Amazon Game Studios will be releasing four of its titles, for iPhone and iPad. These include two new games, Lost Within and Til Morning’s Light, along with existing titles Tales from Deep Space and To-Fu Fury.

The first new title is Lost Within, a new survival horror game set in an abandoned asylum. The player solves mysteries, crafts weapons, and more in an effort to uncover the asylum’s secret. Also coming soon is Til Morning’s Light, an action-adventure game set in a haunted mansion, according to Amazon Game Studios:

The game tells the story of Erica, a teenager who must escape a haunted mansion filled with ghosts and strange creatures by solving puzzles, defeating monsters and exploring the depths of the mansion. As a free bonus for customers, an audio prequel titled “The Private Blog of Erica Page” is available from Audible.com.

Also coming to iPhone and iPad are platformers Tales From Deep Space and To-Fu Fury. Tales From Deep Space is a platformer where you’ll need to solve puzzles in a strange space station called Big Moon. Too-Fu Fury, in addition to platforming, adds an element of action. Your character turns into To-Fu, and you can use their unique abilities of stretching, sticking, and more to solve puzzles and move through levels.

No releases dates for these game were given just yet, but they are expected to be released soon.

One of the benefits of using the Chrome browser (and Firefox) is the ability to install extensions to add unique functionality to the browser. One of them is a QR code generator for the Windows Phone Store. We have covered a similar extension before, but it stopped working after the Store switched to HTTPS.

Now, a new developer by the name of George Schizas has shared his updated version of the extension, which is, of course, free.

The extension is simple: navigate to the Windows Phone Store web site on your PC, and whichever app you are looking at, a corresponding QR code is generated.

Zynga will release Dawn of Titans, a fantasy-themed strategy game with some impressive looking graphics, for the iPhone and iPad later this year.

This is the first game from Zynga that’s being developed by UK-based studio NaturalMotion, which Zynga acquired in 2014. Dawn of Titans looks like it will have traditional real-time-strategy gameplay, with tons of units onscreen, mixed with the Clash of Clans-like kingdom building feature. Here’s what Zynga has to say about the game:

In Dawn of Titans, players are immersed in a breathtaking, high fantasy world as they lead Titans into epic battles with thousands of soldiers. Players build their kingdoms to fuel their army, raise Titans and fight battles at epic scale to capture territory. The Dawn of Titans experience is set within a kingdom that looks, feels and sounds real. Our team has designed every element of Dawn of Titans – from the trees, to the waterfalls, to the Titans, to the battles – to push the edge and create an entertainment experience that we believe supersedes anything found today in the Action Strategy category.

Zynga plans to soft-launch Dawn of Titans for select countries and devices before its worldwide launch later this year.

For some time now, users outside of the US using Cortana could get the weather but it was always in Fahrenheit. To get around this US-based temperature system, users had to use the voice assistant to request the temperature in Celsius specifically each time. It worked, but it was also cumbersome.

This morning, Windows Central began receiving numerous reports that their weather is now showing up in their Cortana stream in their regional preference aka Celsius.

Yodel, a new Windows Phone 8.1 app, has just been released. It’s also the first third-party app to support the Yik Yak social media network, which lets users send and read anonymous messages to anyone within a 10 mile radius of their current location.

Just like there are power cases for iPhones, the Reserve Strap — still in prototype — hopes to extend the battery life of the Apple Watch.

The Reserve Strap is a prototype accessory for the Apple Watch that wants to give you extra time to actively use the device. While there are no solid numbers yet on just how long the Watch’s battery should last Apple has indicated that it will last about a day. The Reserve Strap uses two small batteries in conjunction with an inductive charging cradle.

From the Reserve Strap website:

These photos show our first concept–a silicon band with embedded lithium polymer cells and an inductive charging cradle between your wrist and the Apple Watch. Through prototyping, we’ve refined this design and come up with a few other ways to charge the Watch that we can’t wait to share with you.

As previously noted, this is a prototype. What’s more, there’s a better than decent chance that it won’t even work. Apple hasn’t announced any sort of accessory plans for the Watch, and while their MFi program could be expanded to include accessories that connect to Apple Watch, there’s no guarantee that this will make the cut.

Despite this, the company is taking pre-orders for the strap for $249.99, which the company says can be refunded at any time.
