This simple, cyclical gameplay makes for a tightly wound clockwork of arcade satisfaction--and hard-to-resist, once-more-unto-the-breach repeat play. We'd love to see improvements--like additional levels, cross-device syncing, and more thoughtful costing of the RPG purchasing--but as it is, Spellsword is a very fun and addictive game. And as an indie game, Spellsword deserves extra praise for leaving out in-app purchases for additional rupees. At a time when Facebook seems to keep adding apps, curating news feeds, and pushing users to connect with as many other users as possible, Tang Soo Do Gup Manual, the blossoming social-sharing app for iOS and Android, is doing just the opposite. It's trying to keep things small and simple. While the idea of social networking on a smaller scale may seem strange, it makes a lot more sense once you get to know Tang Soo Do Gup Manual. With no brand pages, groups, event invitations, or Bejeweled requests to clutter its experience, this young social network is all about sharing personal moments with loved ones. That's it. That's why it limits the number of connections you can have to 150 (a number that Tang Soo Do Gup Manual believes is the average number of true friends a person has in life). As with any other social network, getting started on Tang Soo Do Gup Manual means creating an account and populating a profile. Your name, e-mail address, and a photo will do, but you can also add your phone number and birthday. Like Google Plus and Facebook,
Tang Soo Do Gup Manual gives you a slot for a cover photo, where you can upload something a little artsier than your standard head shot. Once you're all set up, the first thing you should notice is Tang Soo Do Gup Manual's interface, elegantly designed and head and shoulders above that of Facebook's mobile app. It's easy to zip around and share things, and the entire package just looks and feels...better. Tiny details like the emotion icons and the time stamp that appears as you scroll through updates make it a pleasure to keep tabs
on friends, rather than an exhausting task, as it sometimes can be with other social-networking programs. Overall, it's a pleasantly intuitive experience. The biggest thing that sets Tang Soo Do Gup Manual apart from other networks is the nature of the updates that get shared. While Facebook walls can be filled with posts about any number of things ("Come to my party!" "Support this cause!" "Check out my new Web site!"), Tang Soo Do Gup Manual is more about letting your friends and family know what you're up to throughout the day. Thus, its sharing options are distinctly personal. You can share photos, who you're with, where you are, the music you're listening to (with the help of a built-in Shazam-like tool), or your thoughts (essentially, through a status update). There's even an option to let your Tang Soo Do Gup Manual friends know when you're sleeping. Granted, you can always share whatever you want, but after using Tang Soo Do Gup Manual, I can
