"Rotorumpus is unlike anything I’ve played on the iPhone platform. It’s by turns absorbing, frustrating and, ultimately, amazing." So goes the final statement in my review of Rotorumpus.

Thanks to Nial of UglyApps, we have promo codes to give out to some lucky WOiP readers who will soon get to experience for themselves how absorbing, frustrating, amazing and sci-fi-ish Rotorumpus really is.

To win, just share with us your all-time favorite sci-fi film. Oh and if you’re going to answer any of the Star Wars films, PLEASE tell us your second favorite instead. We already know about your life-size Chewbacca cut-out.

Reversi, otherwise known as Othello, is my all-time favorite board game. The synergy of simplicity and strategy in the game is what keeps me coming back to it. And thanks to VYGSoft, I get to play it for hours on end on my iPhone with their brilliant app called Cool Reversi.

In my review of Cool Reversi, I expressed my satisfaction with the developer’s implemention of the game along with my minor disappointment with a couple of display bugs. Fortunately, I just got in touch with Vlad of VYGSoft and he told me that all is well now, the app having been updated and improved a couple of times since my review.

Apparently, Vlad was feeling particularly generous during our recent email exchange as he also provided us with a lot of promo codes (and I mean a lot) to give away to a number of WOiP readers so that they might also have the chance to play Reversi using, IMO, the best and coolest Reversi app for the iPhone out there.

To enter to win, simply leave a comment telling us the board game which we should not dare play — at least not with you as our opponent. Good luck!

Got Plurk? Are you a plurkrastinator like I am? Do you plurk more than you tweet? If you answered no to all three questions or have no idea what Plurk, a plurkrastinator or a plurk is, then read on to be converted and/or enlightened. If, on the other hand, you answered yes to each question, boy am I so glad to meet you – a fellow plurker on WOiP! Have you heard the good news?

Yes, Plurk, the micro-blogging site similar to Twitter that has compelled many an employee (myself included) to remain stuck to their ergonomic chairs, incessantly sending updates a.k.a. plurks to their friends and fans to push their karma up (karma is sort of a measure of one’s progress in, or addiction to, Plurk), is finally on the iPhone – thanks to a native app called, well, Plurk on the iPhone. Emphasis on finally because apparently this app was submitted for Apple’s approval way back September last year. After spending four months in App Store limbo, it’s now out and ready to satisfy my and your mobile plurking needs.

With the Plurk on the iPhone app, you can retrieve and view your and your friends’ timelines, reply to plurks, edit and delete your plurks, and view and manage your Plurk contacts, among others. Plurk qualifiers, such as is, thinks, loves, has and shares, are integrated within the app, as well as hints to including emoticons in your plurks, e.g. type “:-)” for a simple smiley or “(woot)” for a particularly psyched emoticon.

Plurk on the iPhone is a great alternative to the Plurk mobile site and is available for absolutely free. Download it HERE in the App Store to start experiencing the wonders and addictive powers of plurking or to begin increasing your karma through your iPhone/iPod Touch. Who knows, you might reach Plurk nirvana in no time.
