Never Stop Playing Poker for Any Reason with Casino by Zeniz
Gambling at the casino is pretty great, but there’s two fatal flaws in the process: One; you have to go all the way there and at some point they will probably want you to leave. Two; they usually want money from you at some point. Both of these problems have now been solved by TriplePoint [...]

Tuesday, May 1, 2012
Back in the day, we here at Frisky Mongoose were big fans of Restaurant City, one of Playfish’s early Facebook offerings.

So, it is with some [...]

Wednesday, April 4, 2012
Here at Frisky Mongoose, we’re all about public health and safety. So, consider this a bit of friendly advice: If you would like to approach a bear cub, dress it in one of several adorable outfits, tickle it, and then enter it in a contest of luck or skill, that’s fine — so long as [...]

Thursday, March 31, 2011
Just in case you’ve been feeling inadequately fabulous lately, TriplePoint client TeamLava has fashioned a new app that will get you turning heads again. Well… turning towards your phone, anyway.

Monday, August 30, 2010
I’ve never “played” Foursquare, but I have used it. To me, most location based check-in apps (like Foursquare & Gowalla) are more of a novelty than anything. You don’t have to look too hard to find a debate on whether or not this type of geocaching should be considered a “game” in the standard definition. [...]

Monday, August 16, 2010
FarmVille naysayers — they’re everywhere (according to Games.com). They come in the form of Facebook friends who are tired of being spammed with game-related with quests on their wall, people who think games in general are a waste of time, and they also, apparently, write for The New York Times. Over the weekend, The Gray [...]

Sunday, August 15, 2010
How many pop-ups is too many pop-ups? Shouldn’t there be a more reasonable cap on pop-up notifications, so players can get busy playing (and spending money, for that matter)? Log-in interruptions are particularly bothersome in my opinion, but some games are offering smoother entry these days, so I’ll just assume that’s been noted and move [...]
