A Color Story – A Color Story LLC – Free – IAPs – The more visually astute among us will love this app. Actually, everyone who likes robust vibrant images and photos will love it.

Rather than forcing you into a single look, the app has: over 100 carefully crafted filters, incl. purchases; over 40 movable effects, incl. purchases; over 20 FREE tools, including curves; custom filters saved from your editing steps; NEW!

Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen – NutritionFacts.org – Free – If you’re like us you’d like to be on this planet as long as possible. While we can’t do anything about some everyday risks, we can definitely choose a more healthy lifestyle. This app can be a part of that effort. Here’s what the developer says “Keep track of the foods that Dr. Greger recommends in his new book How Not to Die.

In the years of research required to create the more than a thousand evidence-based videos on NutritionFacts.org, Michael Greger, MD, FACLM, has arrived at a list of what he considers the most important foods to include in a healthy daily diet. Yes, greens are good for you, but how much should we try to eat each day? Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen details the healthiest foods and how many servings of each we should try to check off every day.”

Here are the 5 “Game of the Day” apps selected by Apple for the week of March 5th, 2018. We are listing these apps as a service to our readers. While we have not independently reviewed them, we hope you find this list useful and interesting.

Snakebird – Noumenon Games – Free – IAPs – If you enjoy different kinds of puzzles you should definitely download this one. According to the developer “Snakebird is a very simple but deceptively challenging puzzle game about assuming the right shapes for the task at hand, be it pushing, lifting, teleporting or just defying the laws of physics.”

“What is the longest possible length a bird can be? Obviously a question only all the fruit in the world can answer! But where could all this fruit be hiding? Follow Redbird, Greenbird and Bluebird on a quest for an amount of fruit beyond any birds wildest dreams.”

The Executive – Riverman Media LLC – $2.99 – This is a fun action game with an interesting twist. A suit-wearing executive is the martial arts expert trying to defeat the bad guys. Plus the developer guarantees no ads and all updates are included in the download fee. We like that.

“The Executive combines a high-speed combat system, timing-based running and platforming, 120 hand-crafted levels, a full inventory of moves and upgrades, and a simple mining company simulation for earning money, all into one cohesive experience. The fighting engine evokes a cross between Street Fighter II and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, with controls designed from scratch to be ideal for touch screens.”

The Sims™ Mobile – Electronic Arts – Free – IAPs – You know the Sims franchise so you either love it or you don’t. If you do, this is an excellent addition that you’re sure to enjoy. “Express your creativity as you customize your Sims’ distinct appearances and unique personalities, giving them traits and having fun with fashion and hairstyles.”

“Effortlessly build your Sims the perfect home, choosing favorite designs and décor, with more detail than ever before on mobile. Experience the rich and entertaining moments of your Sims’ lives as they accomplish career goals, pursue hobbies, develop relationships, and improve their Lifestyle. Party with friends, fall in love, and establish a legacy.”

The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands – Xigma Games – $3.99 – Role playing games are one the most exciting genres of gaming. When done right they offer not just great entertainment but also interesting and complex problem solving challenges. This one is done right. “Build, discover, craft and survive.”

“Build your settlement in a snowy encampment and manage workers and resource to survive monster attacks during nights. Slowly you will gain access to advanced buildings and crafting options, discover and trade with new civilizations and discover the secrets of the ancients.”

Dawn of the Titans – NaturalMotion – Free – IAPs – This is billed as an epic war strategy game and we completely agree. Some of us have put quite a bit of time (too much?) into it and have become quite addicted to it. The real-time battle gameplay is just one the very cool features that sets this one apart from the hoard of boring copies. “Dawn of Titans begins a new era for Action Strategy, with console-quality graphics and ultra-addictive gameplay.”

“Battle COLOSSAL TITANS and THOUSANDS OF WARRIORS in monumental wars, all under your CONTROL. CAPTURE enemy lands, grow your ARMY, and come to FIGHT, because in Dawn of Titans you either GO BIG or you GO HOME! Join your friends and PLAY FOR FREE! In the most massive ACTION-STRATEGY game on mobile!”
