Fliparoni is the first real time Video Puzzle for the iPhone and iPod Touch. ** Current version has problem loading photo album pictures with latest OS) Update in progress. ** iPhone Games Network - Editor's Choice review. "Very rarely will I give a game a perfect score for game life, but Fliparoni does everything right." The Free App Store Review - 5 Stars It is a unique, challenging and addictive game even if you’re not into puzzles. Select one of the many video clips provided (almost 40 available with more on the way). The clips are a mixture of action, nature, music videos, people and abstract. Fun for the whole family. You reassemble the scrambled pieces while the images are changing in real time. Not only are the pieces shuffled but they may also be flipped upside down, left to right and/or rotated. Please see the video at the website to see the game in action. You determine the complexity of the puzzle by selecting a still or moving clip and by setting the preference options. Work on a relaxing puzzle while you play your music in the background or make it as difficult as possible and race the clock. It is up to you. Top 10 scores are recorded along with the image and settings. Swipe your finger over a piece to flip it right side up, left to right or swipe a corner to rotate a piece. Touch and drag to move a piece. (NOTE: This is NOT a slider game. You are free to move any piece, anywhere) The game includes a variety of special video clips. Over 20 clips included with more than 20 more available for download.

Please feel send in suggestions and any problems. [Thanks for the reviews coming. If you want more videos make sure to use the download option. For hard puzzles try the nebulous shapes, the bouncing squares, bubbles (download) or the goldfish. For anyone who has questions or problems please visit the website. There's a full Getting Started guide as well as a problem solving area. You can also email a me using the link on the website or the Instruction view in Fliparoni. If you've found a bug please send it in since that's a faster fix for both you and me than just posting on a review] PLEASE NOTE: As a developer I have NO access to any videos on your iPhone or Touch.

Hello! If you're reading this you either really love Puzzmo or you are somehow undecided about our app. Let's be clear: you should download the app. We made it for you and it's free and it's really good! What do you have to lose? Puzzmo is the center of the puzzle universe. You'll find fresh original games by brilliant designers like Zach Gage and new daily puzzles for modern classics like Cross|word, SpellTower, Flipart, Typeshift, Pile-Up Poker, Memoku, and more. You'll also find a little puzzle at the bottom of this AppStore description. Go on, scroll to the bottom. NEW: MEMOKU Inspired by the classic memory game, Memoku invites you to match pairs of numbers, but there's a twist – like Sudoku, no number can appear in the same row, column, or box twice. BONGO Bongo challenges you to build a better board out of twenty five tiles, often picked on a theme by Puzzmo's friends, community members, and celebrity guests. There’s always a better board. PILE-UP POKER Pile-Up Poker is a twist on traditional poker where players build rows and columns of poker hands. The objective is to create the highest overall score by adding cards one by one to the gird, making strategic decisions along the way. FLIPART Flipart is a modern twist on digital jigsaw puzzles. This free daily puzzle challenges you to rearrange Tetris-like shapes by tapping the pivot points so that none of the shapes overlap and they all fit within the border. Flipart puzzles are enjoyable for kids and adults alike! TYPESHIFT Typeshift is our free, daily captivating word puzzle game that challenges your vocabulary, spatial reasoning, and wit. Solve puzzles by shifting columns of letters like a combination lock to form words. Each puzzle is a fun brain-teaser chock full of both word search and strategy. CROSS|WORD Puzzmo crossword puzzles are for everyone. Some of the world’s top solvers compete daily for the fastest solve on Puzzmo, but that doesn’t mean we’re here to stump you. In fact if you’re new to crosswords or struggling complete a grid, we’re here to help. Only Puzzmo crosswords offer an optional, easier hint with every single clue. CUBECLEAR Cube Clear is a word puzzle game where players spell words in a grid whose letters then disappear. Longer words score higher points, and adjacent tiles disappear after use, causing remaining tiles to tumble to the bottom of the grid. With only 36 letters, the challenge of Cube Clear is two-fold. Can you clear the board, and in how few words? WORDBIND Wordbind is a directional anagram game that challenges you to discover new words hidden within the chosen words of the day. You can only key in letters from left to right, you’re allowed to skip letters, and you can use the same letter twice to find the perfect word. With each word you find, you rise the ranks on your way to Luminary status. REALLY BAD CHESS Aside from the small advantage white gains by making the first move, chess is a battle of wits between two competitors with the same pieces in the same positions. Puzzmo’s free daily Really Bad Chess game turns all of that “fairness” on its head. For example, you might have a huge material advantage with three queens while your computer opponent might have no queens and five rooks. The pieces may look random, but your advantage is carefully calculated! SPELLTOWER SpellTower is a two-dimensional grid of letters that looks like your typical word search puzzle. But unlike a traditional word search, you can change directions, cross your own path, go diagonal, and even spell backwards! This freedom of movement allows you to find more complex and challenging words, but this isn’t the only twist with SpellTower. As you use letters, they disappear from the grid, with the ultimate goal being a perfect, total clear of the entire board. You found it! If you can solve this classic riddle, enter the answer at puzzmo.com/code "Forward I’m heavy, backwards I’m not. What word am I?" Happy puzzling!
