Spin first. Decide fast. No setup. Decide Now! Lite is a taste of the original decision wheel: 11 ready-made wheels, zero setup. Open the app, pick a wheel, spin — the argument is over before it starts. WHAT'S ON THE WHEELS • Where should we eat? — the classic • What to watch, who goes first, chore roulette • Random names for class, games and giveaways • Yes or no, for when you just need a push • Workouts, desserts, date nights and more THE HONEST PART (READ THIS BIT) Lite comes with ready-made wheels only. You can spin them, narrow them down and enjoy them — but you can't edit them or create your own. Building custom wheels with your own options is what the full app, Decide Now!, is for. If you install Lite expecting a wheel editor, you'll be grumpy, and we'd rather you weren't. Think of Lite as the test drive: same wheel, same spin, same "the wheel has spoken" moment — with the keys to the factory in the full app. WHAT YOU GET • All the preset wheels, ready in seconds • Not feeling an option? Hide it and spin again — nothing gets deleted • Shake to spin • Color themes, dark mode included • Works completely offline • No ads, no account, no sign-up LIKE IT? GO FULL The full app adds unlimited custom wheels, unlimited options, list import straight from your clipboard, plus export and backup. Still no ads, still no account — on the App Store since 2010. Spin the demo. Keep the habit.

Castlerama takes you on a photorealistic walk through a beautiful, detailed and accurately lit 3D setting. Merging real and imaginary elements, it draws inspiration from the charming town of Assisi, in Italy. You are left to find your own way around by touch and sight alone. Exploring a whole world becomes a matter of lifting your fingers. Our goal? To fool your eyes and brain considering it all real. When you go back with your memory to the day you first opened this Mentalbox, you will think it was you on the cobblestone, you in the alleys, you in the catacombs... While developing Castlerama, we had to face the fact that newer devices such as iPhone4s and iPad2s are very different from their predecessors, iPhone3GSs and iPads, in that the former have twice as much memory. In order to have the app run on all devices, we had to compromise quite a bit, pushing the old devices to their limits (risking crash if other applications are left running) while keeping the new devices well behind their capabilities. Powered by Unreal Engine.
