... an Apps for iPads Review!

Yodel-Oh! by Spinlight Studios, is sure to be an instant hit among the younger gaming-crowd just itching to play like the big guys!  If you are familiar with their other apps, Tally-Tots and Alpha-Tots, both excellent educational apps for having fun, you know the quality built into every one of their applications. Yodel-Oh! is no exception!

While Spinlight’s previous apps are teaching-while-having-fun apps, Yodel-Oh! is meant as pure gaming fun for your kids!  Happy hiker meets the meanest sheep in the mountains in Yodel-Oh!, a family-friendly carnie app great for every age. If you’ve ever thrown a dart, tossed a ball or ringed a bottle at the local county fair, you know the fun of the old-fashioned boardwalk skill games. With Yodel-Oh!, Spinlight Studio is bringing it back, in an app that so faithfully reproduces the old tin-style carnie games that you can almost taste the cotton candy on the tip of your tongue. Or in this case, the strudel!

Stay with us “after the break” for a Yodel-Oh! teaser and more fun!

All the fast-paced Alpine action revolves around Hans, a happy mountain climber with maidens on his mind – and a pack of cheesed-off sheep!  Game play is simple. Hit all the right targets – including RamBam, LambBam and the rest of the bleatin’ clan, to rack up valuable points. Miss them, and Hans takes a few steps up the hill. Nab the high score before Hans takes a header off the cliff and you’ll be crowned the next King of the Alps.

Yodel-Oh! Features:

• Unlock special bonus rounds every 2,500 points
• Earn the high score to be declared the King of the Alps
• Enjoy beautiful graphics optimized for the retina display
• Earn bonus points and multipliers that quickly build your score
• Includes original polka music, yodeling and cheesed off rams

It’s all delivered courtesy of Spinlight, a Top-100 app developer that previously made its name in early education. “With AlphaTots and TallyTots, we taught kids how to count and say their letters. With Yodel-Oh!, we’re going for a much bigger audience,” says Matt Hutton, Partner and Creative Director of Spinlight Studio. “Namely anyone with opposable thumbs.”

While Yodel-Oh! is a “lets forget about learning and have some fun” app it does manage to help youngsters with eye-hand coordination and decision making.  I am just afraid that my ambidextrous 3-year old granddaughter is going to kick my butt!  LOL!

Get Yodel-Oh! for your iPad today… oh, and let your kids actually play once in a while! Yodel-Oh! is available for both the iPad and iPhone.
