Itās Labor Day weekend in the U.S., a time for sitting around reflecting on all things labor-related and the contributions workers have made to our country. Contributions like sitting on the can at work playing some gaming apps instead of working. Games like this weekās five Gaming Apps of the Day!
I realize itās hard to find time to play mobile games while you arenāt working, but this weekās crop is definitely worth your free time. Weāve got an innovative Windows Phone shooter thatās only two years late (they were probably busy playing gaming apps), a hilarious pixelated adventure game, a brain-splitting puzzle game, a fantasy RPG runner, and a game that makes you bash an old woman through brick walls.
If those five titles donāt encompass the spirit of the American worker, than I donāt know what does (I donāt know what does).
If you have a suggestion for an app for the iPhone, iPad, Android or Windows Phone 7 that youād like to see highlighted, let us know.

Sorry. Maybe next week. MoreĀ Ā»

Do yourself a favor: play some levels before you read the help in McPixel. You may not know what to do at first when the point-and-click game by indie developer Mikolaj āSosā Kaminski starts up. Thatās okay. Youāll probably wind up triggering something very funny. Like kicking everyone in the junk. MoreĀ Ā»

I was having a fun time hustling through this dungeon, darting left, sliding, slicing up a gelatinous cube, picking up loot, when suddenly I turned splat into the wall. Thatās a fitting metaphor for One Epic Knight, too. MoreĀ Ā»
