Top Pcmac Reviews

The best Oblique Strategies app!

By Enoch Soames (Pcmac user)

I was surprised to see several the app Strategies apps in the store, and after trying them all I can say unequivocally that this is the best of the group - it offers the ability to switch between any combination of the four extant editions, it looks good, and it credits Eno and Peter Schmidt (which the others do not do).
Mostly great

By Richard Mavis (Pcmac user)

This app is mostly great. My primary complaint is the flashing/shuffle effect between cards (after you tap or shake to pick another card, maybe a dozen or so other cards flash by in quick succession before the next one is presented), which I don't understand or enjoy. Also, it's not quiet clear how to dismiss the config/tool menu, but if you tap enough times it disappears.
Awesome app

By Mary Poopings (Pcmac user)

I agree with the other reviewer that said this was the best of the the app strategy apps, given that the user can modify the screen presentation and also choose between the different set versions. A bargain for two bucks.
Creative kick in the head

By tamale624 (Pcmac user)

Been a fan since these were on paper and on my Palm pilot. Nothing fancy, just beautifully minimal to spur a random thought to generate creative thinking and application.
