There are multiple ways to keep in touch with friends: meet them for a coffee, call them by phone, VoIP app, comment on their Facebook pics, etc. How about challenging them to a quick game? Don't think about lengthy strategic games. Ask yourself instead: Do I have 30 seconds to have fun and connect with friends at the same time? If yes, you should definitely give GameIn30 a try.

What GameIn30 does is very simple: It acts like a platform for very simple games and keeps you entertained for 30-second sessions. You decide whether you have time to continue after the short fun session ends, or continue or challenge your friends.

What I liked in GameIn30 is that registration is super easy: enter your phone number, then type the four-digit verification code, and you are ready to play. Fact is, the number of games the app offers is sort of limited, but there are enough to challenge your gaming skills for half a minute within the chosen game.

After the gaming session ends, you can share your score or invite your friends and contacts to play the game, which (depending on the game) can be played online, synchronized, or in-turns.

Unfortunately, the freshly released app is not yet optimized for iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, so this will affect the overall user experience, but hopefully this will be fixed soon.

GameIn30 is available for free for iOS (Android version coming soon). So, do you have 30 seconds to play and connect with friends?
