With Elevate You Will Learn Real-World Skills
Elevate is perfect for the person looking to improve themselves and learn very useful skills. For most adults, it’s been a while since they’ve learned listening, writing, speaking, reading, and math skills. But Elevate goes beyond just teaching you statistics or math that you won’t really use in your everyday life.

With Elevate they teach you sum estimate that you can use when calculating the bill at a restaurant without having to reach for your calculator app. And if you want to improve your vocabulary, you’re in luck because Elevate asks you to type in synonyms for words, which really makes you think about words you don’t use frequently.

Tetris Will Improve Spatial Intelligence
You may not think about Tetris making you think because it’s a classic game that’s been around forever. But studies have actually shown that spinning your block to fit the designated shape actually improves spatial intelligence. Even 60% of Tetris players report dreaming about the game, which proves that the brain works out how to beat the game and make sense of it while you sleep.

LG G6

The new LG looks sleek and runs well, thanks to an extra-wide screen and a stunning 5.8-inch display. The slim design keeps it from feeling too bulky. Instead, it’s easy to handle and even water-resistant.  

Google Pixel XL

When you love games — like, really, really love games — you don’t want a screen so small you have to squint. Go big with the Google Pixel XL, a 5.5-inch screen that will take your gaming to the new heights. The longer battery life is a necessary and welcome bonus.

Google Pixel 2

While this smartphone won’t be released until the fall (Google hasn’t shared a date with everyone just yet), you can bet that it will improve upon the already great performance of the original Google Pixel. This time, it’s a safe bet that the new version will be waterproof.

Galaxy S7 Edge

For a big screen that packs a wallop, the Galaxy S7 Edge is a sight to behold. It is 5.5 inches with a 1440 x 2560 pixel display. The battery power is excellent, too — this phone can really hold a charge. A great frame rate makes it awesome for gaming, as it was intended.

OnePlus 3T

This is a gamer’s paradise at a bargain price. You don’t have to have a top of the line smartphone (with a price tag to match) to enjoy your mobile apps. This phone features 10.5 hours of battery life so your gaming doesn’t have to stop. The 5.5-inch AMOLED display looks great, too.

Moto Z Play

This phone has a great battery life. Expect to keep playing long after other phones have drained all their juice. Enhance your phone’s performance with extra gadgets, like the JBL speaker, to get even more out of it (when you aren’t taking on the latest bad guy, of course).

Hungry Shark Evolution

Move your way up the food chain with one of the ocean’s deadliest creatures in Hungry Shark Evolution. Similar to Feeding Frenzy, the player starts out as a small sea critter and eats their way up the food chain. While you start out a small shark in a large ocean, the tables quickly turn as you consume multitudes of prey and grow into one of the fiercest predators in the ocean. Progressing through the game grants you access to bigger and faster sharks, including a Great White Shark.

Sonic Dash

Your favorite hedgehog is back and faster than ever in this Sega classic. Similar to Temple Run, the objective of this game is to run as far as possible without getting caught by your enemies. The more consecutive days you play, the better your rewards get from your daily challenges. You also get fun challenges that you can complete for rewards that will help you in the game.

Stupid Zombies

Not only are these zombies stupid, they’re non aggressive and don’t even move. But, they’re zombies, so I guess it’s cool to kill them. In this game, you stand still as a shooter and you are given a certain amount of bullets for each round. Strategically ricochet your bullets off the walls to strike the zombies. You can also use boxes and explosives to help aid your massacre of the undead.

Ant Smasher

It’s ant season again. The most annoying insects on the planet are back to invade your kitchen. Get revenge on those savages with Ant Smasher. Crush the army of ants with your finger as they attempt to cross the screen. Allowing an ant to pass makes you lose a life. Also, smashing a bee stings you, resulting in the end of the game.

Pac-Man

For the gaming purist. 36 years later, Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde still have it in for poor old Pac-Man. Nothing has changed — scurry around that awkward maze while the four ghosts attempt to ambush you. This app has newer maps with unique themes and colors that weren’t included in the arcade game. You can also join tournaments with other players who have the app.

As soon as they encounter a Pokemon, the phone switches on its camera, and Pokemon is rendered atop the real world (though you can turn off the augmented reality function if you so wish). Various landmarks also take on meaning in the game’s world. A local deli might turn into a “PokéStop” where players can collect items to aid them in their journeys. Or a nearby church might become a “Gym,” a site over which players battle, competing for dominance and bragging rights.

Only two days after its US launch, Pokemon Go already had more installs than Tinder (the mega-popular dating app), and almost as many daily users as Twitter. Praise is flooding in from every corner of the internet as people pour onto the streets in search of the virtual creatures. In particular, there has been a huge response from more sedentary folk, who cite the game as motivation to get out and get cardio workouts.

Unlike other Pokemon games, walking around in the real world is necessary. Not only must players explore to find new Pokemon, but eggs containing Pokemon can only hatch after the player walks a certain number of kilometers. Users have even taken to Twitter to speak of how the game has dramatically improved their mental health.

The game is also making unprecedented strides in making mobile games more social. Players around the country are posting photos online of chance encounters with other players. In well-populated areas, it’s not uncommon for groups of ten or twenty players to crop up at Gyms or hotspots with rare Pokemon. Never before has a game encouraged real-life socialization on such a massive scale. We can only hope this sets a precedent for games to come.

Investors have picked up on the game’s popularity, too. Since the game’s release on July 7th, Nintendo’s stock has risen by more than 50% (as of 7/11). However, the game has had a myriad of issues since its release, with countless players getting locked out of the game during peak usage hours. The concerns with scaling for a user base far larger than Niantic predicted are very real.

Nevertheless, confidence in the game has done nothing but climb. Given the massive popularity of the game, it can only be a matter of time before Niantic resolves the issues. Meanwhile, we’ll be keeping our eyes out for Mewtwo (except when we cross the road – always be aware of your surroundings when playing, kids!)

1. Word Chums

Word Chums is like an upgraded version of Words with Friends for Android users. It provides customizable characters, reminiscent of the Pokemon era, and lets users play with up to three or four other players, whether they be friends or strangers. Word Chums also lets players compete at the same time, which helps keep the game moving.

2. Real Basketball

Kick FIFA, and football multiplayer games to the side, and make room for this realistic, and competitive basketball game. Real Basketball lets users customize basketballs, uniforms, and courts to add aesthetic elements to an otherwise sports-oriented game. It also features a game board that lets you view your statistics, as well as your friend’s. This makes for easy competition between players.

3. RE-VOLT 2

A 3D car racing game with a twist, RE-VOLT 2 lets up to four players face-off in a variety of different stadiums, and vehicles. The game offers different scenes, and sketches that give you the opportunity to face different opponents, whether they be friends or computer-generated competitors. It also trumps a regular racing game by offering different types of powers, like missiles, or water balloons, to add another element of fun, and surprise.

4. QuizUp

QuizUp is a more comprehensive Trivia Crack, offering quizzes in over 550 topics from education to history to gaming. This trivia game will test your knowledge, and let you race friends to answer a variety of questions. It also has a social element beyond the competition, offering community forums where you can discuss questions with users who have similar interests.

5. Spaceteam

Spaceteam is a unique, multiplayer game that has you collaborate with three other players to keep the spaceship together. The screen mimics the dashboard of a spaceship, and requires you flip switches, turn dials, and make commands to keep the ship flying. The best part is that each player’s’ dashboard is different, so the commands you can carry out may not show up on someone else’s screen, forcing communication, and joint problem solving.
