Navi Bunny by Apps and Smiles - Android Featured App
Navi Bunny - Android Featured App looks at first just like another Flappy Bird clone but actually, nothing is farther than the truth. Indeed, this IS a game where a small flappy creature has to fly to reach its destination and avoid several kinds of obstacles and travel through different worlds, avoiding different obstacles being placed in its way.
First of all we may want to spend a moment thinking about what makes Flappy Bird kinds of games so fun. First of all, they are simple and easy to play. A lot of android smartphone users still have relatively small screens, smaller than 4.5 inch. A screen this size makes playing big, sophisticated games tricky because everything has too be so small but a Flappy Bird kind of game is easy to play because of its simplicity and is relatively large size of icons and images.
That is why we want to show case Navi Bunny, a Flappy Bird kind of game with several interesting twists.
So, what is Navi Bunny? This game is a Flappy Bird twist where the character is not a bird but a bunny with a jet pack. Control and movement is fairly simple and straight forward, as it the game itself. Our bunny must fly through pillars and escape being crushed by obstacles obscuring his way while moving through several different worlds.
Navi Bunny has several things that make the app well worth playing. First and foremost, Navi herself and the game in general are VERY cute. That's not a feature important for everyone, but for those that crave cuteness, Navi Bunny and the entire app are extremely cute. In addition, the game has a very nice progression of difficulty. It is not impossibly difficult right at the start but it starts fairly easily and then the difficulty mounts in a way that makes playing the game fun and challenging instead of being of just frustrating. Another very helpful feature of Navi Bunny is the speed of its setup and launch. It is a very fast app and it launches and plays very fast. Not only this is very pleasurable (you don't have to wait for a long launch and setup) but it is very useful since playing casual games is perfect for utilizing a few spare moments if not half of this time is spent by waiting for the game to start running.
Last but not least is the stability of Navi Bunny. It is not the rule, but sometimes apps by new and small development studios are buggy and unstable but Navi Bunny appears to be rock solid, even when the characters reaches other worlds and advanced levels. In conclusion, Navi Bunny is a cute game, runs fast and is a very stable app, perfect for the casual game in a few spare moments we happen to have.

Fly Balloon, Fly! by PopSoda Digital Commerce - Android App Review
Fly Balloon, Fly! by PopSoda Digital Commerce - Android App Review. There is a reason games like Flappy Bird and Angry Birds were so successful. Actually, there were several reasons. Smartphones are there not only to provide communications and Internet access but for fun, and fun comes in several flavors. There is sophisticated fun, playing sophisticated games. There is the thinking fun, like the one we experience when playing word puzzles. And last but certainly not least, there is the simple yet addictive fun.Enter Fly Ballon, Fly!, a new game by PopSoda digital commerce. On the surface, it's quite a simple game in which the player controls the up and down motions of a balloon in order to avoid getting impaled on horizontal sharp swords and traverse diverse terrains and background. The question that begs to be asked is this: Is Fly Ballon, Fly! as good and as addictive as the older and more famous games such as Flappy Birds and Angry Birds?
Our reviewers were more than happy to try their hands at a successor for Angry Birds and Flappy Bird so all we had to do was lean back and wait for their reports.The first positive feedback came almost immediately. In sharp contrast to many other apps and games, Fly Balloon, Fly! does not require and special permissions from the Android operating system, putting those paranoids among us to rest (And as a side comment, it is always a smart thing to check what permissions an app wants, and rethink installing an app that seems to want too many permission than it really needs!).
The game play itself, according to most of our reviewers, is simple yet strangely fun. The player cannot really do anything more than allow the balloon to rise up or deflate its hot air to let it descend. However, this simplicity is deceiving since you have to develop both a keen eye to hand coordination and a clever strategy to make it past the first level and the menacing sharp swords that rise from the ground AND descend from the skies.
When letting your balloon rise, you have to calculate how long to let it rise, less it is impaled by the upper swords. You have to start letting your hot air escape and let your balloon start descending even when rising, calculating precisely where you're going to be in a moment to escape both the lower and upper swords. Later on, when hail and other balloons also appear, the game becomes even more complicated.
Our reviewers also lauded the simple yet handsomely implemented graphical user interface, reminding us of old fashioned cartoons, cute and attractive. The backgrounds and terrains are also very appealing and ad another level of attractiveness to this game. Did we mention that on later levels, the swords become lightsabers and not mere metal swords?
Our conclusion is that Fly Balloon, Fly! is a very attractive and addictive game, with cute and well executed graphics (thought not TOO slick!) which requires skill, thought and expansive mind to solve well. Perfect for the occasional break or for extended play, this game is certainly one of the games most of our reviewers liked the best.
As a side note, we should say that this is NOT an easy game, so be prepared to be challenged! - Score: 4.5. An addictive game, suitable for any dull moment and a real challenge to most gamers.
- Description: A social network platform based around chatting in chat room with a lot of exciting features thrown in.
- Good Points: Cute graphics. Very nice backgrounds. Addictive game with fun control of the flying balloon.
- Bad Points: Because of its difficulty, very young kinds (under 5, in our experience) would not play it for long.
- Experience: Our reviewers had no problem installing and running Fly Balloon, Fly! Understanding the game mechanics was also fairly easy. Mastering it was a different matter ...
- Longevity: Long. A perfect pastime for breaks and dull moments.

Lebron James NBA Champion Game - Featured Android App

Lebron James takes on the rest of the NBA in this exciting and addicting flappy birds 2.0 game. Other NBA superstars of today and some all-time legends such will randomly challenge you to a game of 1-on-1.
Beat their score to unlock them and play as them. Almost all of the major NBA superstars of today are included: Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, Tim Duncan and more. It was also cool to see the creators included some all-time legends from the past such as Michael Jordan and Shaquille O’Neal. It’s significantly harder to beat these better players and we imagine it’d take quite a while to unlock all the characters in the game ... The game mechanic is pretty addicting and we found ourselves playing for hours without realizing it. The app makes could have introduced differing coin sound effects, and the world-wide high scores are really high – good luck getting in the top 10. Overall this is a pretty solid, addicting Lebron James NBA sports gameLink to Google Play
