New ZuneHD Apps: Music Quiz & Animalgrams
Looks like the folks at Microsoft are still continuing to roll out applications and mini-games for the Zune HD, some of which are being ported over to Windows Phone 7 e.g. 'Goosplat'.
Two news ones that are now available are 'Music Quiz' which uses the Zune's music library to...well quiz you on music. Functioning like those common bar-quizzes, the game allows you to pick an artist, genre or playlist to test your skills on two-levels: 'normal' and 'hardcore'.
The other game, 'Animalgrams', falls into the puzzle category as it uses 'the Jungle of the Savanna' as a background theme for figuring out anagrams. Hmmm...witty one there, Microsoft.
Both look like great time-killers and are quite fun. These two new games brings the ZuneHD game count up to 14--not bad for free, as all are actually really enjoyable.We also really hope 'Music Quiz' makes it over to the WP7 Marketplace some time. Fire up your Zune connect software and head to the Marketplace to download.
As always, both are free.
