The timing of the release of this app couldn’t have come at a better time! Cyoshi Games has announced the availability of the Scary App – The iPhone Prank which pretends to be a skills test where users will have to navigate a silver marble through a wooden maze by tilting their iPhone or the iPod Touch. Now you don’t have to finish the game. Hand the game over to another person you want to play the prank on and sucker them into believing you cannot finish all the three levels.

Once the one playing is at level 3, a grotesque screaming face will turn up in the middle of the level which is bound to scare the lights off that person. A harmless prank that is fit for the Halloween season! The Scary App: The iPhone Prank (iLabyrinth)-Screamer is available at the iTunes app store for $0.99.

Here is a demo video of the app:

Text messaging has come a long way from just sending a simple text message to one or group of friends today. It has evolved into a powerful from of mass media where the billions of text messages being sent around the world has caught everyone in a maze of private and commercial messaging frenzy. More so, it is apparent that mobile phone subscribers are clamoring for better cell phone plans, ranging from unlimited texting to cost-efficient plans. And a lot of local service providers have done so but the public is still asking for more.

According to statistics compiled by the Messaging and Mobile Media Division of VeriSign, Inc., mobile messaging continues to shatter records with nearly 84 billion messages were delivered throughout the first quarter of 2009.

These records can be considered modest. For one, they only cover a certain area of concern. But if you put the whole world together, you may see tons of people wanting better mobile phone plans either for personal use or business-related intent. And for mobile providers, they only intend to provide more as they conceptualize client-enticing mobile plans that will certainly be awaited by consumers in the market today.
