This is the second time I'm aware of where they've had two free apps for the day. First there was Farm Frenzy and Newsweek Mobile, then there was Airport Mania and Backbreaker Football.

What gives?

Farm Frenzy was getting complaints about needing too much permisions and doing data mining and such, and got pulled and replaced.

Airport Mania, had the price go up on the app after it was made the free app. Probably by the dev trying to milk returns after being picked as the free app, so that may have got it pulled earlier, had it already so did not notice it if it did.

Now that you're really looking at them, there's really quite a few that shouldn't have prying eyes looking through them.

Meteor Brick Breaker is today's free app (normally $3.99)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=discounter-20

In Meteor Brick Breaker, your job is to destroy moving blocks and static destructible bricks, while ensuring the ball you use to destroy blocks doesn't ever touch the ground. Watch out for hostile robots; they will do all they can to destroy you. Enemy ships and non-destructible blocks will prevent you from breaking other bricks, hampering your ability to destroy bricks. With 120 challenging levels, Meteor Brick Breaker is bound to keep you distracted for hours.
Crazy, Addictive Gameplay

Each level has a different layout and is noticeably more challenging than the levels before, ensuring gameplay never gets boring. Game controls are simple, straightforward, and intuitive; you won't have to worry about sticky controls with Meteor Brick Breaker. Just touch the rocket contour on the finger bar and move your finger from left or right to control your ship. Use your phone's trackball or D-pad, or simply tap the screen anywhere higher than the finger bar to shoot the ball toward enemy blocks.

Choose your difficulty level--easy, norm, or hard--accordingly to your skill level. If you choose hard, be prepared to chase the ball; the hard level speeds up the ball and makes it difficult to keep up with it. Many levels have opportunities to earn extra lives, so be sure to look out for these. You'll need them the further you advance.
Blocks

Couple of things you should know about the blocks in Meteor Brick Breaker. Some blocks contain useful bonuses--rocket enhancer, plasma ball, fire ball, and various types of weapons and defense. Other blocks contain not so useful power-downs--decreased rocket ability, slow speed, etc. Blocks that have numbers in them require you to hit them a number of times before they disappear.

A must-have for those who love retro arcade games!
