myGames

myGames is a game catalog application with stunning graphics. It allows you to quickly add, find and view games in your library (with the ability to add new games by seeking by title using amazon.com - so all game details are filled in for you!). It also allows to lend games to friends, so you can easily keep track of who you gave that copy of "Unreal Tournament" to.

The game list has 3 visualisation options, "Wood", "Charcoal" and "Metal" which makes browsing your game list a pleasure for the eye.

There is also a wish-list which you can use to store game titles you want to buy in the future. As soon as you bought the game, you move it with a single tap to your game library.

When you tap on a game, you get the detailed game page. In this view you can modify the fields by tapping on them. When you're done, you should tap the "Done" button on the top. When you tap the Amazon button, the browser will launch with the Amazon url, so you can get even more game details - or buy it online! If you doubletap a game in the game list, you can quickly lend the game to a friend!

To add a new game, tap the add icon on top of the main screen. It will ask you whether you want to manually add a new game, or try to find it by title using the Amazon games database. The above screen shows the results after searching for "tournament" in Amazon. When you found the game you were looking for, tap the title and you are presented with the standard game editor view. When you finished editing, tap "Done".

In the main screen you can quickfind games too. Push the search icon on top of the screen, and a searchbar will popup. Start typing some letters of the title (or platform, ...) of the game you are looking for, and it will filter your game catalog in realtime. When you found the game, you tap to view it, or press the "Cancel" button to cancel your search and return to the standard view.

The settings page allows you to enable the title label (this shows the title of the book just below the cover image and might be handy of lots of covers in your collection look the same).
You can change the game ordering (either by title, genre or rating) to satisfy your own needs.
Finally, you can switch between 3 views: Wood, Metal and Charcoal.
