Best Android apps reviewed October 1, 2011 – October 31, 2011.
Muffin Knight
Free, $1.99
Muffin Knight is a highly addictive, witty, beautiful and challenging platform game available on Android. Collect muffins as you race around gorgeous ‘almost‘ 3D scenery, shoot a variety of baddies from pigs, goats, sheep, bats and turtles as well as bosses and flying baddies! A brilliant title, Muffin Knight is perhaps one of the very best games available on the platform.
Birzzle
Free
Birzzle is an insanely addictive yet cute as pie puzzle game on Android. Simply line up 3 or more birds of the same color together and watch them pop! The graphics are great; nice and bright, detailed and very cute. The gameplay rocks and has a very high addiction factor. Very similar in feel to popular Android and online games like Chuzzle, Birzzle is a fantastically challenging and fun game for all ages.
TripAdvisor

TripAdvisor is a detailed and comprehensive travel companion app with lots of information about restaurants, places of interest, hotels, flights and more.

HDR Camera+
Free, $3.99
HDR Camera+ is a camera replacement app that takes cool HDR photographs. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, this refers to the creation of greater detail in your pictures, instead of bland-looking light areas and simply black dark areas. It adds detail and realism to shots and has been an adopted technique by professional photographers. The technique requires pictures to be taken that focus on detail within both light and dark areas, before subsequently merging them together in one photograph.

Pigs in Trees
Free
Pigs in Trees is a wonderfully fun game featuring some now quite familiar adversaries. Like Angry Birds, the warring factions are the pigs and the birds, but before you think this is some awful third party spin-off, think again. Pigs in Trees instead puts you on the side of the pigs and you have to defend your tree (this seems perfectly logical in the game) against incoming birds. Blended gameplay, fun graphics and high addictiveness make the game very compelling.
ESPN ScoreCenter
Free
ESPN ScoreCenter is a cool and smooth sports app which provides news feeds, scores, tables, fixtures and video clips. Choose from a range of the most popular world sports: American Football, Ice Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, Football, Rugby and Cricket. The app also lets you follow your favourite teams so finding information on them is easy. Nicely packaged, responsive with great UI and stacks of easy-to-reach information, ESPN ScoreCenter should be of interest to most sports fans.
