Mr. HAND – The Hand Who Loved Me (iPhone)
Oct 29th
For a while last night I was so tired that playing anything that required pressing the screen seemed like too much effort, so I started up Mr. Hand, where you only have to tilt the device left and right to move. Nice and simple and good for tired brains.
As a bonus, it woke me up enough to play other games and I got myself a new high score. Still a long way off the global top ten, though.
I don’t know if this is still free, but it was when I got it. A lot of free games – and a few I’ve paid for – get deleted from my iPhone after a day or two, but this seems to be standing the test of time pretty well.

Not another vertically-scrolling Bond-themed, hand ‘em up! Haven’t we had enough of them already?
What?
Oh.
Well, this game was free last night, so I grabbed it.
You fly up the level, tilting left and right, trying to hit hands that you can beat and and avoid hands that will beat you.
It’s good fun, it works, but I didn’t feel that it had that special something that keeps you coming back to simple games like this. I’ll play it some more, though, and see if my opinion changes – these are very much first impressions.
Anyway, if it’s still free, go get it. Presentation-wise, you’ve never quite seen anything like it.
