RIGA, LATVIA, March 12, 2011 (Press-News.org) The game for iPhone and iPad that is based on a popular Russian TV show has taken App Store in Russia by storm in December last year.
inReverse Party Game held the top spot across all applications on the App Store in Russia for more than a week, and it also has conquered Music and Family categories in many other countries.
The idea of the game is simple, but it is proven to entertain at parties of any size. One player records a short a cappella fragment of any song that comes to mind. The second player then has to repeat the reversed version of that song by recording it one short fragment at a time. Once all fragments are recorded, they are then reversed back to reveal something that surprisingly resembles the original song, but sounds much funnier. The whole process of repeating reversed fragments is very entertaining by itself.
"We did find one party-game app, however, that was gloriously dumb - dumb in that "I hate to admit it, but playing this game is actually a hoot" way. That would be inReverse Party Game," said TheRegister.co.uk about the game in their short review of party apps.
In version 1.5.0 developers listened to the feedback they received, and the game now has the new rewritten from scratch sound engine responsible for splitting songs into fragments. This allows players to achieve better results in repeating reversed recordings. In addition to that the game now allows to change game settings, such as default fragment length and total number of fragments that song can be split into. And of course there's now mandatory Facebook integration.
Silent Apps is a small team of developers from Latvia whose first project is inReverse Party Game. The team is currently expanding and working on a number of projects to be released this year, not only in Games but also in Productivity category.

Consumers Call for Businesses to Offer More Product Information on Web and Mobile
2011-03-12
Nearly half (47 percent) of all consumers believe detailed product information is a critical factor of an ecommerce website in driving them to make a purchase, according to Stibo Systems, the independent market leader in master data management.
The findings, which feature in a new Stibo Systems' report launched today entitled 'The Devil is in the Details', highlight that while consumers are crying out for more detailed product information, they still believe more could be done by companies to achieve this. 30 percent of consumers feel that more detailed product information ...
New lupus drug results from Scripps Research technology
2011-03-11
LA JOLLA, CA – March 9, 2011 – For Immediate Release – Scientific advances at The Scripps Research Institute were key to laying the foundation for the new drug Benlysta® (belimumab), approved today by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Benlysta®, which treats the most common type of lupus, is the first in a new class of pharmaceuticals that prevents the body from attacking its own critical tissues.
"I am deeply gratified that our scientific findings have proven so valuable to drug discovery," said Richard A. Lerner, MD, president of Scripps Research. "This development ...
Pollution forms an invisible barrier for marine life
2011-03-11
Over 50 percent of the population in the United States and over 60 percent in the world live in coastal areas. Rapidly growing human populations near the ocean have massively altered coastal water ecosystems.
One of the most extensive human stressors is the discharge of chemicals and pollutants into the ocean. In the Southern California Bight, more than 60 sewage and urban runoff sources discharge over 1 billion gallons of liquid on a dry day with the two largest sources of contaminants being sewage from municipal treatment plants and urban runoff from highly modified ...
Weed-eating fish 'key to reef survival'
2011-03-11
Preserving an intact population of weed-eating fish may be vital to saving the world's coral reefs from being engulfed by weed as human and climate impacts grow.
A new study by researchers at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies has found weed-eaters like parrotfish and surgeonfish can only keep coral reefs clear of weed up to a point. After the weeds reach a certain density, they take over entirely and the coral is lost.
For some years researchers have pinned their hopes on the ability of weed-eating fish to keep the weeds at bay while the corals recover ...
Insights from oil spill air pollution study have applications beyond Gulf
2011-03-11
During a special airborne mission to study the air-quality impacts of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill last June, NOAA researchers discovered an important new mechanism by which air pollution particles form. Although predicted four years ago, this discovery now confirms the importance of this pollution mechanism and could change the way urban air quality is understood and predicted.
The NOAA-led team showed that although the lightest compounds in the oil evaporated within hours, it was the heavier compounds, which took longer to evaporate, that contributed most to ...
Molecules work the day shift to protect the liver from accumulating fat
2011-03-11
PHILADELPHIA - The liver normally makes and stores fat, which is required in moderation for normal body function. However, if the process goes awry, excess fat in the liver can cause major liver damage. In fact, fatty liver is a leading cause of liver failure in the United States, and is often brought on by obesity and diabetes. In turn, the increasing prevalence of these diseases has brought with it an epidemic of liver disease.
Abnormal sleep patterns, such as those of shift-workers, can be risk factors for obesity and diabetes. Investigators have known for decades ...
Age affects us all
2011-03-11
Durham, NC — Humans aren't the only ones who grow old gracefully, says a new study of primate aging patterns.
For a long time it was thought that humans, with our relatively long life spans and access to modern medicine, aged more slowly than other animals. Early comparisons with rats, mice, and other short-lived creatures confirmed the hunch. But now, the first-ever multi-species comparison of human aging patterns with those in chimps, gorillas, and other primates suggests the pace of human aging may not be so unique after all.
The findings appear in the March 11 issue ...
Anthropologists link human uniqueness to hunter-gatherer group structure
2011-03-11
TEMPE, Ariz. – One of the most complex human mysteries involves how and why we became an outlier species in terms of biological success.
Research findings published in the March 11 edition of the journal Science by an international team of noted anthropologists, including several from Arizona State University, who study hunter-gatherer societies, are informing the issue by suggesting that human ancestral social structure may be the root of cumulative culture and cooperation and, ultimately, human uniqueness.
Because humans lived as hunter-gatherers for 95 percent of ...
Johns Hopkins scientists reveal role of light sensor in temperature sensation
2011-03-11
A light-sensing receptor that's packed inside the eye's photoreceptor cells has an altogether surprising role in cells elsewhere in the body, Johns Hopkins scientists have discovered. Using fruit flies, they showed that this protein, called rhodopsin, also is critical for sensing temperature.
A report on the work appears March 11 in Science.
"For decades, this well-known molecule — one of the most-studied sensory receptors — was thought to function exclusively in the eye as a light receptor, but now we have found that fly larvae and possibly other organisms use it ...
Aging rates, gender gap in mortality similar across all primates
