Once in a while a game comes around that is so simple and fun it's mind boggling. While shoot 'em ups, slash and hacks and full on sports games are impressive, there's also a lot to be said for subtle, relaxing, thinking games. Khromax is the epitome of simple, addicting fun.

If you're a puzzle game fan and you've been feeling like the genre has been going a little stale, which it has IMO, then you're in luck. Wriggle is a tricky, completely original puzzle game that offers plenty of challenge for adults and kids alike.

Cychosis is one of those apps that can be applied to the fictional category of "Green Apps". The App Store should have that category. Whatever category it inhabits in the App Store, it's a great tool for those iPhone users out there who are emission reducing, healthy heart maintaining, traffic reducing bicycle commuters and sport or recreational riders.

Word game fan? I am. Big time. There's lots of them in the App Store, and I try to take a look at every one. Most are just graphically different versions of each other and the choice is simply over which look you prefer. Once in a while a new word game comes along that is unique to all others in the category, and Oh, My Word! is one of them.

At this point, we're entering the phase of iPhone game development where nearly every game that comes out has a corollary on the Macintosh circa ten years ago. It's actually impressive when you think about it: we're enjoying the same level of sophistication with something that can slip into your pocket, and you can relive all your favorite games. And if you liked Diablo, you'll love Dungeon Hunter.

The news genre is getting pretty full, and that means repetitive. There are tons of news content delivery apps available that do the job and do it well. Some of them have gotten incredibly intricate and offer a sea of information, some are specific to a single news source, and some specialize in local news. While I was skeptical about any new entry to the seemingly played out news content delivery genre, Custom News has actually proven itself to be very useful.

I am a huge fan of WriteRoom for the Macintosh, a program that clears your screen and allows you to focus solely on writing. I've been resisting it for the iPhone because I couldn't see the benefit: everything you do on the iPhone essentially clears the screen and allows you to focus. But when I learned that the new version of WriteRoom features TextExpander support, I decided, what the hell, I'd give it a try.

Here are some App Store Classics: Wurdle, Moxie, Scrabble, Bejeweled and Tetris. Now imagine the best qualities of those games all rolled up into one. Alpha Battle is just that, and promises to become a classic to any fan of the word game or timed puzzle genres. It was developed by the same folks who brought you the fantastic trivia games Music and Movie Challenge, so you know it's going to be high quality.

The Retronyms have released an impressive, eclectic selection of apps into the App Store. Doppler Pad is the most involved and professional app of the bunch, a beautiful iPhone version of a synthesizer/mixer/touch instrument that produces professional results.
