Game Time: Go Outside, Children

Remember when your mom used to tell you to go outside and play? Well thanks to the miracle of the iPhone you can go outside and play -- from inside. All it takes is a few apps for you to deceive your family and friends (Hey mom, I just played Frisbee with all my friends). And guess what? They're free right now. Party!
Frisbee Forever
Kiloo Games
Free

Frisbee Forever is simply awesome. Toss a 'bee and guide it through an obstacle course of rings, air gusts, and obstacles. With collectible stars littered through the level, it's a completionist's dream come true, as well. You'll get a gold medal for every 100% you get, and at certain increments you'll unlock new levels. It's a dangerous cycle that'll keep you occupied for a few hours at least and it's well worth the download price of free.

Rat On A Skateboard
Donut Games
Free

We've talked a lot about Donut Games in previous GameTimes and the more time we spend with them, the more we're certain that they're the most addictive games on our iPhones. Except every once in a while they have a few weird apps, but Rat On A Skateboard is (thankfully) more Rat On A Scooter than their stupid cat game.
Rat on a Skateboard recycles most of the old locales from the scooting days, but unlike it's automobile counterpart, "Skateboard" allows you to do all sorts of kickflips and tricks for extra points. Unfortunately, it also litters basketballs throughout the level, making it much harder than "Scooter." Not hard enough to stop me from breaking 100 points though. Peep the editor's score.

Woop.
That's it for this week's Game Time. If you want to talk about how bad Angry Birds is, sound off in the comments.
