Command killer crustaceans in the new update for Crab War
Crab War from Appxplore gets you do something a bit different – it challenges you to unleash a swarm of crustaceans in a fight against invading reptiles.

You can also develop powerful mutations by shedding your shell (ecdysis), with over 80 crabs to evolve and 30 crab queens to add to your ranks. The newest update to Crab War adds a competitive tournament system too, as well as genetic cus…

Find out what makes Clash of Kings: The West so exciting in our interview with the games developer, Elex Tech
Clash of Kings proved to be a massive commercial success worldwide (50 million downloads on Android alone tells its own story) but for all of the games success it wasn’t without its faults.

Ubisoft’s new social quiz game FaceUp – The Selfie Game released

Online and offline, selfie takers can do battle with each other, as you attempt to guess the other person’s expression. FaceUp tasks you with correctly identifying their friend’s mood or expression - with options ranging from politicians, boxers right up to fish and even spies.

8 ways the iPhone 8 NEEDS to improve
The iPhone 7 has only just been revealed, but as we've already discussed, it's a total mess. So rather than dwell on a low point, let's stay in a positive mood (yay! Sunshine! Puppies! The imminent heat death of the universe!) and look ahead to what can be improved in the iPhone 8. Onwards! 1.

Have some sense, Apple, and put a headphone port back in. 2. Reduce the price of the AirPods £159 / $159. Let that sink in. One hundred and sixty big on…
