One of our writers has been deathly afraid of moles all of his life. He says one of this week's Gaming Apps 'o the Day cured him of that fear. I say no so fast.
One does not simply brush aside a fear for Earth's diamond-clawed tunnel rats. He can find brief solace in Hello Kitty. He can wrap himself in a protective cocoon of felt. He can try going about solving his problem logically. He can even try a little digging himself. Four of this week's five featured apps are here to help.
But the fifth? It's not a cure. It's a Band-Aid brand adhesive strip over a much bigger problem. And is that a mole talon slowly poking through the bandage?
Are you not entertained?
Be afraid of moles, and play some gaming apps.

Did I ever tell you about how terrified I was of moles when I was a kid? Oh man, I was. I really was. I think I saw a mole once above ground, and according to my parents I spent the day shouting "Mole! Mole!" and running and hiding. Burrowing little MF-er scared the pants off of me. More ?

Hey kids! If you play your cards rights you might one day be the owner of your own cafe, working tirelessly day in and day out to please demanding customers that can't even go to the bathroom on their own. Sound dreamy? Perhaps Hello Kitty Cafe can help change your mind. More ?
Only A Truly Devious Villain Would Make You Solve Riddles To Destroy Him
I was the sort of child who always had a bunch of brain-teaser and riddle books lying around in her room, and I grew into the sort of adult who enjoys Professor Layton games. The Curse, for me, is a natural extension of that impulse to solve everything. More ?
