (Outpost). Each army deck consists of 34 tiles - soldiers, support tiles and special actions.
You win when you destroy all enemy H.Q. or your H.Q. is the least damaged one at the end.

MouseHunt Horn App

I have been playing Mousehunt for quite a long time and it never boring as the developer keeps on updating the game every now and then. Recently, a handful of Facebook games are now being ported on the the iDevice and Android devices (Farmville and Castle Age to name a few) and I was hoping that HitGrab would also follow suit o developing an App for Mousehunt since the game is not really that complicated and finally they released the Mousehunt Horn App for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. Initially, I was a bit disappointed as the app has a limited functionality as it will only do the "Sound the Horn" and track the what mice your have caught for several hours. You can't change your trap setup or change your bait. You also can't change hunting locations.

Despite the limitations it has now, the app has a good interface an design. It would expect that Dave Vandenburg and co. can expound the functionalities at least to include functionalities like trap setup and cheese management as well as to change hunting locations.

Apple unveils the iPod Touch 4th Generation

I have been ranting before that how I wish Apple could include a camera on their future versions of the iPod Touch because I'm not really into the iPhone thing and my wish came true as Apple has officially released the iPod 4th Generation which include not only one but two cameras (one on the back and in the other infront for "FaceTime" features) and more cool features like Video Recording and Game Center.

Now this would be a good time for me to save up and get this new one as soon as possible.

Using Unionbank Eon Debit Card to Purchase Apps on Appstore

I got a tip from blogger friend of mine that we can use any debit cards as mode of payment on the Philippine App Store as long as it is Visa or Mastercard. On my case, I used my Unionbank EON cyber debit card for which I tried purchasing an app called called Ghost Puzzler ( which only cost $0.99) and it worked.

So to those who have Unionbank EON debit cards, you can use that to purchase apps on the Philippines App Store.

Bargain Bin app Review

I previously blog about Pandora Box a free that tracks paid apps that that becomes free or are put on sale by the developers and then comes Bargain Bin. The Bargain Bin app has the same function as Pandora Box with a better user interface since all the apps are organized based on their categories and you can also track any app that you want and alerts you if the app was put on sale or it become free (for a limited time or permanently).

Free (and Unavailable) Apps

I've been downloading free apps thru the Philippines Appstore to found out that there are good free apps that are only available on the US appstore which is frustrating. Free apps like IMDB app and Pandora Radio should be made available to other countries app stores.

Apps: Download Now, Use them later

There are a millions of apps that are being uploaded by developers everyday. Most of these apps are paid but there are times when developers decide to give away these apps for free either for promotional purposes usually for a limited time only.

That's why when there are apps that are free for download I usually download them ASAP just to save a copy on my iTunes because you won't know if these apps can be useful in the future. So download them when they are free.

PandoraBox App Review

Considering the stupefying volume of items currently available on the iPhone App Store, it’s little wonder that keeping track of the latest releases is frustratingly tricky. However, it’s even more difficult to keep on top of the numerous price changes and short-term sales that occur from time to time.

Publishers are forever tinkering with the value of their apps, with large price drops taking place on a daily basis. The trouble is, unless you have the time to scour the store every day then you’re liable to miss out on some of the larger bargains.

That’s where PandoraBox comes in. At first glance it looks like some kind of App Store-related clone, but in actual fact it’s a terrifically handy price tracker that allows you to quickly and easily view the latest offers.
