Amazon’s put together another Free App of the Day Bundle, featuring 26 premium apps being offered for free! While Amazon hasn’t listed a specific expiration date for this bundle, since they’re calling it a “Free App of the Day Bundle” it’s probably safest to assume the included apps are free TODAY ONLY. Be sure to grab the ones you want, quick! The bundle includes such apps as:
Chess and Mate – Premium chess learning program for children and the whole family (5/5 stars, all ages, normally priced at $4.99)
THE CHESS APP FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Prince Kaspar’s castle has many rooms in which the individual chess pieces are introduced. Depending on how much prior knowledge you bring into the chess game, you can have every piece introduced to you at your own pace. Lots of exercises are at your fingertips in which you can directly apply what you’ve learned.
LEARN THE CHESS RULES WITH A DIDACTIC CONCEPT
In addition, you’ll find all possible finesses and secrets in the big chess book in Prince Kaspar’s library such as the pawn fork, the Italian gambit, or the scholar’s mate. Do you know castling or the “en passant” move yet?
Naturally Prince Kaspar is ready to play a round of chess with you at any time. First you have to defeat him, then you’re allowed to also play with Capt’n Black.
TouchDraw (5/5 stars, all ages, normally priced at $8.99)
TouchDraw is a vector 2D drawing and diagramming application for Android.
TouchDraw gives you everything you need to create structured 2D vector graphics such as flow charts, graphs, diagrams, illustrations, logos and floor plans just to name a few. What makes TouchDraw especially valuable is that it allows you to not only create complex graphics, but to change them easily as well.
TouchDraw differs from a paint program in that objects are always managed independently of the drawing they’re in. You can move a figure around, change it’s shape, change it’s color, group it, without affecting other shapes that are around around.
You can easily share drawings with users on other platforms as TouchDraw is also supported on iPad and Macintosh.
