Track Lapse Does Not Lack Apps

Track Lapse! It’s the classic tale of a marathon runner who can’t keep his mind on the race, so he begins to imagine himself dashing through a disco, or volcano, or zombie apocalypse. Like if Chariots of Fire got mixed up with Inception. And it’s all presented in App form, coming to the App Store on February 15th [...]

Rise of Dragonian Era to Occur this Weekend

Normally, when one refers to the rise or fall of an entire era, it’s with the benefit of historical hindsight and perspective. An era is a long time, after all. So, when TriplePoint client Mgame USA let us know that Rise of Dragonian Era was something that was happening this coming weekend, we were naturally a [...]

Sea Stars are Free Stars

The tricky thing about putting out a huge update for a game is that only people who already have the game get to benefit from your generosity. Clearly, according to TriplePoint client Hothead Games, the answer is to amplify your generosity tenfold. Sea Stars, which is seeing a sea of seaworthy updates today, is offering to [...]

dreamfab Loves You, Not Your Money

dreamfab just wants you to be happy (and also visit some hills). They don’t care if you can pay for their iPhone physics puzzle game or not. To prove their love to you this Valentine’s Day, the selfless TriplePoint client has put out a free version of Happy Hills, appropriately named Happy Hills Free. Read for [...]

Breakout: Boost Sends Valentines to Players, Players Smash Them

You guys are just plain cruel, you know that? I thought it was a very nice gesture from TriplePoint client Atari to offer a new Valentine’s Day level pack to players of Breakout: Boost, and for only 99 cents at that. Here they are, pouring their hearts out to you in level form, doing stuff [...]

Focus Home Launches a Pair of Sites with a Bunch of Screens

I did not just call beloved TriplePoint client Focus Home Interactive “parasites.” I said they just opened a pair of sites. Websites. Pages where you can read about a couple of new games they’ve got coming up. I don’t even get how you misunderstood me; this is a text-based medium. I literally spelled out what I meant for [...]

Wargame: European Escalation Has Even More Too Many Units

Wargame: European Escalation Has Even More Too Many Units

Remember, last week, when we openly chastised Wargame: European Escalation for trying to have over 360 in-game units? They clearly haven’t learned their lesson. In fact, today, TriplePoint client Focus Home Interactive released even more screenshots with even more units, which is just making us even more upset that they could be so reckless. Still, if you’d like [...]

Wake Up, Pygmies; Time to Die

Having time-travel powers, as movies and books have taught us, would be pretty fantastic. You could go back into the past and hunt dinosaurs, or go to the future and learn the results of sporting events, and nothing could possibly go wrong. Unless you’re a Pocket God pygmy, in which case everything will always go wrong, [...]

Androids Can Now Save Yello

Androids. Yes, they’re heartless machines masquerading as people, and they will probably some day enslave our planet. But even a cold, unfeeling Android wouldn’t turn its back on a helpless goldfish, removed from its bowl and in desperate need of rescue. Worry not, future machine overlords — Saving Yello has been released for Android phones by [...]

Myth confirmed! If you’ve been waiting for a chance to play Mythos Global, a new MMORPG full of satyrs, cyclops, and dungeon-crawls, well, you can stop thinking of the game as some far-fetched fairy tale.

Pocket God’s Tragic Comics are the Best Ever

Frisky Mongoose may have a touch of bias when we tell you that the Pocket God Comics app, which allows you to read hilariously malicious comics from TriplePoint client Bolt Creative, is the best comic app ever. So, it gives us tremendous pleasure to be able to say that with independent, external validation. Pocket God Comics was just [...]
