5A sailing and motorboat simulator for your Bada handset
Little Sailor Review
by on January 6, 2011
Little Sailor is another prize-winning app and won the Grand Prize in Samsung’s Global Developer Challenge for Bada apps.
Little Sailor is a sailing and motorboat simulator where you can learn the basics of sailing and compete against up to six virtual competitors in a yacht race – there’s even a demo mode to get you started. And it’s actually pretty good!
You can see how wind force affects your sail and learn how to trim the sails to make the most use of the wind around your boat. There’s a lot here and we love it – you can sail downwind and upwind, tacking and gybing as well as learn about (not) capsizing as well as navigation and race strategy. You can even change the weather conditions you experience to make the experience as close to the real thing as possible.
And what we like about it most is that there’s plenty here for beginners too. Fantastic stuff. The makers of the app recommend your upgrade the firmware on your phone to the most recent version before running the app as older firmware may cause problems and your handset may stop responding.

Ragdoll Blaster 3
The iOS equivalent of a plain cheese sandwich: does the job, but it won't linger in the memory afterwards.

One for those with a careless bent, and perfect for when you want to play a game but not do any thinking.

Pulse: Volume One
Stylish, absorbing and challenging, but needs Game Center support and an injection of longevity and jolly.

Procreate
Some hugely impressive tools and an interface ideal for artists make this a great painting app.

Difficult to set up, but once you’ve got it working, it offers a great range of print options.

pxl.
The interface feels a bit out of place on iOS, but it’s a fun app, and produces interesting results.
Puzzlejuice
Absurdly challenging, sometimes brutal, but frequently brilliant (especially on the iPad); just be aware of what you’re letting yourself in for. (Sob.)
