Players take the role of Corbee, a young and weedy bee, who starts out convinced that he’s never going to be able to help the worker bees collect all the nectar. After all, he’s only a drone. Thanks to the characterization and hand drawn charm of the game, Corbee is instantly endearing. In his efforts to succeed, he must dodge the dangers of insects, birds, rains and even evil humans. It’s a perilous task but one that’s fortunately made easier with simple to learn controls.
With Captain America set to hit cinemas next week, the time for the movie tie-in game has arrived! Thus arrives Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty, which puts players in control of the First Avenger himself, as he tries to defeat the forces of HYDRA across 24 levels. Captain America apparently has been injected with more than a super-soldier serum, as he can’t…stop…running. He runs left, he runs right, he runs off the walls, he bounces off the walls, he swings from poles, he just doesn’t stop! Well, he only stops when there’s a wall he runs into or an enemy he hasn’t beaten to a pulp; he then beats them to a pulp or throws his shield at them.
The game’s tutorials are absolutely horrid, in that they serve as a major disruption to the pace of the game. It doesn’t help that the game often chugs along, skipping and being unresponsive to commands, even on latest-generation hardware. Combos are often just random to pull off, rather The game is all about making swiping and line-drawing motions, but without any way to see a line trail that is being drawn, it’s difficult to tell what move is being made. The whole game just feels like it’s out of control, and the controls are the game’s greatest challenge, not the levels or enemies. The whole game plays very similarly to 
Readdle has a new app for the iPad to allow users to create PDFs directly on the iPad from a wide variety of souces, entitled PDF Converter. Users can convert documents from Microsoft Office and Apple’s iWork suite directly into PDFs. Web sites can be loaded using the app, and saved as PDF files to be easily read later or saved in a permanent state. Information and photos from a user’s contacts and photo library can be loaded into PDF Converter, and attachments in emails can be easily loaded into it as well. Files can also be loaded from a linked Dropbox account, so they don’t have to be stored directly on the iPad in order to be used with PDF Converter.
Generally, strategy games are hard to fit on the smaller iOS devices, but there are a few types out there whose gameplay elements align particularly well with iOS touch controls; even on the smaller devices. Control Craft is part of one such subset of strategy action games. These games center around control points on a map that must be controlled by the movement of troops or resources from one control point to another. By strategically allocating the right amount of troops to the right control points at the right time and taking over new control points, players build their armies while depleting enemy armies. Some players may recognize this type of gameplay from other games like 
Control Craft is set up on horizontal maps with several different levels, depending on the map. Bases are set up in various positions in each map and the point is for the player to take control of all the bases. Enemy armies are also out to do the same so it is up to the player to attack the enemy controlled bases while simultaneously fending off attacks on their own bases. Each base displays a number that represents the amount of troops currently housed in that base. Moving troops onto an enemy base will deplete the enemy soldiers in that base by the same number of troops moved there. Some bases also include weapon arrays which attack enemies in transit, setting Control Craft apart from some other games in the genre.
