Family Orbit by AppObit - Android App Featured Review
We on Android Review Center love our smartphones, for work, for saving money and (mainly!) for playing games and listening to music. But even we have to acknowledge that the most precious thing we have in life is our family. Thus, the most important apps are those that help our family stay safe.
This is why Family Orbit is such an important security app for our smartphones. It helps keep our family and loved ones safe. But how does it do it ?
Family Orbit is a private social network for the family built around security features that turn it into a security app. The app shows the location of each and every family member, allowing us to monitor every one quickly and easily. In addition, the app has panic buttons and quick notifications broadcast to alert the family immediately if anyone requires help, even if it is just for a pickup.
Another great security feature is zones and specified locations. The app manages these automatically, alerting the parents whenever a family member enters or leaves his or her specified locations, thus informing the parents that the kids have gone to school, left school, are now in the library or mall.
Of course, the problem with many family security apps is the cooperation of the kids but Family Orbit manages notifications and location sending automatically, freeing the kids from the need to constantly having to update their parents as to their location and status, improving their social status and thus insuring their cooperation with the app.
As we said earlier, Family Orbit is also a social network, just for the family. This insures that pictures, statues and other media exchanged between family members remains private, saving the kids from the embarrassment of having their parents looking over their shoulders on Facebook, for instance.
With the features we outlined and with additional features of monitoring pics taken with the kids' smartphone camera and their contact lists, Family Orbit is a comprehensive security app that the family members will easily cooperate with. In our book, this is a perhaps one of the best security apps we have seen so far.
Donkey Ollie by Aglaia Software - Android App Featured Review
We are living in a new age, an age where the devices in our pockets, our Android smartphones and mobile devices connect us to the entire world and to the huge repository of data that is the Internet. In fact, our smartphones now touch every aspect of our lives.
We can compare prices and shop through our smartphones. We can communicate directly or by text, images, voice message and video conferencing with almost anyone on the planet. We can play games and hear music on our smartphones and we can even make sure our family stays safe with the right apps. But what about the kids? What about our values?
Donkey Ollie is a special app, something that is quite different to the usual break neck apps and games we usually install on our smartphones. Donkey Ollie is actually an illustrated ebook with the famous character that millions of people already know.
The ebook has four parts with ten stories each that all help to explain, show and present kids with values that we would dearly love them to have, from understanding of the ten commandments to the miracles of Jesus and the Names of God.
Having an ebook for kids on your smartphone is MUCH more useful than first meets the eye. Everyone who has kids knows that sometimes you just have to keep the kids interested (during a wait in the doctor, for instance) and this app is ideal for that. Of course, having the app installed makes it easy to take a few minutes story break whenever and wherever we want, before bed or after dinner or just before sending the kids to school.
Using a famous character and using bright, colorful and totally professional graphics turns the app into a real joy for kids to see and even start reading, ideal for those kids who just learnt reading and are struggling with their first letters and short books.
To help strengthen kids' values, keep them occupied or just help them with their reading, Donkey Ollie is the right app in the right place.
Candy Cookie Hero Jam by KEM DEV GAME - Android App Featured Review
Google Play, the great repository of games for Android smartphones and mobile device holds more than a million apps, a large percentage of them being games. The collection of games is so large that anyone can find any game there with any theme, from robots to princesses to fantasy to zombies to dragons to aliens and the list goes on and on.
In addition, even when selecting a theme a player is interested in, the selection of games is still huge. From puzzles to arcade to first person shooters to strategy to adventure to trivia to massively multiplayer online games, the list of games is actually limitless. Which is actually the greatest problem facing any player.
The list, types and number of games of any type is SO large, players have great difficulty in finding good games. Fortunately for us, sites such as Android Review Games exist to help direct players towards the good and interesting games, and Candy Cookie Hero Jam is a game no one should ignore.
The game itself is quite simple. It is a match 3 puzzle game where the player must put together the sweet candies and cookies in order to solve the puzzles and let the hero finish the level and advance to the next level in this quite remarkable adventure puzzle game.
The game itself has a ton of powerups which make playing it interesting. The levels themselves are challenging and require thinking to solve, not mindless clicking. Of course, the professional graphics and music are quite immersive, creating a unique gaming experience.
We especially loved that last feature. A game possessing gameplay experience totally devoid of violence and enveloped only in sweet and lovable things AND requiring thought rather than quick fingers to solve is special. In addition, this makes for a game ideal for kids to play, much safer than blasting zombies.
Our conclusion that this game is ideal for anyone who wants to unwind, let the mind work and just immerse oneself in a safe and pleasant experience, whether that someone is a kid or adult. In other words, this is a real sweet game.
Android smartphones and mobile devices (yeah, and the other kind as well) are perhaps the best mobile gaming centers the world has ever known. They have ever increasing computing power (with the later devices sporting eight core processors), great screens with resolution better than full HD and of course, they are with us all the time.
All of this brings us right to the problem at hand. Google Play, the place storing all the games for Android is SWAMPED with games. Some bad, some worse, some horrible and a few here and there are real gems. The problem the average user who wants to have some fun on his smartphone faces is finding those rare gems. Luckily for you, we at Android Review Center have actually stumbled on exactly such a gem.
We are talking about the game Asciid by BPGames. The game's premise is simple and complicated at the same time. The player must survive a host of vicious traps of various kinds (from saw blades to huge swinging axes to spring traps - you get the idea ...), find a key and insert it into the door, all at breakneck speeds with the slightest mistake promising the player's character a gruesome death ...
Now, several things make this game exciting and interesting, much more than a lot of comparable Google Play games. The first one is the dimension walking the player's character can do. In other words, the character can instantly move between the light and dark areas of the level, merging with the dark to become a white character and vice a versa. Believe us, this actually opens your mind to moves and gameplay we have NEVER seen on any other game.
The second thing that makes this game stand out is its complexity. Despite having simple graphics and a 8 bit music score (with most levels sporting only three colors - black, white and red when the character gets splashed all over) this is a sophisticated game. Passing through the levels is not easy. The player must have quick and nimble fingers but most of all, he or she must plan his or her moves in advance.
The last and perhaps the most important thing is is originality. This game has a new and exciting twist to a familiar formula, turning it to a new experience to ANY player. And even though the game has attractive graphics and music, complex gameplay and can be played for a long time because is has random endless levels that change over it, its originality is perhaps its best trait. We loved it.

Penguin Run, Cartoon by Universal Games - Android App Featured Review
Not sure if the planners, engineers and scientists working on all the technologies needed to make our Android smartphones and mobile devices have planned this in advance, but the thing they helped create is one of the best gaming platforms ever made, in addition to all the other things it can do.
Let's think about. Every smartphone has a great, high resolution screen, vast computing power and intuitive touch controls in addition to tilt control.

This time the game Penguin Run, Cartoon by Universal Games has won this honor.
Penguin Run is all about a penguin in the arctic circle that must run and dodge various obstacles while catching fish and other goodies. The premise of the game is intentionally quite simple because the enjoyment of playing the game comes from its simplicity.
The game and the characters all all quite cute and after playing with the app for a while the player will become attached to those cute little marine birds that must navigate through all the obstacles. The fact that there are several penguins to be played just makes it more fun.
In arcade games will look for speed of playing and running the app, since good arcade games can and should be played immediately, for instance when waiting for the bus or a two minute compilation to finish. Penguin Run loads really fast and the running beings. The controls are also simple to operate and allow the player to concentrate on the game itself, instead on various control problems.
The game's graphics are very inviting. Simple on one hand yet all convey the feeling the character really is running in cold regions, complete with snow covered trees and even snow.
To sum things app, Penguin Run is a stylish cartoon type game with a lot of challenging levels and leadership ladders to compete with friends. Together with attractive graphics, easy and intuitive controls and lovable characters that need our help, this makes for a great game.
