Save Thousands With Great Deals on Popular Games and Apps




In our new weekly series we handpick the best deals going around on apps and games on various platforms. The opening edition features some top-rates games and utilities that can potentially save you thousands of rupees. So without further delay, here's the list. 
1. PDF Forms
Free for just a day, this app is great if you deal with a lot of documents. You can fill forms, add remarks and even sign and share documents, right from your iPad. The app also comes with Dropbox and Google Drive integration, and AirPrint support for printing straight from your iPhone or iPad. Usually Rs. 550, downloading PDF Forms is a no brainer while it's free.

Download: iOS (Free, usually Rs. 550)
2. Rayman Fiesta Run
The auto-runner genre of games is pretty crowded, but Rayman comes from excellent pedigree, and Rayman Fiesta Run is beautiful to look at, and sounds amazing too. The controls are tight, and if you're gunning for high scores, it can be incredibly frustrating - but it's still easy to learn and accessible even for casual gamers. Usually Rs. 180 on Apple's App Store, the game is currently available at Rs. 60. Rayman Fiesta Run is also available on Google Play but no discount for Android yet.

3. All SNK Games
SNK is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the King of Fighters series, and all games from the company are being discounted to Rs. 60 each. Most of the games in the catalogue were earlier priced at Rs. 240, so you could pick up all four Metal Slug games for the price of one.

You can see all the games on the developer page for both Android and iOS.
While we have not played all the games on the list on mobile devices, these are faithful ports of amazing classic games. We can state from experience that the Metal Slug games are value for money. The virtual controls can be a little fiddly, but it's still well worth experiencing these apps if you enjoy retro gaming at all.
Download: iOSAndroid (Rs. 60 each)
4. Table Tennis Touch
This iPhone and iPad game is available now at Rs. 60 but normally sells for Rs. 240. The game is exceedingly well made, and the smooth and enjoyable gameplay is only matched by the crisp visuals. It is worth recommending even at the full price, so it makes no sense to miss out on it while it's on sale.

The only problem is that the game is fairly demanding, and so won't run on an iPad 1, iPhone 4 or older, or iPod Touch 4th generation or older. If you have a newer device though, there should be no problem.

Download: iOS (Rs. 60, usually Rs. 240)
5. VVVVVV
One of the most punishingly difficult platformers available on Android and iOS, VVVVVV is an amazing experience that looks stylishly retro and plays with razor sharp perfection, even on a touchscreen. The game usually sells at Rs. 180 but iOS users can get it right now at just Rs. 60. No discount for Android right now though.

6. Swype
The original swiping keyboard, Swype is usually priced at $3.99 (approximately Rs. 240) but Android users can get it for a promotional price of Rs. 60 right now. These day, the swipe to type functionality comes built in so paying for Swype seems needless, but having used the app, we have to say that it offers more customisation, and seems to work faster and more accurately. Rs. 60 is not an unfair price and we'd recommend it.


Download: Android (Rs. 60, usually Rs. 240)
7. Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock
We bought this app at full price to try it out because the premise made us curious, and we thought it was definitely worth the price. Sleep Cycle alarm clock is an interesting app that measures the quality of your sleep, and will wake you up when it sees that you're in your lightest sleep phase, so that you wake up easily, feeling fresh. It also measures metrics of your sleep and helps you track the quality of your sleep over time.

It sounds like a lot of mumbo jumbo, but experimenting with the app proved that it really works. You need to run the app and then just place the phone near your pillow, and it will track your movement through the night to measure the quality of your sleep.
The app is currently at 50 percent off on iOS and we'd strongly recommend it at Rs. 60. The app is also available for Android but costs Rs. 99 here, still a great price.
Download: iOS (Rs. 60, usually Rs. 120), Android (Rs. 99)
