Invader Hunter

    Hey, everyone. I bought a game a couple of days ago. It is named Invader Hunter and it has been around for a while. I had started to buy it months ago when it came out but I read a review of it that was harsh and decided to wait until it went on sale. It is now on sale for 99 cents and I feel like that is a nice price. Here's the recipe.
    As a space marine at a space station you are sent out on missions by your commanding officer. The problem is, there are monsters that keep gaining access to the ship, like cockroaches, except they are huge, ugly and powerful. My personal favorite is a big goon that looks like rocks cobbled together. When he hits the floor, red stalagmites appear all over the room. Seems like an unusual gift. Ha, ha. There is another bad guy, pictured above, that I had to seek a place of sanctuary from. I can't recommend the view from down there, but at least I stayed alive long enough to use my rolling ability and eventually take him down.
    Fortunately, you can equip yourself with cool weapons, like an Orc gun, a Cherry gun or a Cobalt gun. Your aim automatically goes to the enemy when you press the button, then, when you release the button, the gun fires. There are special helmets, gloves etc., which you can buy with the generous supply of in-game cash.
      The graphics of this game are exceptional. The animations of the explosions are some of the best I've seen, with flashing lights that roll inside the explosion cloud as the enemy hits the deck. One monster flings out a grid of electrical charges which lays around the room, about three feet off the floor. It will rock your world.
      I must say that there are some hesitations in the flow of the game with my I-Pad 3, but overall, it plays okay.
     I like that you have an easy level to select. I like the fact that there are zero in-app purchases. It is a fun game and definitely worth the sale price of 99 cents. Is it as deep or as smooth as Nova 3? No, but it is a worthy buy and will give you a pleasant evening, I think.
    Check back later as I have a couple of other games to talk about. I'm CE Wills.

Game Review: NFS, Hot Pursuit

    This game was one which I refused to download for a while, even though it was on sale for 99 cents. I thought that it looked boring and narrow. Boy, was I wrong! This game totally kicks butt. It is one of those rare games that will actually give you an adrenaline rush. It is that intense. The developers, EA Games, have recently updated the app to include two main avenues of play. You can either be the cops or the racers who are trying to evade the cops. As a racer you have to deal with cops trying to hit you and make you crash, cops buzzing you with helicopters, oncoming traffic, tack strips spread across the road and roadblocks. In the cop mode you are a cop and you are trying to stop a reckless racer by any means, fair or foul. As a racer you can use nitrous oxide for increased speed, overdrive capability and oil slicks. You also can jam the cops communication with a jamming unit. Like almost all games these days, it gets harder as you go along. I prefer my games to...

Four Free Games

     Hey, everyone. If free games makes the start of a new week a little better, we're in luck. Check these out on your friendly, neighborhood app store. 1) Cowboys vs. Aliens vs. Ninjas- This is a dual stick shooter, much like Mini-Gore . You are an old-west cowboy with a vast array of weapons (earned gradually). You have to move and shoot, avoiding death, as you battle Ninjas and aliens. Some aliens are quite large. Some enemies are big Sumo Wrestlers. There are sword-wielding ninjas and these aliens that yield a mini-nuclear explosion when killed. When your enemies die they leave behind little stacks of money, or skulls. You collect these items because of a strange hobby of trophy grabbing for your macabre collection. Just kidding, the items can be spent or used as the game progresses. This is a good game and I played it for a while last night. 2) The Heist - A puzzle game with a twist. As you try to open a bank vault, you must face a series of different puz...

Bottle On The Doorknob

      Hey, everyone. I took a day of vacation today and really enjoyed it. We went out and bought some flowers. Flowers don't do well up here as a rule so we buy some and have a couple of big pots of assorted flowers on the deck for the summer. This year we are going to set the pots out in the yard a bit. The reason for this is the moisture and dirt in the pots seems to attract ants, scorpions and perhaps gnats. Bloody drag, what?     This weekend there seemed to be a bad odor in the house in the area of the master bedroom and the master bath. We could not isolate what the problem was. We did a number of things, including pouring vinegar and baking soda down the drains, which boils them out in rather spectacular fashion. Put a handful small amount of baking soda down them first, then pour vinegar down them. Very cool.     We finally deduced that a mouse had crawled up between the floor and sub-floor underneath the jacuzzi, after ...
