Android – Iphone – Applications

Some good news just came from a tweet from Dev Team member MuscleNerd who confirmed that a jailbreak and unlock for the new iPhone, whatever its name, will be available this month.

This jailbreak/unlock will be for iPhone OS 3.1.3 and 4.0 and will be compatible with all basebands to date for iPhone 3G/3GS as well as the new iPhone.

I’m trying not to get too excited because history showed us that sometimes things don’t go as expected and the release of a jailbreak and/or unlock could very well be delayed.

Still, I’ll cross my fingers.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could get the new iPhone and not wait too long for a jailbreak? That’d sure be another reason to update. What says you?

I’ll be honest: I love pet sims. There’s something wickedly charming about raising virtual creatures, and then being left to do with them what you will…whether that’s raising happy, healthy beasts or tormenting your pets mercilessly. Pocket Creatures is a pet simulator from Tactile Entertainment, and I have to admit that it taps that primal love for raising and tormenting cute little critters. It’s very sandbox-style and undirected, but what’s here is nevertheless a lot of fun.

You begin your Pocket Creatures hatching your creature, choosing its color, and naming it. Then, you venture out into the open world. Your creature is a lively thing with plenty of personality, and you can stroke it, poke it, or slap it to see how it reacts. An image appears over your pet’s head based on its mood, and swiping from the mood bubble to another object activates a special ability. Happy pets get a rainbow that can “heal” items, for example, while angry pets zap their surrounding with lightning.

On the island, you can have your pet zap anteaters with lightning to make anteater meat, or use a platypus’s bill to dig a hole to plant seeds or find treasure. How you interact with the animals determines your pet’s opinion of them; continuously zap a woodpecker and your pet will come to devilishly hate the bird. You can thus adjust your pet’s opinion of animals and even fruits. Most of the island’s activities revolve around planting and growing fruits. This “farming” will either give you a simple food plant, or a tree that grows creature-altering fruits such as the shrink-ray item. (There’s even a plant that turns you into a tiger, I hear.)

Other than farming, you can try to unlock the myriad achievements, which in turn can yield new accessories and outfits for your pet—anything from devil horns to viking hats—and of course you must tend to your pet’s needs such as sleep and hunger. But for the most part, the game lacks direction; new items are introduced slowly and there are very few activities. My other complaint lies with the gestures—the game sometimes misinterprets a slash versus a touch, and the controls are a bit imprecise.

Overall, though, Pocket Creatures is a hugely amusing pet simulation with a quirky, energetic main character. While I would like to see additional content, it’s nevertheless a lot of fun to explore the small island and torment its denizens with the help of your creature. Pet lovers should quickly come to adore the magical, bizarre star of Pocket Creatures.

Growing up I was a big fan of point and click action games. This was due to that fact that my step-father worked at sierra entertainment, and we got all the games for free. I have been waiting for these types of games to surface in the app store.

When I came across Laura Jones and the Gates of Good and Evil the first thing that popped into my head was Laura Bow and the Dagger of Amon Ra (a sierra game). I was excited, so I loaded up the game and waited and waited and waited while the game was chopping through the intro sequence. Then I tried entering my name to start a new game and had to shut it off because my 3G couldn’t process the game fast enough. I then loaded up the iPad with the game and wala it worked. Mind you this problem has been fixed and is currently playable on the 3G. So we know Astar-Nevosoft was aware of the problem and got it fixed a.s.a.p.

In the game you are Laura Jones, daughter of a famous adventure duo who stumbles across a mysterious stone that begins the quest to find the gates of good and evil. The characters are a bit cheesy and there is quite a bit of dialogue to get through but the story is interesting.

Each level begins with some dialogue and then you do a find the object in the picture type of game. After certain levels you play a mini-game that gets unlocked in the home screen for later play. A few levels are more intricate and there is more of a puzzle vibe in example finding keys to open drawers that have the safe code etc etc.

All in all the game is fun but defiantly not what I was hopping for. It is a step in the direction towards point and click games I have grown to love and for that I was pleased. If you aren’t a fan of the “find the object” type of game though this is not for you.
