Kelly’s Recommendation:

App: OpenTable

• a “Must Have” app for your smartphone if you ever need to make a restaurant reservation.
• It’s available on both Android and iOS.
• For all you introverts out there… you never have to interact with an actual human being! At least until you get to the restaurant.
• It allows you to make reservations at participating restaurants (good ones too!) by what’s available right now, or whenever you like in oodles of areas and even internationally.

Mel’s Recommendation:

Game: The Long Dark by Hinterland Games

• a Post Apocalyptic Survival game on PC that pits you against the frozen Canadian wilderness.
• Try and stay alive to scavenge supplies, stay warm, and find food. You also get to craft some supplies.
• Essentially  this game comes down to Calorie Management. You need to balance the calories you take in against the calories you put out staying alive. Until the wolves eat you.
• The game is in Alpha Testing now and is available as an Early Access game on Steam. Make sure to check out the Humble Store too.
• The Sandbox mode is working now, and when you if you buy it now, you get the full game complete with the actual Story Mode when it is released.
• Did I mention it’s pretty? See below!
