Horsing Around With the My Little Pony iPad Game and Cartoon

PONY_BOXOne of Hasbro’s most popular and well-known toy lines for girls: My Little Pony, has gotten an extra boost in recent years thanks to a fairly new cartoon based on the toys that’s surprisingly a higher quality show than what you may expect (there are reasons for that which we’ll go into later).

Hungry Hungry Hippos (iPad)

HIPPO_BOXTwo of my favorite board games when I was a little kid were Connect Four (pretty sneaky, sis), and Hungry Hungry Hippos. Especially the hippo game because it required no skill to play, and it made a heck of a racket! Later on they made a coin op version of Hungry Hungry Hippos in arcades. The balls automatically came out the middle, the computer would control any empty hippos mechanically, and you could win tickets, too. If I had enough room, I’d be tempted to buy one at an arcade auction. Now the hippos are entering the 21st century with the Hungry Hungry Hippos iPad app, and best of all, it’s TRULY free-to-play! No gimmicks or extra things to buy!

Nanolyte (iPad)

NANOLYTE_BOXIf you like puzzlers and have an iPad or other iOS device, you’re in for a real treat. Nanolyte is a color-matching puzzle game that’s free on the App store. Well, at least it was free when I downloaded it. I know things like that can change at a drop of the hat. But you should check it out anyway. The playfield is full of multicolored hexagons, and you must rotate them to match three in a row. It’s similar to the Xbox LIVE puzzle game Hexic (which is also free).

Little Amazon (iPad)

AMAZON_BOXHelp a little jungle girl break out of a cage and escape evil in this downloadable mobile game for iOS devices. Little Amazon is a continuously running 2-D platformer that’s similar to Jetpack Joyride, without the jetpack of course. When you start, you’ll constantly run to the right. Tap the jump icon to hop over obstacles, and use the attack icon to defeat any evil minions in your way. If you get hit, you’ll get captured and have to start at the cage again. The levels are randomly generated, so each run is different every time.
