Review: Pad & Quill’s Leather Roll Top Backpack has impeccable craftsmanship and style

Justin Kahn Apr 20 2017 - 3:19 pm PT

25% off

Pad & Quill’s hand-made Apple device accessories are easily among the best in the category. The small company takes great pride in the materials and craftsmanship that goes into everything it makes from wooden iPhone 7 cases, to gorgeous leather MacBook sleeves and more. There is even an interesting full-grain leather Apple Pencil Grip, but the company’s dedication to organic and well-made products extends well beyond items specifically made for Apple gear. We recently detailed the new Pad & Quill men’s leather wallets, but it is the company’s Roll Top Backpack that caught my eye.

Head below for our hands on impressions and a chance to get one for up to 25% off…

The console goes for $300, the games and expansion pass are worth about $140 and the SD card has a value of about $40 or so. So that is just shy of $500 in value.

Reservoir Dogs Bloody Days hits Steam next month + new trailer [Video]

Justin Kahn Apr 18 2017 - 1:39 pm PT

(Update: 5/18 1:55pm): Today’s the day. Reservoir Dogs Bloody Days is out now on Steam for Mac/PC with a 10% off discount: $13.50 (Reg. $14.50).

Licensed games, especially those tied to films, have garnered quite a bad reputation over the years. So when we first heard about the new Reservoir Dogs game coming to PC and Xbox One, we were quite skeptical at best. Tarantino’s odd, yet celebrated, mix of exposition and heist flashbacks doesn’t necessarily lend itself to your typical top-down action-shooter. Especially considering most of the film is conversations with a guy dying in an abandoned warehouse somewhere. Nonetheless, it looks as though folks at Big Star Games out of Barcelona have come up with an interesting angle here. This isn’t just a bank robbery/heist game with 4 guys in suits taking out security guards, like you may have expected….

Simply use code GOSWITCH during checkout to redeem the offer. It has hovered between $10 to $15 on Amazon and is this is the lowest total price we can find. Rated 4+ stars from 40 early reviewers.

There are loads of amazing Nintendo Switch accessories out there, but screen protection might be the most important of all. We praised the Nintendo Switch in our hands on-review for re-invigorating our interest in console gaming to a whole new level. But that screen though:

However, not every part of the Switch is so strong. One of those is the screen, which is also plastic. Trust me when I say this — however you feel about screen protectors, get a screen protector for the Switch. The plastic scratches easily and it’s just not worth the risk to save a couple bucks or a few minutes of frustration.

The Howler iOS adventure-puzzler free for first time in years (Reg. $1)

Justin Kahn Apr 13 2017 - 4:37 pm PT

The Howler is a very unique iOS title. It combines the use of sound and motion gestures with artistic adventure-puzzler gameplay mechanics. And it is now available for free for the very first time since 2014. It could be described as a party game considering you use noise for control, but all of that can be turned off in favor of typical on-screen gestures if you choose:

The game can be played in a traditional “touch” way or you can do everything by voice – noise will make the balloon to go up, silence will let it down. You can even drop parcels or bombs by making short loud noise or by shaking the device.

iOS Universal: The Howler: FREE (Reg. $1)

Here is the latest App Store Free App of the Week , you can play Star Wars Pinball 5 on iOS for free (Reg. $5) and the Hyperburner iOS space racer went free for very first time (Reg. $3).
