New App Hungry Moles is a Fun and Challenging Multi-Level Maze Adventure - Published on 04/23/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

In the new no-cost iOS and Android app Hungry Moles from Crumb Media, gamers must put their memory and strategy skills to the test as they help Murray the Mole navigate through one maze after another, in order to finally arrive home safe and sound. Each level has specific objectives, and cool power-ups are available to avoid dynamite, bombs and traps along the way. Hungry Moles features crisp and colorful HD graphics, with fun music, sound effects and much more.

Cupertino, California - Gamers who want to experience what some early reviewers are hailing as "the most challenging maze game ever made," can head over to the App Store or Google Play and grab the fun, addictive and indeed very challenging new app Hungry Moles. Available at no-cost and created by Crumb Media - the same developers behind the sports cap app Cap-z and the selfie-taking app SelfyMania - Hungry Moles is an interactive, multi-level adventure starring a wacky, wild-eyed character named Murray the Mole. Here's the back story:

One day, Murray the Mole was doing what he loved best: digging for gems. But his scavenging caught the attention of Sylvia the Snake, who decided that he'd be a lot tastier than the bird eggs she was about to snack on. Fortunately for Murray, snakes have a tendency to "HISSSSS", and Sylvia was no exception. And so at the last minute, Murray turned around, saw that he was about to become snake food, and bolted away.

That's where the Hungry Moles action starts. Gamers must put their memory and strategy skills to the test as they help Murray the Mole navigate through one maze after another, in order to finally arrive home safe and sound. Each level has specific objectives, including the maximum number of moves allowed, and the gems that are available to be collected. Gamers who collect enough gems can use them to add moves, lives, time and power-ups.

And speaking of power-ups: they come in very handy, because Murray has more than Sylvia to worry about. Each maze has at least one - but usually a few - unwelcome surprises, including bombs, dynamite and traps. Gamers must therefore have the insight to avoid these hazards, or the foresight to protect themselves with the right power-up (i.e. the power-up to protect against bombs only works for bombs; not dynamite or traps). Other cool power-ups include adding bonus moves, being able to make it past small stones in one move instead of two (there's no getting past the big stones or roots), and so on.

Other Hungry Moles special features include:
* A handy gem counter that keeps track of progress
* Crisp and colorful HD graphics
* Fun music and sound effects (mute option available)
* The ability to invite Facebook friends to play directly from the app

"How many times have gamers downloaded a new app, only to get bored within a matter of minutes - either because it's too complicated or too easy?" commented Alex Roberts of Crumb Media. "Well, Hungry Moles is different! It's easy to understand and play, but very hard to master - which means that gamers can look forward to having fun and putting their skills to the test for hours and hours. It could wind up being the best, most addictive game they've ever played!"

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 43.9 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Hungry Moles 1.1.16, the fun and challenging multi-level maze adventure starring Murray the Mole, is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Games category. It is also available for Android tablets and smartphones from Google Play.

* System-wide keyboard shortcut to quickly add new tasks to inbox without having to switch apps

* View all your projects and tasks at a glance

DayMap helps you make the most of every day, every week.

Roo Kids 2.1.7 released for iOS and Android - Kids Instant Messaging App - Published on 04/23/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bangalore based Gungroo Software announces Roo Kids 2.1.7, an update to its highly rated instant messaging app for iOS & Android devices. Roo Kids is a fun messaging app for kids with minimum yet critical parental controls. The parent is notified when their child adds a new user to their contact list and can even remove or permanently block a user. Kids can report an abusive message or user, and parents can take further action by reporting the abusive user. Version 2.1.7 adds bad word filtering.

Bangalore, India - The Roo Kids instant messaging app, a product of Gungroo Software has announced the full release of its app, making it easier for parents to rest easy about the safety of their kids. Created with a vision to be a safe and easy to use 'Whatsapp for Kids', it has been well received in the USA, UK and Australia, with a substantial number of downloads originating from these countries. The full release of Roo Kids sees it launch on the Android platform and major updates for iPad and iPhone users.

For parents of young kids, the fact that the Internet is a mixed blessing is old news. That there is easy to use technology to keep kids safe while allowing them to explore and learn online is the good news. Roo Kids has been conceptualized to address 2 critical concerns of parents when their kids are online - firstly, that of the kids talking to strangers and unknowingly making themselves vulnerable, and secondly, kids getting constantly distracted and this impacting their studies and health. The makers of Roo Kids claim that these objectives are achieved with minimum yet critical controls, thus making the app attractive to kids and parents alike.

Elaborating on the thought process behind the changes in the new release, Dinker Charak, founder of Gungroo Software said, "In the new release, we have tried to address all the concerns of parents regarding the online safety of their kids. The other thing is, even though we launched Roo Kids after considerable market research, our 'Aha' moment came when we realized that it is the tablet that the family shares. Thus Roo Kids is highly optimized for iPad, and the new release supports iPhones and Android devices as well."

From a safety viewpoint, this app seems to have covered all bases. Designed to broadly comply with the US FTC's Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), Roo Kids comes with safety features like SSL, zero ads on the app, and immediate notifications to parents if the kid reports a user as abusive, thus minimizing chances of online bullying.

On the other hand, parents get to own and review the contact list, blocking suspicious persons and strangers. Parents can also set curfew hours to block the app from working, to make sure the kids have a healthy schedule of activities online and offline.

This does not mean the app is all about parents and safety. It's apparent that the creators of Roo Kids understand that only a truly engaging app can keep the kids from trying other, potentially unsafe apps. They have given a lot of attention to making the app and its UI easy to use and attractive for kids, which includes allowing kids to keep their conversations private. A recent Common Sense Media (leading independent non-profit organization dedicated to empowering kids to thrive in a world of media and technology) review gave Roo Kids 4/5 for Ease of Use and Privacy & Settings. All in all, this app seems to be a win-win for everyone involved. Gungroo Software, the makers of Roo Kids, are now seeking funds to take the initiative to the next level, including a full COPPA compliance and certification for Roo Kids.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 36.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Roo Kids 2.1.7 is Free and available worldwide through the App Store in the Social Networking category. There is also an Android version available on Google Play. The app offers in-app purchases of themes and stickers (for parents only).

Every character has been meticulously created with maximum HP, ATK, RCV & SPD on their cards. This fast-paced puzzle game has all types of heroes, creatures and gods, including the Basilisk and Daedelus The Wise. Additional rewards can be won in our PvP and Daily Bonus rounds.

Kowloon, Hong Kong - Crystal Crusader by Hong Kong-based game developers Dim Sum Lab has been released just in time for Spring. The game calls on players to connect crystals, make shapes, and ultimately, battle the warlords of Planet O with a personalised team of heroic creatures. Crystal Crusader has over 100 levels and characters for your enjoyment, with the supplementary feature of PvP if you want to flaunt your deck in front of other players.

Crystal Crusader is unlike anything that the Dim Sum Lab team has ever attempted, scrapping their usual simple one-gesture games for a whole new world of puzzle and fantasy. Every character has been meticulously created with maximum HP, ATK, RCV and SPD on their cards. Characters also have combo skills when you connect the crystals in certain shapes - for instance, diamonds, crosses, and simple squares. If they are chosen as the leader of your team, they host leader skills that can benefit the entire team in battle.

As one example, the Legendary Starter character, Fire King Aviur, is the final evolution of the starter character, Aviur. The backstory begins with Aviur, who was a hot-headed, handsome young prince in Planet O, before he finally managed to temper his hellish fits of rage. As a Fire King, his max HP is a whopping 1,383. When he assumes leadership in battle, many minions of the fire element have spoken of Aviur's ability to bring forth an irreversible fever within their hearts and minds... Stats-wise, we're talking a max ATK of 920 and his Roaring Flame III leader skill with a 200% fire attack! In Crystal Crusader, we have hundreds and hundreds of characters with similarly complex backgrounds and statistics for you to enjoy.

Five element zones with over 100 challenging levels:
* Planet O is divided into Earth, Fire, Water, Dark and Light zones. You can access any zone to start new missions and work your way around the ring planet.

Features:
* Loads of rare items and creatures with every Boss win (stones, gears, swords and orbs) used to either level-up or evolve your characters
* Hundreds of creatures with compelling backstories
* PvP mode to battle online with customisable teams
* In-app purchases and an online forum

"Crystal Crusader was a beast of a project, but we really wanted to push ourselves." explained Peter King Yiu Wong, Managing Director of Hong Kong based Dim Sum Lab Ltd. "We hope our efforts have shown what an indie game development company in Hong Kong is capable of. We make games that we want to play, and I think our fanbase appreciates how much heart we put into the games, the characters, and their stories."

Dim Sum Lab is a mobile app company with a few gaming titles to its name, including Dim Sum Story, Dim Sum Dash, and Zombie Redrum. The company relies on the creative talent and animations from idNerd Studios, its partner company. In the last six months, Dim Sum Lab has put more emphasis on garnering local support for the game and the brand, with month-long beta testing and social media campaigns. We urge fans to join the Dim Sum Lab Facebook for the latest news in technology, as well as "doodles" made by the Dim Sum Lab team on cultural and political affairs mostly from Hong Kong. Additionally, Facebook has been our focal point for introducing the backstory of Crystal Crusader heroes and foes.

WatchMagic is the Apple Watch App You Should Get But Not Talk About - Published on 04/23/15

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Usually app developers want people to talk about their new apps, but WatchMagic from No Tie Software is the exception. The Apple Watch plays a special role in the trick so good magicians should not reveal the secret! A user is asked to select a card using an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. First, they select the suit (Hearts, Diamonds, etc.) and then the number. Their card is then displayed and they are asked to focus on their choice. Magically, the magician guesses the card within seconds!

Rochester, New York - Arthur C. Clarke, author of 2001: A Space Odyssey observed "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." The magical Apple Watch could fall under that category, which prompted No Tie Software to develop a magic trick app that leverages the Apple Watch!

Usually app developers want people to talk about their new apps, but WatchMagic from No Tie Software is the exception. The Apple Watch plays a special role in the trick, so good magicians should not reveal the secret! A user is asked to select a card using an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. First, they select the suit (Hearts, Diamonds, etc.) and then the number. Their card is then displayed and they are asked to focus on their choice. Magically, the magician guesses the card within seconds!

As with all good tricks, there are a couple of ways the trick is performed, so the audience can't be sure how it is done. Penn and Teller are experts at this. A magician should always leave them guessing and wanting more! WatchMagic can be played up close or on stage. WatchMagic could even help win a bar bet!

An Apple Watch is not required, but it makes the trick better if the magician has one. At only $0.99 for the WatchMagic app, by placing a bar bet, not only could the magician easily pay for the app, WatchMagic could even pay for the watch, too!

The card trick is just the first trick in the WatchMagic bag of tricks. Users of the app are encouraged to suggest more watch-based tricks and look for them in free updates to the WatchMagic app!

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* iOS 8.2 or later
* Optimized for iPhone 5, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus
* 69.7 MB

Pricing and Availability:
WatchMagic v1.0 for iOS and Apple Watch is available for $0.99 worldwide exclusively through the iTunes App Store in the Entertainment category.

Based in Rochester, New York, NoTie creates clever and useful apps, such as text-to-speech talking caller iD ringtones as well as a talking soundboard for kids with Autism and other non-verbal users. Our team picked the company name because we are determined to never have to wear a tie for work again. Also, ties represent form over function. We believe apps should be designed to be usable, quickly and easily, without unnecessary frills. Copyright (C) 2015 No Tie, LLC. All Rights Reserved.
