Review: iSlash HD for iOS and Android - Tablets Magazine

“Another copycat of Fruit Ninja ‘, that was my thought when I saw iSlash HD in the App Store. After having played the game for some time I think about it differently. It is anything but a copycat.

iSlash HD

As you level starts you will see a form of wood on your screen, including a sort of ninja stars that go back and forth. The goal is to achieve 80 percent of that timber to be cut without the stars trap. The app’s developer Duello, which also released the application Bellyfish.

levels

In the first levels of iSlash HD everything goes pretty easy, but as you progress through the game, the different forms and there are more stars. After a while, some edges of iron. This means that you do not see through you heels. Here, so you have to think for example to cut around it.

a solution

If you still progresses the green figures. If you find a great piece of road chops you get a bonus, for example a few seconds slow motion so you can chop. Easily along the stars But sometimes there will be a bomb out. If you do then drained on a star explodes and it made you so easily. There will also be exploding stars. These are a lot bigger and they will explode after a while there will be a number of stars at faster.

at levels no shortage because there are now 220 levels and this will be even more. The first levels you go through it quickly but the last levels take quite some time. Therefore. Enough fun

Power ups

Although the app itself costs money, there are also quite a few in-app purchases available. For example you can buy Coins, which you again bombs or the like can buy with. You can also purchase the so-called Power Blades, with this you can more quickly through a level back. Since these extra things quite expensive, the developer decided that you can play without additional purchases.

good stake

The design

The design of the app has an oriental touch. The status bar indicates the amount of wood you have to go chop is made of bamboo, and the music you fancy yourself a real Jackie Chan. The design is simple and has only a few buttons. In the main menu are four buttons present and a cup of news, which in reality is an advertisement for the game aforementioned Bellyfish. At the top are the Social and Play buttons.

Social

you get into the Game Center environment correctly and High Scores can be compared with that of your friends, you can play with obviously choose a level and play. At the bottom are also buttons Store and Option. In the store you can buy Starkillers, Power Blades, TimeBender and Skip Masters to help the game play. Faster you In options you can turn off the music and / or sound.

Conclusion

The app is definitely worth the money. The game offers hours of fun and a wide variety of levels with a simple intuitive interface. The number of levels is still being expanded so for now you do not sit still.

Download

iSlash HD is available for both iOS and Android. On iOS takes the HD version for iPad € 1.79 (download). Android is the app, with advertising (free download).

Flick: transfer files between iOS, Android, Mac and Windows - iphoneclub.nl

Saturday, May 25, 2013 (08:29) | Bart Breij

We published earlier this week a applijst with 5 cool iPhone apps to just a little easier with your iPhone to go, we write today about Flick. This is a new handy application that fits in the series. With the application you can easily photos, documents and contacts data between various devices. The app is available for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, Android and even Linux. You need only to wipe files. Connected to the same Wi-Fi network

We Flick (officially point out ) tested on an iPhone with three MacBooks have all the application installed. On the desktop, install the free application, the mobile app for iOS costs 89 cents and can also be used on the iPad . The devices have equal need to find each other and one of the Macs requires that even restarting the app in the system tray nestles top of the screen. In any application you see at the top of the screen, the devices that the application is connected and where you can share files. Go On the iPhone you do it by swiping horizontally. The various connected devices

Types files

You can send four types of files with Flick on the iPhone and iPad. Photos you shoot on the spot or takes your photo album is an obvious category. The second is that you get a contact from your address book of the iPhone. Then you have a pen ready for writing a message and finally there is an icon with dice. This comes and joking in the picture: a game of noughts and crosses that you can send – but that does not work on Macs

.

Options

Flick is not only the name of the app, but also the action that you perform in the app. You wipe files up towards the connected device thereon to bring the screen. You’ll also receive pictures and texts of others from top of the screen. You can address each file that you receive and klaarzet itself in different ways. With a tap you see the ‘Broadcast’ and therefore you can send the file to all connected devices. In addition, an auto-destruct timer on a file to have only temporarily to show him. Others Received files can share again with others, delete, save to your photo album, copy – but also used in the case of a picture as background in the app. You may otherwise receive more file types than sent: if someone a song or even a half gigabyte send large video file, which you can just see in the app

.

Improvement

Unfortunately Flick in our test sometimes suffer from lockups. In those moments you see for yourself and see receivers only a placeholder for the file you wanted to send, and you must send it to start again. Also, the current range of actions a little flawed and arbitrary in the app. Why could use a photo as wallpaper, but not assign to a contact? Why can not you put a car-destruct timer on a file that you broadcast, but only that you send personally? Further texts should be made more active. It would be nice if a link can open directly in a web app, for example, not just pasted text is that you need to bring back copy and paste to use.

The dominant idea is that Flick has a lot of potential. It works smoothly and because it supports so many different devices, it is really sharing with the right extensions and subsequent steps is a good way of files.
