EA is a company that makes video games. Right now, they are having their second annual “Sweet Deal”. They have slashed the prices on many games that can be played on various mobile devices. Some of these apps are free to download!
Tomorrow is Easter Sunday. If your family celebrates Easter, then it is likely that you will be spending a lot of time over at the home of one of your relatives tomorrow. If you don’t live nearby, this could mean that your family will be spending hours together, in the family vehicle, with little to entertain themselves with. Children, especially young children, do not typically deal well with being bored, especially if they are required to sit still while they are bored.
They are going to need something to do. Now is the time to take advantage of the Sweet Deal from EA Mobile. They have reduced the prices of several of their games that are apps that you can play on a mobile device. If you have an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Android mobile device, then you can find some fun, and inexpensive, games to keep your child entertained with. Many are games are family friendly. A few of the games are free. Free is good!
There are too many game apps included in the Sweet Deal sale for me to list them all here. Instead, I will point out a few that are “kid friendly”. If you are using an iPhone, or an iPod touch, you can get Monopoly for 67% off the regular price. It’s just 99 cents right now, and it plays just like the board game does. Tetris is also 67% off the original price, and is selling for just 99 cents right now as well. Scrabble is absolutely free to download right now.
If you are using an iPad, you can download the Scrabble app for 90% off the cover price. This means it will be 99 cents to purchase. Or, try Pictureka, which is also just 99 cents right now. Pictureka is a simple game that involves visually searching through a screen full of cartoon drawings, in order to find a particular kind of things. When you find one, you tap on it. If your child loves the “I-Spy” series of books, then he or she may be amused by Pictureka. Risk, the classic board game, is also available for just 99 cents right now. It allows for up to six players.
If you are using an Android, you can get the classic board games of Monopoly or Life for $1.99 each. Tetris for Android is also just $1.99 right now. You can also download the incredibly addictive Bejeweled 2 for just $1.99 as part of this deal. The EA website doesn’t say how long the “Sweet Deal” is good for, but, since it shows a chocolate bunny in the advertising for it, one can reasonably assume that this deal ends when Easter is over.
