Fruitz Dashboard Widget

1697 days ago in Essential Apps, Reviews by Brent | 3 Comments

Earlier this weekend, I was clicking through the Apple download database and I came across a little app called Fruitz. It’s a wonderful little time waster that you can throw into your dashboard and play when the “boss” isn’t looking. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Someday, I’ll actually figure out how to play without losing my shirt. haha!

UPDATE: I hit the jackpot this morning! Got myself 20,000 bucks from the digital one-armed bandit. I only I wish I would have bet more (oh crap, I think I’m hooked). Now can I get up the courage to hit the button again?

Seriously, I’m wasting way too much time with this thing.
