Thanks Donna.  I’d previously purchased the Delight Games bundle but only now 
is it accessible.  Going to have fun playing these.

And One-Button Travel is … well, a bit meh, really.  Give it a try—hey, you’ve 
paid for it—but I probably won’t be keeping this around.  Frequency, the 
Lifeline series, The Martian, etc all provide a somewhat more emotive 
experience with the same style of gameplay and a real-time aspect.

Most of the apps on my phone are games.  By any objective measure except my 
own, this means I have more crap on my phone than useful apps.  This is, of 
course, exactly how I like it. :) Although it’s probably unfair to characterise 
it as such, I still feel that iOS is a frivolity all by itself, and that while 
it isn’t entirely general-purpose I’ll never be able to take it seriously as 
anything but a consumption platform for having fun on.  I have more apps on iOS 
than on my Mac or Windows machines, but if you exclude the games the trend is 
opposite: more useful stuff on desktop. I just wish the few good things about 
iOS—it’s ease-of-use, it’s convenience, it’s modular and task-oriented 
nature—didn’t have to come at such a high cost of being restricted heavily in 
functionality and choice of applications.  I still hold out faint hope that 
Apple will one day liberate the platform from their tight grip to encourage 
more innovation, but until then, it’s really for my enjoyment more than 
anything.
