Shaker Pulled From App Store
Recently, Shaker, a "Tetris-like" game featuring a martini theme, was pulled from the App Store due to its similarity to the gaming classic. According to The Unofficial Apple Weblog, developer Phunkware was told that Shaker would be removed from the App Store's shelves after the Tetris Company and Tetris Holdings LLC filed complaints to Apple regarding the similarity between the two titles.
Stay tuned for more details as they become available and if you've tried Shaker and can offer any feedback, let us know in the comments or forums.
