subject: The Newest Game Craze [print this page] Even though the smart phone and tablet apps are barely a couple of years old, these mini-programs seem to be evolving faster than any other technology on the market. There are phenomenal apps that can help monitor your eating habits and exercise regimen, monitor your REM cycle, and help you stay connected to your social circles no matter where you go. The mobile app world has also become a platform for the newest innovations in video games, where simple yet highly entertaining programs have become great ways to pass the time. Some of the best and most renowned games are the Angry Birds saga and Fruit Ninja, and now there is a new game that has tech enthusiast buzzing. The game is called Leapin Leprechaun, and it features a smack-talking leprechaun who challenges players to capture his pot of gold.
The objective of the game revolves around hurtling the games lead character, Paddy the leprechaun, through the air just right so he lands in his hidden pot of coins. If the player succeeds, they get to take home the proverbial gold. If they fail, then Paddy hits players with a hilarious retort that rags on their play. Though players will not receive actual cash for gold, early reviews of the game are overwhelmingly positive. The games graphics are being pointed to as one of the major selling points, with developers painstakingly crafting the vibrant colors of the rainbow that Paddy flies on. The game also underwent about nine months of market research in attempt to mimic the market success exhibited by the other formerly successful games in the mobile app industry.
The game was designed primarily for the 7 to 16 year old demographic, but it seems adults are responding with equal enthusiasm. Most users point to Paddys comedic chiding, when players fail, as the games real hook. His pointed insults both motivate players to succeed, so he does not rip them, or fail on purpose, to hear his amusing comments. The game appropriately launched the day before St. Patricks Day and is now available on your smart phone or tablet.
Now that we have seen the angriest of birds, a sword swiping ninja that cuts fruit, and an angry chiding leprechaun, who knows what the next major hit could be? It is great that most applications only cost about a dollar, so you do not have to try and get cash for gold you win from Paddy on the black market just to pay for your next mobile app. If you have not played this awesome new game yet, log on and download it; you certainly will not regret the fun hours spent with a sassy leprechaun.
