If you can get past the inuendo in the game's title, you can have a decent time playing this game. The basic premise of Seaman Count is that you are a sea monster on the ocean floor, and your goal is to eat the seamen in numbered order as they randomly appear on the screen. If you take too long to find and click on the numbered seamen, or click them in the wrong order too many times your sea monster gets poked by a fork that slowly creeps down the right side of the screen. Clicking the correct sequence of seamen quickly will prolong your side-dish destiny.
Seaman Count is a fast paced game which tests not only your hand eye coordination, but your memory at the same time. If your memory is sharp it will help you to recall quickly where a specific numbered seaman popped up in the playing field, and it will also help you keep track of which number comes next in the sequence, which is vital to the game. Don't worry if you lose track of the next number though, because there is a red indicator at the top of the screen which keeps track of the next number for you. I found this to be quite helpful, but it does cost you a second or two of time when you look up to check the number, then look back to find it in the playing field. Remember, time is of the essence, and it keeps you from becoming calamari.
During gameplay I took notice that the playing field becomes very crowded and chaotic. For every seaman that you click on, a tentacle reaches up and grabs that particular seaman, dragging him to the murky depths. As each seaman is dragged down, a white speech bubble with a big red exclamation point appears above their head, and they tend to cover up the new seamen that are continuously popping up. This in itself makes the game very challenging and adds a new and interesting degree of difficulty.
I was surprised to find out that Seaman Count uses the same online profile system as Eyegore's Eye Blast(a game I reviewed prior to this). The online profile was developed by Agon and is a welcomed sight in my personal opinion. Through the online profile you can:
-Upload a photo avatar from your phone’s photo roll.
-Edit your username or use an alias.
-Invite friends
-Compare scores with your friends or local players.
-View your wall of achievements and post comments.
Priced at $0.99 in the app store, Seaman Count is a welcomed addition for anyone who appreciates a game that challenges the senses. This deep sea game will test your mind in ways that you've never fathomed possible.

Deep in what appears to be a mad scientist style dungeon, you find your self eye to eye with Eyegore's stockpile of eyeballs swinging from a rusty chain. You may find that odd, but where do you keep your stockpile of eyeballs? Eyegore has his eyeball shooter in the room and needs your help to sort out the rest of his eyeball collection.
The object of this game is simple and self explanatory, shoot the different colored eyes into the pile to make matches of three or more similar colored eyes. What's not so easy about this, is that when the eyes hit, the whole stockpile starts to spin unpredictably. Alot of timing comes into play here as you now have to tilt your phone back and forth to create a swinging motion until you get just the right angle for a well placed, well timed shot. If the swinging motion doesn't help, you can always try banking the eyeballs off the walls. This seems like alot of effort for this type of game, but it won't go unrewarded. Every time you make special combos or certain trick shots, you will unlock achievments that you can post to Twitter and Facebook or compare with friends through an online profile that you can edit yourself.
