App Reviews: Angry Birds Halloween, Samurai II: Vengeance, Zombiebooth: 3D Zombifier & More!

Dusty — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:29:27 +0000

This week many of the greatest apps on the App Store got an update, plus new versions were released too. With Halloween around the corner, developers are focusing on a scary theme.

Lets start with everybody’s favourite app, Angry Birds.

Rovio released a Halloween theme based Angry Birds that’s not an update but a separate app. Everything is pretty much the same except the background is a bit changed with spooky music. This is available for both iPhone and iPod Touch, and an HD version is also available for iPad.

You can check it out on the iTunes for $0.99.

Next we have is the sequel to the amazing game, Samurai: Way of the Warrior, and this one is called Samurai II: Vengeance – MADFINGER

If you’ve played the last version of this game, you’d probably know that it required only one finger, but things are a bit different now as the new version has a few buttons. Personally, I like the graphics and gameplay on this one but i miss the one finger slashing with bloody rage, and slashing the enemy in half like cutting an apple. Oh well…I guess that’s the way it is now. I recommend you trying this game out on iTunes for $2.99, believe me, it’s definitely worth it.

This one gave me the chills… literally! ZombieBooth: 3D Zombifier has got to be the scariest and most bone chilling app I have ever tried. Perhaps it’s just me or this is one scaaaaarrryyyyyy app.

Basically you put up a picture of you or anyone of your friends, and this automatically edits the picture into the scariest thing you can imagine. Plus the 3D effect makes your picture a video. The picture would automatically move, blink and make scary sounds, and if you touch the screen, it will nibble off your finger.

If you have a heart condition, this app is not for you. You were WARNED. Try it out for $0.99

This epic little app is not all scary, but it can be if you put a mustache on your wife, or maybe a Mohawk on your grandma. Barbershop has got to be the best *hairy* app I’ve tried so far. Using barbershop, you can put mustaches, weird hairdos, or epic beard, all for $0.99

A free version is available too called, Barbershop Freecuts, but it has less hairdos and other hairy stuff.

Hairstylez is the Female versi0n of barbershop. Try it out if you’re a chick but that doesn’t mean you Guy-chicks can’t try this $1.99 especially for you, no bargain, no refund!

Leave us your thoughts below. What’s your favourite app on the list or in the App Store?
