There are many different apps for your phone, some promote efficiency and productivity, many are essential for communication and a few support interaction. Yet, let's take a moment to acknowledge those apps that are simple, satisfying and entertaining. These are three we think you'll enjoy.

Jammin’ Jars

Online casino game players are a huge and diverse group that are catered to by specialist casino game developers. Push Gaming is one of the most recognisable names in developing these casino games and while poker, bingo, blackjack and roulette remain popular, slots are their speciality. While the old-fashioned slot machines that resided in pubs and land-based casinos were generally played by a select demographic, the slots are now more accessible and their appeal is considerably more widespread.

Now, any major casino worth its salt ensures there are titles for all gamers. Take the casino at Paddy Power for instance. With more and more female customers, brands are highly incentivized to create a number of titles that appeal to women, and Jammin’ Jars is one of the better and more gratifying creations. The Jammin’ Jars slot is a visual, multicoloured, collapsing reels game that has a simplicity to it as well as entertaining features that give the player unexpected outcomes and make this game an enjoyable experience for many. 

ASMR Slicing

It's not often that a game becomes popular solely due to its satisfying sounds and visuals, but that has been the case with this Crazy Labs Ltd. creation. Crazy Labs Ltd. have a history in developing games that appeal to a female audience with previous hits Miraculous Ladybug & Cat Noir, Super Stylist, Acrylic Nails! and Hair Dye! There's no real objective to this game, to progress through each level, you simply slice the objects. Occasionally you’ll have items inside the objects, but often it’ll just be you cutting through things. 

The graphics are fun, but not mind-blowing by today's standards. Yet, the aesthetic is very bright and colourful and the different cutting sounds you hear with different tools is heartening. The different tools are purchased by accumulating coins rather than in-app purchases, and the lightsaber was particularly enjoyable to wield. This game has been all over Instagram which makes a change from all the angry chefs slicing asper Esquire, and people reach for this game when they just need a tiny escape from this hectic world.

Elevate

This one is an edutainment brain-training game developed by Elevate Labs with an emphasis on literacy and numeracy. The app has been devised in collaboration with experts and supported by independent analysis. Many people have been using Elevate daily after it won an Apple award in 2014.

Thankfully, the developers didn't rest on their laurels and a host of new games have been added since then. You are delivered personalized daily workouts that will adapt to suit your level of performance in each game and focus on the skills you need most. It's challenging, but there is a huge feeling of satisfaction users get from achieving a personal best in one of the games. Those that are able to stick with it and dedicate some time to playing regularly are rewarded with enhanced focus, vocabulary, memory, maths skills, and more. Knowing you're training your brain while enjoying some entertainment is a great feeling.
