Comet Cowboy is an awesome app to break out when you want to play a game that’s impossible to lose. It’s just plain fun to lasso those asteroids floating around in space and pull them in.

The free version offers 4 levels of play. Check it out, and if you enjoy it, shell out the $3.99 for 30+ levels.

FINALLY. A god blessed cribbage app. What took so long?

Unfortunately it’s EXTREMELY basic. The most basic graphics imaginable. No fancy animation. No skill level choice. No play against another person. No sound.

The game play is fine. I couldn’t really spot any places where I would play much differently than the bot. But no animation means you can’t tell precisely how many points were gained pegging, because the cardplay and peg movements occur at the same time. So while you’re playing the cards you miss the peg advance. But there is a numerical counter.

But all the graphics are incredibly SMALL. Barely readable. It’s hard to tell the difference between clubs and spades, at least to my tired old eyes.

Do you really really need a cribbage game on the phone? Then pay the $5. If you’re indifferent about the game, save your money and wait for a better, slicker, more readable interface.
