Can’t wait to see what’s under the cloche? Get the dining ware ready
because here 7 new Android apps, dressed and ready for your consumption.
Travel the magnificent virtual citadel, created by Epic Games, called the
Epic Citadel.
Looking at the app’s Google Play Store page, I really thought that this
was a game. But, after using it, I found out that this was an
interactive benchmark tool that measures your GPU’s performance. Powered
by Unreal Technology, the state-of-art designs of the citadel look
amazing. Its graphics actually remind me of Assassin’s Creed 2. Aside
from using the app as a tool, you can also walk around and explore the
breathtaking citadel.

The weekend is approaching. Have you already chosen a place where you
and your friends can hang out? I did and it was easy with CoreDigital’s
Wotchapp
app. This app scans your location and suggest popular places where you
can hang out. Locations are grouped into three: Arts &
Entertainment, Food, and Nightlife Spot. Nearby places will then be
displayed on the screen. You can also read user reviews, comments, and
even photos submitted by users to a hangout place. The ads-supported
Wotchapp app can be downloaded for free. Ads will only appear at the
bottom of the screen.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy early 90′s gaming with
RetroArch Android,
a free game emulator app by Libretro. Unlike most game emulator apps,
RetroArch allows you to play several game platforms on your smartphone.
RetroArch currently comes with 14 game emulators such as FCEUmm for
Nintendo NES games, Snes9x-Next for Nintendo SNES games, and — my
personal favorite — Nestopia for the Nintendo NES where I can play the
classic Casltevania game. The app is simple, straightforward, and easy
to use. It’s like carrying a portable gamebuddy everywhere you go.

Art has always been my first love. Even when the latest technology
offers state-of-the-art drawing tablets and digital art programs, I
still end up going back to my traditional tools in painting. But, I
discovered a nice alternative to my traditional approach:
LINE Brush.
NAVER has created a no-frills drawing platform that is not too heavy on
any device. The interface is very responsive and easy to navigate
around. I especially like the brush sets in the app, even if they’re
currently limited. At the same time, you can draw on pictures or
transform pictures into paintings using Photo Brushes. Best of all, you
can be as artistic as you want to be without having to bring so much
with you. I tried this on an Xperia TX, and painting on the Xperia TX
has never been this fun!

You can tweak the equalizer by using presets or reverb, or you can
