Ustyme Review (Tomoson)

I reviewed Ustymeu in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. Ustyme is available for iPad, and PC, laptop via Google Chrome. It also works on Firefox and Opera. It doesn't work on Chrome on my phone or tablet.

Ustyme allows families to connect via video. You can read a book or play a game via video chat. You also can still read the books and games without video. The website/app is free but ut does have premium featues for cost, such as additional books and games.

To use video, you need to send out a friend request and wait for them to accept the request. My brats love the books and I love the games. I have not tried the video feature yet. Just waiting on people to accept requests.

You can try out the app using the link above.

Bingo Bash Review (Blog Dash)

I reviewed Bingo Bash for a campaign on Blog Dash. I am being compensated for this post.

I never heard of Bingo Bash, prior to this campaign. I do love Bingo, at least when I win :-). I havent played Bingo in years on top of years. The last time, I played, I was on a Carnival Cruise. I played the free games, then I left when my free cards ran out. Since I never brought money or spent money on a cruise (with a credit card), I didn't want to run a debt, I could not pay back.

I started playing the game on Facebook, when I read the email from BlogDash. I never heard of Bingo Bash before, but I knew Zynga made a similar game, which I also have not played in a while. I wanted to understand the concept of the game before agreeing to write about it.

I also wanted to know if you needed to buy power-ups or make friends to advance in the game. Next, I wanted to see if the game was energy-driven. Energy-driven to me, means once your energy, or in this case, chips runs out, you can't play until your energy recharges.

In the game, you need red chips. Players receive X amount (depends on level) each day to play. Once your chips run out, you have to wait until the chips reset to play again. You also can earn or buy chips.

The game also allows players to complete collections to earn chips. You earn items for collections during the game. 

Starting the game:

The game starts out with a tutorial, the moves into the real games. In the real games, you choose how many cards you want to play (maximum 4 cards), then wait for the game to start. Each card is worth a X amount of red chips. The beginning rooms use fewer chips, such as the Sphinx Wonder Room (1 chip per card). As you move up in levels, you will need more chips to play a game. The featured rooms also vary in amount of chips to purchase a card. 

Once the game starts, the game starts calling out numbers. The player daubs (selects) the number on the cards, if there is a match. The game also has a window, to the right, which shows all numbers previously called. When you have BINGO, you click the BINGO button at the bottom of the card(s). One round, I completely forgot to mark Bingo because I thought it would do it automatically. Lesson learned. 

You can win multiple bingos per round. 

Each game as a maximum amount of Bingos to win. As people win, the amount goes down. The game also shows winners on the left-hand side. The game also dings (makes a sound) when a BINGO is called.

Once the game reaches MAX Bingos, the round is over. You can buy more cards, if you have enough chips, and play when the round starts. 

Bingo Rooms:

The game features Bingo Rooms. Each room has a different theme. Each game also has a different price to buy cards.  Each room also has different amount of maximum bingos. For example , two of the Wonder rooms are called Palm Island and the Sphinx. The game also has featured rooms such as Lucky and Elemental.

Tournaments:

You can earn gems, playing Bingo, then use the gems to buy tournament chips. Tournament chips are blue chips. You can buy a maximum of 4 cards in tournaments.

Power-ups.

You also can use power-ups to help the game. Some power-ups give you extra chips to play more rounds. Some help you win an automatic bingo, if a certain number is called.

FAQS:

FAQS are provided. The FAQs explains the games and power-ups.

Bingo Bash is available on Facebook, Kindle, Android, and iPhone/iPad.

The When App (Apple App Tomoson)

 I reviewed The When App for iPod for honest review from Tomoson. The app is 1.99 in the iTunes store. The app was easy to use. The app has a picture of a clock. You move your finger to the time, you want to be reminded of, then the app notifies you simple. I used the app a few times before my iPod Touch was dropped in the toilet by my lovely two year old.

The app can be used on iPhones, iPads, and iPods, even the Touches. I enjoyed using the app.

Kids Ipad Case Product Review (Tomoson)

I reviewed the Kids iPad Case, in exchange for review from Tomoson. The product was developed by Apple Pie. The product was made in the USA and is an American Brand. The cases come in two colors: Kraft Brown and White.



Features:

• 100 % Recyclable
• Made out of cardboard
• Comes with a stand to watch movies and type at various angels
• Cheap. 16.99 for a pack of three. If the kids mess it up, you have two more. 
• Aesthetically pleasing and flexible. Able to be customized. Since it comes in a plain color, kids can design the box with colors, paints, stickers, etc. 
• Made in the USA. Go America.

I got the product in the mail on Friday. I had no idea what it was. No promotional material. No instructions. Nothing. I had no idea what it was or what it supposed to do. It was the mystery package. I checked my notes and thought it was the iPad case. I then checked Tomoson and I was correct.
