iPhone game reviews

-Family Feud - I like and recommend, it's just hard to type fast enough. 

-Solitaire TriPeaks Card Game - I'm shocked at how fun this solitaire game is but the competition when you're in a group or club is stupid. People have rules like you can't go longer than 20 hours without playing. 

-Brick Out - Shoot the ball / Bricks n Balls - the monotony and chance of these games is entertaining for some reason.  

-Doorman Story - This is a "Diner Dash" type of game but with hotels. It's fun for a while, but eventually it gets crazy and pretty much impossible without paying real money. 

-Lily's Garden: Design and Relax - It's a mix between candy crush where you mix colored tiles, and a decorating type of game. It has a good story line behind it that makes you want to see what happens next and improve the place and explore new places, but it just takes a really long time to do anything eventually. 

-Tetris - I like the ones where you compete against someone live time and clearing more than two lines at a time sends the other player an extra line. But I go as fast as I can and lose most of them, so I don't understand people's speed with it.

-Snaker.io - This game is really fun!! Although I think you're playing against bots instead of real people. The only thing is, eventually I figured out a way to almost win the whole thing by just going in circles really close to yourself so that no one can get inside of your circle and eventually you keep getting bigger and nobody can hit you. 

-Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp - Nope. It got really boring and repetitive, and the furniture wasn't that great and I couldn't organize things to make it look nice, and quickly ran out of room. It was a cool idea though and I like the RVs. 

-Paper.io - this game is so great!! You are trying to make your color bigger than everybody else's and not let anybody else steal your color too, and not get hit at the same time. Again, if you go in circles it's helpful, as well as staying near the edges of the map so that nobody gets passed. If you get good at it though, each game is REALLY long. 

-Harry Potter: Wizards Unite (Like Pokemon Go)  - I hated it. I don't "go" anywhere enough to get cool stuff. 

-Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery - It was really boring. You just tap a lot and run out of energy a lot. 

-Idle Miner Tycoon: Gold and Cash - A lot of the "Idle" games are fun to me, but this one a lot more so because it seems to be never ending, and while you aren't playing the miner people keep getting more, and when you come back you have a lot more to do. Some idle games cap out at a certain number and then it's not much fun. It honestly sounds stupid when you first play, but for me it was entertaining. 

-Candy Crush Friends Saga / Soda - I was overly obsessed with this game for too long - not only enjoying it and needing to keep going, but also competing against friends. I started actually paying money to skip levels I was stuck on or get boosts, and it got to be ridiculous so I never want to play them again. 

-Hole.io - This game also sounds stupid - you're a "hole" trying to swallow up surrounding things on a map, and the more that falls in, the bigger you get. If you get swallowed by another hole you die. You want to be last alive or the biggest in size. You start to learn patterns of where is best to start that has a lot of small things that eventually gets you bigger faster. 

-Sims - there are two sims apps - I hate both of them. Haha. At the moment I can't even remember why.

-Super Mario Run - When this first came out I loved it!! You have to know the right ways to jump and how long to hold down a jump...it was a strategy not to get hit or to get the highest points. It was fun until I mastered some and then couldn't even complete some levels. 

-The Trail - This is similar to The Oregon Trail. You're a person walking though, and you pick up things as you walk. You stop at the end of each walk at a campfire to trade things with real people, or sell things, and eventually you have a house. You create / craft things, need new clothes as they wear out, and need food. The scenery changes all the time and it's a pretty game. Again, I became addicted to this game so I had to delete it. I couldn't play it in moderation. 

-Hungry Shark World - I can't explain how stupid / weird this game is (you eat people along with other fish) but also entertaining at the same time. It just is.
