Happy Cow Tipping Game Review

Happy Cow Tipping for Amazon Kindle Fire has fun and super addicting to play. Using a mega-powerful slingshot you can tip over the cute little cows which will put a smile on your face.

No Farm Needed…

Thanks to physics-based game play (with the strong advantage in your court), cow tipping has never been so easy, safe, and well–possible.

The simple game play doesn’t exactly mean it’s a simple game to play. You must carefully contemplate your shot if you want to master all 30 puzzles.

To start your Cow Tipping adventure you simply pull back on the slingshot, take aim, and release.

Oh and be sure to keep your eye on the shot clock. You have to complete each level before time runs out in order to proceed to next level.

A little bit strategy is involved and needed as you face different obstacles going through the different levels. You have to be creative with each shot and learn what angles provide the best Cow Tipping results.

If some one is looking for a game to kill boredom as well as fill down time with some fun and entertainment, it is easy for me to say that this app will provide that and much more..

No matter what your age this game is suitable for all ages as every one can discover the joy of cow tipping on you Kindle Fire.

I have to say that the Amazon App Store has a Hit on its hand as Happy Cow Tippers has already made its way onto the the Top 100 App List on the Kindle Fire and continues to climb its way up the charts.

I will warn you that this game is addicting and makes putting down the cute little cows hard to do.

SimplePhysics Review
The long awaited sequel to BridgeBasher, SimplePhysics revolves around building structures to withstand certain tests – For example, building a skyscraper that will stand up in high wind, building a ferris wheel that will carry people through two revolutions or perhaps building a treehouse that has to hold 5 children? The levels are fun and enjoyable, and will test the brain of everyone from the average Joe to the structural engineers among the masses.

SimplePhysics Review

The app is quick to load and I was struck by how easy it was to build a structure that would stand a chance of getting past the challenges. However, SimplePhysics relies on the saying “An Engineer is someone who can do for a dime, what any fool can do for a dollar.” As so, there are cost limits in place. Your design does not just have to be strong enough, it also has to be cheap enough to beat the level.

However, the game only comes with a few levels, 10 of them to be exact, and a tutorial. It’s a fun game, but it is one that you could possibly blast through in a day or so. The other thing that disappointed me was that unlike BridgeBasher, this game does not have a sandbox mode, which would be entirely possible considering the rather fun “Finger Test”, where you can pull and explode your designs.

SimplePhysics Snowy Roof Level Review

Even without these additions, SimplePhysics is a great app for the boffins among our readers. It entertained me as long as it lasted, although I still can’t for the life of me figure out how to get that crane to not break lifting that weight.

Sleep Talk Recorder Review

Sleep Talk Recorder Review

Do you talk in your sleep? Do you ever wish there was a way of listening to yourself while you sleep, but without having to pick through a massive tape recording that would be 10 hours long. Well, there is now an app for that! Sleep Talk Recorder is an app that you switch on before bed with a timer, and then when you go to sleep it will record when it hears any noise, instead of recording everything all the time.

Sleep Talk Recorder Review

The app is extremely flexible and allows you to set the amount of time before recording, the threshold for the recording (Basically how loud the sounds have to be for the app to record them) and also allows you to preview all the recordings before you save them to the app. You can also share these recordings to facebook or twitter, just in case you want someone to know what you’ve been saying.

But there is another feature and that is the feature that allows you to upload your recordings to their website – And also view and listen too other peoples sleep talking through the app. This is actually, in my opinion, the best part of the app. There are lots of different recordings that people have uploaded. Upload your recording and see if you can make it onto the top ten for your country, or the world.
