Princess Beauty Salon Game Review

Game name: Princess Beauty Salon
Platform(s): Android
Device(s) tested on:  (Samsung Galaxy)
Genre:  Dress-up
Creator(s): TNN Game
About the game: It’s less of a “game” and more of an application that little kids can play with to pass the time (or something like that), or almost like a digital doll.
Features:
·         Give princess a facial/spa/get rid of her pimples
·         Put makeup on the princess
·         Dress her up with different clothes
When installing: Must allow a Wi-Fi connection and access to photos/media/files (although I have not experienced the app accessing personal files/photos/media). Other than that, it’s a simple install, no real issues.
Game Play: Very simple game-play. All you really do is drag objects like tweezers to the character’s eyebrows, hover over them and it tweezes the eyebrows. Other things are a back rub, massage, etc. Then you dress her up, put makeup on her and then the “game” is over. Not a really big deal. I didn’t really like it; it was too simple for me.
RATINGS:   (Based on a 1-10 scale)
     Art: 4 (I’m not big on “cartoon-y” art, but the art was clean)
     Gameplay:  3
     Concept:
5 (I didn’t like it, but some may, so I set it at average)
     Fun factor:
3 (eh, not my thing)
     Performance:
 8 (it was slow in some parts of the game, but mostly quick loading, etc.)
Summary:
                This “game” can be considered a “time-killer”. If you have a little girl (age 3-12-ish?) on a long drive, just for example, this can distract the child for a little while. It’s a very simple application. But it won’t last very long; half an hour at most.
Ups:
·         The art is very clean
·         Good for killing time

Downs:
·         Pop-up ads are slightly irritating, but predictable, so it can be ignored fairly simply
·         Music is very repetitive, it gets very obnoxious very fast
·         There are some areas where I can’t pick up items, and then suddenly I can. Just weird.

Plumber Game Review



Game name: Plumber
Platform(s): Android, iPhone, Windows Phone
Genre:  Puzzle
About the game:
                Plumber is a free, easy-to-use puzzle game with HD graphics, in which your job is to prevent a flood from happening! Simply turn the different pipe pieces by touching them and connect them together to form a complete pipe. When you create a pipe, you will reduce the overall water levels. Make sure you anticipate a possible overflow!
Features:
·         Many, many languages available

When installing:
     Must allow access to external storage, allow the app to determine the phone number and device ID’s, whether a call is active, and the remote number connected by a call. Game size is 10.84mb.
Game Play:
    
Plumber doesn’t choke or crash like many games do, and it looks somewhat realistic (“cartoon-y” but still looks good) and animations are very smooth.
RATINGS:   Based on a 1-10 scale
     Art:        7
     Gameplay:   9
     Concept:  
8
     Fun factor:  
7
     Performance:
   10
Summary:
    
This type of game has been done so many times, I cannot say. That being said, I still like this game. It’s not necessarily the easiest game to master, but I still like it. It’s not a game I can play for hours, but for a little while it’s a great game.
Ups:
·         Good graphics
·         Doesn’t choke or crash
·         Keeps you thinking
·         Animations are very smooth
·         Keeps previous update history available on the “About” screen
Downs:
·         Fast-paced gameplay (can be a good thing, or not)
·          
Languages available:

·         Spanish
·         Italian
·         And many, many more…
