Read full description

A true 8bit classic top down shooter originally released in 1985 by Jon Williams and with kind permission re-written for your enjoyment. This re-make sticks closely to the original game we all knew and loved: Using the quick firing terror tank you must penetrate the city of the Berks and collect 21 keys, all of which are heavily entombed in heavy building blocks. Once these have been collected, you gain access to the Inner Sanctum. Your task goes on - blasting your way to 4 more keys you may enter the Heart of the Inner Sanctum. Once inside, 10 more keys must be collected before you gain entry into the Berks' Sacred Treasure Chamber. This treasure must be recovered before you can complete your task. The Berks are after you, the Drones are after you, even the protective blocks will destroy you on impact. You are given 5 lives, you can gain extra lives up to a maximum of 9, by recovering the hearts scattered around the City. Extra Information: Play left or right handed, your first touch becomes your direction control and your second touch activates your blaster. You terror tank remains stationary whilst firing and you can direct your blaster with the first touch.

About

Typing Number Game

Read full description

This is a modest, unknown game that has only been downloaded by 47 people worldwide and has zero ratings. (As of October 6, 2025) But there is one thing to be proud of: The fact that only one person has deleted the game since its release... Although this result does not translate to a rating on the App Store, I consider it to mean that 46 out of 47 people rated it as fun. As you may know, the competition for apps is fierce, and considering the reality that apps are quickly deleted if they are deemed boring or unnecessary by users, this game's survival rate is astonishing. This result is a great encouragement for app developers. But on the other hand, app developers also want my app to be more highly rated and played more often. A game rated by 98% of people... Interested? Why not give it a try? This is a typing game consisting only of numbers. Find the gray number from a list of four numbers and enter it. When all four numbers are gone, a new number will appear. The faster you enter the numbers, the higher your score. If you can't enter the numbers within the time limit, the game is over. There are no complicated rules, so this is a game you can enjoy without worrying about your mind.
