MID TERM EXAM#1

According to time magazine, the company, Apple, picked the “Best” iPhone and iPad games of 2011. Some people may have thought that the game of the year in the U.S. would be Angry Birds, but actually it didn’t. The game that did win is called Tiny Tower. It is a real-time tower-building and time management game by NimbleBit. Angry birds did win the top selling game though.
          Some of the top ten games were Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Season, Cut the Rope, Doodle Jump, Fruit Ninja, Tiny Wings, and Tiny Tower (not in that order). The game of the year in Europe is Tiny Wings. That game is about a bird with very tiny wings. He is in a small world filled with tall hills and steep drops. When people play that, they have to guide the little bird up and down the hills to go faster. Runner-ups to this game in Europe were Tiny Tower and To-Fu 2.
On the iPad, U.S.’s pick was Dead space. In Europe it was Contre Jour. Contre Jour is a physics puzzler with creepy, artistic graphics. Time magazine has also set a bar for the best games and apps on the iPhone. The games are Angry Birds(of course), Scrabble, Plants vs. Zombies, Doodle Jump, Fruit Ninja, Cut the Rope, and many more. The ‘on the go’ apps are Kayak, Yelp, World Lens, Weather Channel, Open Table, and a few more.
