Description of Product: “ BATTLESHIP zAPPed EDITION
Man your battle stations… and your iPad! With the new BATTLESHIP zAPPed EDITION game by Hasbro zAPPed Gaming, players use their iPad screen as the playing surface when waging epic battles by executing strategic maneuvers, launching missile attacks and initiating airstrikes. Simply download the free BATTLESHIP zAPPed EDITION app from the App Store and place your ship pawns on the iPad screen to play. The iPad will automatically recognize which ship pawns are in play and when they are moved. The game features ships inspired by the BATTLESHIP feature film from Universal Pictures so players can defend the earth from alien attack and lead their fleet to victory!
SPELLSHOT zAPPed EDITION
All of the elements – Earth, Air, Fire and Water – combine in this mesmerizing and magical new app-enhanced battle game that turns an iPad screen into an interactive dueling ground where wizards compete for treasure. Simply download the free SPELLSHOT zAPPed EDITION app from the App Store and place your wizard pawn figures on the iPad screen to play. The iPad will automatically recognize which of the four wizard pawn figures are placed on the screen as players use strategy and skill to “cast spells” with touch-screen gestures. The first to collect all of the treasure wins!”
Review of Product: Noah would always rather play a game on the iPad than a traditional board game no matter how hard I try to get him to sit down with me to play a proper board game! He was so excited to get these two products as he had heard about them before! He tore right into them and played for a solid hour alternating between the two. I think it is so cool how you can use an iPad with an actual gaming piece and it really makes the game so much more interactive than just with the iPad alone. He preferred Battleship while I loved the Spellshot!
I received a sample of these products to review at no charge but my opinions remain my own.

I started Nicole's Nickels in February 2009 to bring all of the great deals I was finding to my friends and family and then it took off! Since then I've continued my full-time day job as an attorney while blogging in the evenings and on weekends. Nicole's Nickels has evolved into a site that lets you know about great new products and services! I help my clients during the days at the non-profit I work for and then my Nicole's Nickels readers learn about the best new products for their families! I live in south/central Florida and have 2 cute dogs (see their picture under "mascots") and an amazing husband who has a spunky 6 year old we get to spend a lot of time with. I hope you'll take the time to
