Continuity 2 looks very different from other iPhone, ipad games. Apple is bringing the series out of the free-to-play Flash realm and onto iOS devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) as a universal app with a $0.99 price tag. Continuity 2 for iPhone and iPad has 50 levels, divided into 6 worlds. You re-arrange a video game level to enable your character to find the key and open the red door. At different levels the character has to take electric wires to connect, which makes the game more challenging. With the moving puzzle pieces in the touch screen interface unlike the first, Continuity 2 is easier to play. The game’s gravity is mechanized to change with flipping the device upside down or from side to side. The game can be played on any iOS device.
MyLine is a personal timeliner of all the Facebook history, along with graphics, maps and social feed. You can have a look at your status, pictures, check-ins and attended events in the past and present. It comes with two unique models to experience Facebook in iPad — Past and Present. The display is broken down in all categories including status updates, photos, check-ins and more. You can also like or comment on your friends' posts using MyLine's interface.
Skin Scan is a clinical app that scans skin lesions, takes pictures of them, measures the diameter, and uses an algorithm to determine the likelihood of melanoma. The $4.99 app is a must have for hypochondriacs, but could also prove valuable for anyone who is insecure about a mole, but not insecure enough to pay for a doctor's appointment.
Yamaha's Tenori-On is a grid-based music machine which can produce 16 types of sounds at the same time, and it can remember up to 16 song patterns produced using those sounds. The instrument maker says that the app, TNR-i, is a faithful duplication of the facilities, design and interface of the pioneering Tenori virtual instrument, which consists of a screen, with 16x16 grid of LED switches, which can be activated to create sounds. You can arrange the music time-wise and also in different notes by pressing circles.
