Bike Life is an endless riding game co-developed by Meek Mill and IM3 Gaming Studios. The game takes place in Meek Mill’s hometown of Philadelphia and is meant to represent street bike culture. Players perform extreme bike stunts, compete against other players, and collect coins to upgrade their characters’ bike gear. While playing the game, players listen to exclusive music by Meek Mill and engage with other celebrities.

The Executive

The Executive is a fast-paced action game developed by Riverman Media LLC. In The Executive, players take on the role of a CEO whose mining company has been invaded by werewolves, and it’s the CEO’s job to save all of the employees before the werewolves get to them first. Players have to use their best fighting tactics, as they battle more than 50 enemies, each with their own strengths and weakness. The Executive features 120 levels of non-stop action and intense fights. If you’re a fan of Street Fighter II and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, you’ll absolutely love this game.

Amazing Stairs

amazing-stairs-for-ios
Amazing Stairs is an arcade game developed by App Cow. In the same vein as games like Flappy Bird and Timberman, players are challenged to see how far they can climb up the endless sequence of stairs in a limited amount of time. Once players get acquainted with the touch controls, it gets a lot easier to obtain a much higher score. The game does incorporate incredibly disruptive ads, but the most addicted players may not be too bothered by them.

Escape

escape-for-ios
Escape is an arcade game developed by Ketchapp. In this fast-paced game, players need to quickly take control of their rocket, which is traveling through a world of destruction. Players must save all of their frightened passengers, while buildings collapse and mountains sink into the ground. Be careful though, because if your rocket touches a building when it collapses or hits the ground, all of your passengers will die.

Halo: Spartan Strike

Humbling teardown confirms Trump Phone is just a painted-over HTC phone
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

When the Trump Mobile T1 was announced, it arrived wrapped in the kind of marketing language you’d expect from a product tied to Donald Trump: bold claims, patriotic branding, and plenty of references to American values. What wasn’t immediately clear was what made the phone itself special.

Now, thanks to a detailed teardown and CT scan analysis by iFixit, we appear to have an answer. And it’s not exactly the revelation Trump Mobile was probably hoping for. After peeling back the gold-colored exterior, investigators found what looks remarkably like another smartphone already on the market: HTC’s U24 Pro. That’s awkward for a device marketed as something distinct.

Saily just turned the eSIM into a $1 burner phone number
NordVPN’s eSIM app could save your real phone number from app spam
Saily eSIM now offers $1 Burner Number

If you're like me and have relied on travel eSIMs, you know the drill. You get access to mobile data abroad without paying the premium your carrier charges for the roaming bill. But more often than not, you're stuck with just data since you don't actually have a proper phone number to use.

But Saily is trying to make traveler eSIMs a lot more useful by actually including a phone number. NordVPN's eSIM app is now letting users get a dedicated US +1 phone number directly through the Saily app. The number subscription starts at $0.99 per month, with separate call and text plans also starting from $0.99. So, for less than a cup of coffee, you get a second number that can be handy for food delivery apps, hotel bookings, ticketing services, online marketplaces, 2FA codes, and all those random forms that ask for your phone number.
