Apps Gone Free on 3/3 Magic Rockets and More

Wednesday, March 3, 2010

“Great Apps Gone Free” is our daily column that features great and valuable paid apps that have just gone free. They have gone free temporarily because the developers want their apps to get some exposure and user ratings for promotional purposes.

Usually there may be 20 to 50 apps gone free per day. However, many are crappy apps that offer nothing of value. We’ve tested them and filtered out crappy apps from our list so the apps we feature are quality apps that are actually worth your time to download.

But get these apps quickly because most are just free for a limited time. Some apps are free for even less than a day! So don’t be late in getting these premium apps and games for free. Follow us on Twitter or Subscribe by email to get instant daily free app notifications.

Best App of the Day:

Magic Rockets

Magic Rockets $0.99->FREE (App Store)

Magic Rockets plays like 2 games in 1. On one hand, it seemed like your classic pipe dream game. But at the same time, it plays like tetris or match-3 games in which you’ll have to prevent game pieces from reaching the top.

In Magic Rockets, you must connect the pipes to launch rockets before the time is up. If you score high enough, you can then advance to the next level while resetting the timer.

Magic Rockets will take your familiar mini puzzle game into Tetris styled territory that will have you race to launch those rockets before the timer stopped ticking.
