We know how awesome the iPhone is for productivity. We know how many really useful things it can do. But most of the enjoyment I get from my iPhone is in the pointless but fun things it can do and Mouthoff (which is available on both iPhone and Android I believe) is a perfect example....

Can Knockdown is a free iPhone app (available here) based on the traditional fairground game of throwing things at cans with a view to knocking them over. Sounds simple? Well, in theory, it is.

I’m a bit of a retro geek when it comes to my gaming. I like Mario (in 2D). I like Sonic (again in 2D) and I like simple games. I prefer little plumbers jumping on mushrooms to the blood, guts and realistic gore that games can now offer. I prefer little mushroom men throwing TNT...
