Mad Libs Lite (Free)
Version 1.1
REVIEW – “The bright colors, funny pictures and whacky stories will jog old memories and create new ones.”
When I was a kid, there were no iPhones, PS3’s or any of the other cool gadgets that there are now. For entertainment, the kids on my street rode bikes, played hide-and-seek or on a rainy day, there were board games, coloring or Mad Libs. For some reason when I think of Mad Libs, I remember long road trips with everyone throwing out adjectives like they were nothing – which, in the Mad Libs world, they were just another means to an end – an end to my incessant chatter, as my brother would say.
As I child, I talked a lot. I liked to read, ask questions, write things and boss people around; it’s what I did. My brother was a lot quieter and usually kept to himself. When the Mad Libs book came out, it was always a guess of whether or not he would participate in the noun/adjective/verb-ending-in-ing guessing game that I loved so much. But don’t worry, if he didn’t participate, I always had my mom to bug.
As far as I am concerned, Mad Libs have been around forever, so why not take a classic and revolutionize it? Besides, you would be hard-pressed to find a kid nowadays with a pen and Mad Libs tablet in his hand. So whether it was Price Stern Sloan or Penguin Group who came up with the idea to add Mad Libs to iTunes, I say bravo. The revolutionary, tech-savvy kids of the new millennium can still experience the classics of the old-country… the 1900s, that is. And now 
they don’t have to worry about their handwriting being legible.
Mad Libs Lite has four categories (but an infinite number of possibilities): How to Enjoy Yourself on the Beach, Vacations, Letter to a Friend Back Home and Driving in the Car. Each Mad Lib has anywhere from 14 to 20 blanks that need to be filled out. When you decide on the story in which you wish to embark on a crazy journey with a buddy or two, you will be given a pop-up that asks for an adjective, verb, place, etc. As you type in the corresponding word, the next will pop up and so forth. When you have finished, your completed story will be available for an outloud read that is sure to have everyone ROTFLOL (☺).
Each Mad Lib can be as funny/crude/sweet as you would like it to be – and don’t worry, if you get stumped, all you 
have to do is press the “hints” button on the top right and a list of possibilities will scroll the screen so that you can have something to choose from or just jog your memory. Mad Libs: The World’s Greatest Word Game is now available to play on your iPhone or iTouch and it’s free – that’s cheaper than buying a pencil and tablet to play the old-fashioned way. Download it now for hours of fun with your friends, kids or your own personal enjoyment. The bright colors, funny pictures and whacky stories will jog old memories and create new ones.
