Another timeless classic - Simon for the iPhone. Simply repeat the sequence of lights that grows with each cycle.

For years you've been told to "think outside the box". Well, now "get in the box!"

Can you solve the classic cube-puzzle from within? Eight game zones await you from 2x2 to 9x9, and of course the classic 3x3 that started it all.

The game consists of a large forward view that responds to 'swipes' to move rows or columns. A set of four arrows in the title area rotate the entire cube. And a smaller rearview mirror area is provide so that the entire cube interior can be seen.

This is a timed event, so hurry!

uKingPong uKingPong
Game App 		TOP
3D version of the classic arcade game: BreakOut.

You defend the front wall of the court; either blocking the active pucks or catching floaters. Clear three layers of balls and advance through progressively more difficult levels.

Each level contains five sub-levels that determine back-wall depth. As it gets closer the game gets harder. Each level notes the number of active pucks (green balls). Skipping level-one gets the gamer to multi-ball play faster, but it is strongly encouraged to spend time in level-one and learn puck control. Gaging trajectory and timing is very important in-order to prevent or minimize multiple pucks reaching the paddle-wall (YOU) at the same time.

TIP: Tapping the screen away from the paddle pauses the game. Touching near the paddle and not on the paddle gets your finger out of the view. Dragging from the paddle-corners is the most useful position, just be careful not to paint yourself into a corner. And remember to rotate the iPhone too if hitting to one side is easier for you.

PahJong Hurricane PahJong Hurricane
Game App 		TOP
A single game combining facets of three classic games to exercise your brain: MahJong, Picket, and Tetris.

Symbols are dropped (ie rain down). Pair the 15-different celestial symbols that can appear in 6 colors and 4 orientations. The game board allows for three layers of symbols to build up.

Rain volume increases with each level. Highest level is CAT-5.

Enjoy the beginning level (Drizzle) to get proficient at tapping the symbols because it's going to get ugly.

Good Luck.

PahJong Tsunami PahJong Tsunami
Game App 		TOP
A very challenging combination of three classic games; MahJong, Picket and Tetris, into a single symbol matching game.

Twelve zodiac symbols populate the game board in waves. An empty board will be populated quickly.

Each level increases in wave frequency and volume. CAT-5 defines the highest level, and it will be a very notable accomplishment to reach it.

Similar to PahJong Hurricane; however, less stressful even though you have to work faster due to the higher volume.
