You want to know what will the new year bring? Then this app is exactly right! The pouring of lead is an old tradition that was used by the ancient Romans to predict the future: A piece of lead is melted in a spoon (by holding a flame under the spoon) and then poured into a bowl of cold water. It immediately solidifies and forms strange shapes. The interpretation of these shapes is very exciting and makes a lot of fun together with friends. Maybe a new love is coming up if you see a kissing couple or a long journey, if you recognize a ship. Let's surprise and your imagination run wild! Unique: Real random shapes. You get a one of a kind shape at every pouring. It is up to you to interpret these shapes - that's the real fun ... Send your poured lead to your friends via mail or take a screenshot (home button + off switch simultaneously pressed) for the photo album. If you run out of ideas for an interpretation, the integrated lexicon helps.
