Every day hundreds of new apps make their debut on the App Store, and hundreds more are updated or reduced in price. We have sifted through the noise and highlighted those select few that might be worth your attention.
Crazy Taxi – ($4.99)
It's time to make some craaaazy money! Sega's coin-op and Dreamcast classic about picking up travelers and recklessly driving to their destinations as fast as possible returns on iOS today. You can watch the world's shortest trailer below:
Girls Like Robots – ($0.99)
It's a game of seating arrangements! In this puzzler design from Adult Swim, you're tasked to create the proper balance in a diner that's serving up delicious pie. Girls like robots, so you can sit them next to each other – but girls don't like nerds, so don't put them together, and then girls also don't like . . . well, you get the idea. See if you can puzzle it all out:
Pocket Sweetie – (Free)
Speaking of girls, those of you with a young daughter or niece in your life might want to put Pocket Sweetie in their hands – it's kind of like a virtual pet game, except featuring a little girl who needs fun and fashion just as much as food.
Monopoly Millionaire for iPad – ($4.99)
First to a million wins! This new, more focused and faster version of the venerable board game has that defined goal in mind from the start, so you don't have to worry about the traditional slog through days and days of play to actually finish a round.
Kumo Lumo – (Free)
In "the world's first rain-'em-up," you take command of a sentient cloud named Kumo Lumo and roam the earth raining on things – like trees, to make them grow, and fires, to put them out.
Death Dome – (Freemium)
You're a post-apocalyptic survivor fighting back against a horde of murderous mutants in Death Dome, Griptonite's latest – try it out for free, but be aware that in-app purchases are peppered throughout the quest.
Topia World Builder – ($0.99)
Leisurely command the powers of a god to shape a planet's landscape in Topia World Builder.
Devil's Attorney – ($2.99)
Alright, this one's worth checking out for the trailer's theme song alone, a wonderful ballad pulled straight out of the '80s. The game itself may interest you too, as a turn-based strategy casting you as '80s era power attorney Max McMann.
Funky Smugglers – ($0.99)
Wield the power of an airport security guard and scan suspicious smugglers with your powerful X-ray machine in 11 bit studios' Funky Smugglers.
Pocket Climber – ($0.99)
Become a virtual urban Spider-Man with this climbing sim, swiping at the screen as you parkour your way up the sheer vertical face of a skyscraper.
Oh! Sheep – ($0.99)
Unleash your inner shepherd with this path-drawing, sheep-herding game that you can download and try for free before investing your 99 cents for a full unlock.
Polara – ($0.99)
And we'll end today's huge lineup of new releases with Polara, the App Store's latest auto-runner. Give it a look:
Pocket Planes – (Free)
Players of NimbleBit's casual airline sim were distraught when a recent update introduced a ton of bugs into the design, but the new latest update squashes them all. Download it and get those planes back in the air.
That's all for today! If you haven't already, consider subscribing to the App Store Update via email. It's extra convenient!
