Just in Time for Christmas, the Grinchmas iPhone/iPod Touch App

Just in Time for Christmas, the Grinchmas iPhone/iPod Touch App

Here are a couple of fun holiday iPhone/iPod touch apps created by Oceanhouse Media! Grinchmas, a casual, light-hearted snowball and present-throwing game, is now available in the App Store for $1.99, in addition to Dr. Seuss Camera – The Grinch Edition, a unique and whimsical greeting card maker now available for only $2.99.

I was lucky enough to try both of these apps and they are so fun! The Grinchmas app is a fun, casual game in which players assume the role of the Grinch perched atop Mount Crumpit. By swiping across the multi-touch screen, players throw either snowballs or presents down to Who-ville, depending on whether they feel “mean” or “merry.” Grinchmas features fun, colorful graphics that mirror the timeless style of How The Grinch Stole Christmas! Accuracy and quantity of successful throws determine the player’s score.

The Dr. Seuss Camera – The Grinch Edition app for the iPhone is now available in the Photography category and allows users to create festive “Grinchmas Cards” using the iPhone’s built-in camera. Players can pose with characters or choose to become the Grinch, his faithful four-legged friend Max, or even the adorable little Cindy-Lou Who. Cards can be personalized with comical and colorful stamps, borders and classic Seussian text. Grinchmas Cards can be e-mailed to friends and family or saved to the Photo Library. My daughter got some good laughs taking pictures of her brother with a Grinch Theme!
