Kindle Game for a Dollar: Runes

Like astrology? You definitely want this game!

Runes is an ancient oracle (a divination method) similar to the I-Ching and the Tarot.

Runes originated in ancient times, before the Germanic peoples of Western Europe had a real alphabet. At this time, they used pictorial symbols carved into stone or wood to record their stories. Some of these symbols, the Runes, were used for divination and oracular inquiries, and are still used in this way today.

There are seven spreads or layouts of runes to pick from when asking your question. Each spread is best for different kinds of questions. For example, you can pick one spread for "What if?" questions, and another for "Yes/No" questions. The Runes oracle answers questions according to the specific runes returned and their placement in the spread. Some runes can also be shown Inverted. By selecting the Inverted option, you can be shown weakened influence or negative qualities relevant to your question. Each spread and each rune is explained in detail, and a history of Runes is also included. Runes can also provide a second opinion, verifying or challenging answers already found.

If you are interested in an answer to your questions via ancient and mystical divination, Runes is for you!

Kindle Game for a Dollar: Jewels

If you like the popular Facebook game "Bejeweled", then you'll love this one!

Jewels is a matching game which will put your planning and pattern recognition skills to the test.

The rules of Jewels are simple: you swap adjacent jewels (horizontally or vertically) to create combinations of three or more jewels of the same type. Once matched, the jewels are removed and the remaining jewels above it slide down to take their place. The challenge comes when there are few potential matches to find, and you must pick your next move carefully or risk eliminating remaining matches when the jewels shift down. If that's not challenge enough, then consider playing the timed mode where you race against a relentlessly decreasing timer and each successful match adds just a bit of time back to the clock.

Download Jewels for only .99 right now....and I do mean right now, because it goes back up to regular price on January 2!
