Tempo Magic Pro iPhone app Review

Description:

The Tempo Magic Pro iPhone app is a great way to take any song or playlist that has a slower BPM and to turn it up so that it perfectly complements any workout routine!

Features:

  • One of the coolest features that is located on this app is the ability you have to run the BPM to a higher speed without ruining the pitch of the song
  • Another neat feature that comes along with this five dollar app is that you will be able to play all of your audio files protected or not straight from your iPod library
  • If you are currently listening to a song and you would like to up the tempo to help it better fit your workout then you can do this at any time
  • One of the other cool things this app can do is take all of your playlists and songs that have different tempos and make it all fit into one tempo of your choice.  This is called the BPM lock mode
  • There is a playback feature that has absolutely no gaps in it
  • You also have great control over the shift so that you can either slow the song down or raise it up by almost 25%
  • This app is also great for music multitasking.  This means that you will be able to play it perfectly in the background while you do other things
  • This app is also compatible with top workout accessories like Bluetooth Audio as well as Nike +
  • The retina display on the iPhone 4 does a great job of making this app look stunning

Conclusion:

This app is great because it can help you turn any workout into the perfect workout by creating the best soundtrack possible.  If you get great songs that have really high energy and fast beats, it can help you up your game and work yourself harder.  This is a great way to take all of your favorite songs out there and up their tempo so that they match your feet while you are running or help you to pedal on your bike and keep up your pace.  Pretty genius idea for a music app on the iPhone.

This game has been given an overall rating of 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars by iPhone app users that have already tried it out.  The game is a little pricier than most and runs at around $4.99 to be able to purchase and download.

Star Wars: Cantina iPhone app Review

Description:

Do you love the Star Wars universe? Then come on in to the Cantina and have a drink!

Features:

  • This game allows you to do a lot of things but the main purpose of it is to let you own your own Cantina in the Star Wars universe
  • As you take on the challenge of running a successful business you will have to do all that you can to keep your customers happy.  You will need to be quick on taking orders, deliver all of the drinks on time, and just check up on your customers so that you can get big tips
  • One of the fun things about the game is that you will get to see a funny side of the Star Wars universe you haven’t seen before
  • As you make a lot of money in tips you will be able to start adding some legit upgrades to your little eatery so that your customers enjoy it even more than they already do
  • The career mode is especially fun because you will have to follow the storyline and pass all of the harder levels in order to get through the game
  • There is also an endless mode where you have to see how long you can keep up with all of the different customers that come into the store

Conclusion:

The Star Wars universe is so vast that there are an endless amount of games that can be created for it.  Because of this, you are likely to see more games like Star Wars: Cantina pop up.  This game takes somewhat of a humorous spin on the franchise and puts you in charge of your own cantina.  You will have to do all that you can in order to take orders from customers, sell them galactic drinks, and also just please them to a point where they leave some huge tips.  As you make more money you will be able to upgrade your cantina and these little things will be what really helps your customers feel comfortable and enjoy themselves.  There is a career mode that you can access that allows you to go through increasingly harder levels so that you can see how much money you can earn and how upgraded you can get your cantina.  You will see a lot of familiar star wars characters and you will love the cartoonish visual style that goes along with the game.

This app has been given a rating of 3 1/2 out of 5 stars by iPhone app users and is a must have for anyone that is obsessed with the Star Wars universe.  The only main downside to this app is that it costs $2.99 to be able to download it onto your iPhone so it is a bit more expensive than most apps.

Buck and the Coin of Destiny iPhone app Review

Description:

In the Buck and the Coin of Destiny iPhone app you will take the place of a little white fluffy bunny as he tries to get the magical coin from the deadly enemies and obstacles found in the levels!

Features:

  • One of the really cool features about this game is that all of the levels that you will play in are actually randomly generated.  This means that the replay value of the game just soars because you are never really sure what is going to happen next in the game as you are playing it
  • As you move through the story mode in the game you will also find that it is littered with all kinds of different cut scenes.  These are fun to watch and really add to the overall feel of the entire game.  You will fall in love with the character as he works his way through all of the challenges in the levels
  • There are a few different game modes including the story mode and also the endless arcade mode.  In the arcade mode you can pretty much just keep on going and going to see how long you can survive and to try and get the highest score available.  The only way you end the game is if you end up dying!
  • This game also has a lot of achievements that can be unlocked throughout the game. These are fun to unlock and you will have to see if you can get them all by the time you are done playing the game
  • Last of all, this game is also connected to Facebook through Facebook connect so whenever you get a really high score that you are especially proud of, you can share it with all of your friends through this social networking site

Conclusion:

This is a sweet little platformer that you will learn to love.  It is a side scrolling adventure in the tradition of Mario, except this time you are a fluffy white bunny.  One of the really fun things about the game is the ability that you have to get cool power ups and turn your bunny into pirates and other cool stuff.  The levels are randomly generated so the replay value is high on this game.  It’s pretty cheap to purchase and download so it is probably worth a look.  Go ahead and download it and give Buck the Bunny a try.

This app was given an overall rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars by iPhone app users that have downloaded the app and actually played it.  You can download it and play it yourself by purchasing it for the price of $0.99.
