It's Thursday : Weekly App Selection 05 by PhonAsia

Let's start with 2 games this week.

Army Truck Driver (Free)





Army Truck Driver looks like a lot Trackmania. There are currently 2 racetracks in which you need to collect every available ammo and 3 stars to get the max score.
The racetracks are really well designed with crazy curves, uphills and downhills "roads" (you will see that there will not often be standards roads out there).
Yes, you will drive a truck but the physic is much more like a very light kart, you will need to drive carefully if you do not want to get a reverse truck (very easily done).
It took me almost 45 minutes to get access to the second racetrack without 100% completing the first one. Every racetrack try is about 2 minutes length, so it is a nice fail and learn game which is free.

Star Wars : Force Collection (Free)

This is the official Star Wars Card Games made by Konami. It is a very classic card games, no innovations whatsoever. You collect cards, form a deck, make a card formation during your turn then the battles happen.
It is pure fan service app and it is targeted towards Star Wars fans since getting famous characters cards with insightful informations is the most valuable aspect of the game. 
Unfortunately for me, I am a Star Wars fan, the game would have been fine but there are still so many loads time related to the network crippling the game that it can spoil the whole experience for you. 
Anyway, feel free to try and give us your feedback.

Misc Apps

TuneIn Radio (Free)

Tunein Radio is the ultimate radio app that broadcast channels through your data network (either your data plan of via Wi-Fi). Search a song and find which radio is playing this song, search you favorite channels or just browse the channel list. 
It is easy, it is free and if you do not have a built in Tuner FM, then this is a must have app.

Vine (Free)

If you do not know about Vine, now it the time to really read this and download right away this app. Vine is the official built in video service of Twitter. It allows you to make up to 6 secs mini-movies and share them on Twitter.
The video format is ideal for the intended service and align itself with the 140 characters limit.

Comic Rack (Free)

Comic Rack is the best comic reader out there. I have been using this app all holidays long and if you are a comics fan, it definitively should be your app. 
It is smartphones and tablets optimized and adjust to every screen size. It supports CBZ and CBR natively.
It can synchronize to the Comic Rack PC software (itunes like) and download all the comics from your desktop into your device. Plus, after the synchronization, you will add CB7, CBT, PDF, DJVU and WebComics support on top of the 2 native format. 
A paid version exits too at 5.99 €, it removes all the ads and adds a wireless synchronization with the PC Comic Rack software.
