3- Crazy Cube games

You probably used to have a plastic cube with little balls in it. In this so called patience games, you have tried to skip balls through different obstacles. I did it by rotating the cube.

Crazy Cube Games is the digital version of this patience game from the Netherlands. Thanks to the gyroscope in your smartphone, you can use movements to pass the levels. As the levels advance, it gets more and more difficult with tricky obstacles and multiple balls. Passing the level is not easy, so be patient.

Do you have a family, do you share a home or are you in a student home with thirteen others? Then the household chores are not always clear and easy to divide. With Sweepy, you can turn it into a competition by tracking everyone’s “cleaning behaviour”.

You link multiple smartphones to an account and everyone gets an automated to-do list. Whoever does the most will be at the top of the ranking. You can also prioritize certain tasks and use widgets to get an overview of your home screen. This way your house will be (hopefully) clean again soon!
