Snoop Lion (formally known as Snoop Dogg) has released a "Sticker Camera" app, and plans to release a new game entitled Way of the Dogg for iOS and Android devices. Snoop Dogg's Snoopify Sticker Camera! is a photo sharing app which allows users to "Snoopify" their images with a variety of Snoop Dogg-inspired stickers. Once a photo is Snoppified, users can share them via Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. The app includes several free stickers and booster packs, like the popular Snoop Hood Full Pack, for $1 to $2. The app is compatible with the iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. You can download it now for free through the App Store.

Taking a page from the Shaq Fu playbook, Snoop is also bringing his Xbox Live fighting game Way of the Dogg to iOS devices. The game is described as a "rhythm-action combat game".

“It’s the way you live, it’s the way you do what you do and captures the beat, the rhythm and the spirit of my music,” explained Snoop. “It’s not just about who you are ow where you've been, but where you are headed to. This game shows how we evolve as individuals and they've incorporated the journey of my own personal reincarnation as Snoop Lion into my character, the environments and the path that players have to follow.”

Check out the trailer for Way of the Dogg below.

In case you missed the memo, Injustice: Gods Among Us is free for all compatible iOS devices. Comic book fans who do not have a console, or can't afford the console version, should check out the iPhone or iPad app. The game is a pretty hefty download, so make sure you have enough space and are connected to Wi-Fi before downloading it to your device.

Warner Bros. describes the game as a "free to play collectible card game that allows you to build a roster of playable characters, moves and powers". The game is set in an alternate reality where Superman has murdered the Joker setting off a battle between his army and Batman's Insurgency. Injustice is a fighting game where your team of superheros and villains battle other DC Comics' characters.

PopCap has released a teaser trailer for Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time. The video posted to YouTube offers very little information about the upcoming game, but it does mention the sequel will be released sometime this July.

Some fans are concerned that the sequel will be plagued by too many in-app purchases now that PopCap is division of Electronic Arts Inc. Various iOS users have complained that the in-app purchases and upgrades for EA's Real Racing 3 were unreasonable, and made the game unbearable to play. Fans have their fingers crossed that EA does not go down the same road with the Plant vs. Zombie sequel.

RuPaul’s Drag Race: Dragopolis is not going to win any design or gameplay awards, but it will win the heart of any Drag Race fan. In Dragopolis, players must save the Pit Crew from the evil Apocalypstyk by jumping over drag trash, sliding under flying high heels, and dodging Mimi Imfurst (I don’t think it’s officially Mimi, but it sure looks like her) while still looking fabulous. Players can earn in-game money to spend on new outfits, wigs and power-ups by completing levels and participating in photo shoots. This is very important because you better don’t show up on the runway twice in the same outfit. You can also buy upgrades with real money, and unlock Manila Luzon, Pandora Boxx and Yara Sofia for $0.99 each. Hopefully more RuPaul Drag Race contestants will be added in future updates. I suggest adding a dunk Roxxxy mini-game, and getting more queens to do voiceovers. It would be great to hear Willam tell you, “you are not doing that right” every time you screw up.

Even with the lack of guest stars, the developers did a miraculous job of including all the important RuPaul-isms and capturing the true outrageousness of RuPaul’s Reality TV series. RuPaul’s Drag Race has been slowly climbing its way into the hearts of pop culture fans and outcasts since its debut, and while not a masterpiece, Dragopolis is an excellent addition to the RuPaul universe. Unlike other lackluster apps based on celebrities, RuPaul’s iOS game manages to capture the charm and magic of RuPaul and the queens that have been captivating fans on Logo since 2009.

A new iOS gamebook that utilizes the popular choose your own adventure format is getting rave reviews from both critics and app users. The new app is based on the 1983 Fighting Fantasy series Sorcery! written by Steve Jackson. The app is an interactive game/book that utilizes inklewriter technology to change the story around a user's choices while he or she is playing along.

The reader must make decisions based on a real-time story. The book's text and story line changes based on how the reader reacts to certain situations, and by what they do in combat. For example, players can choose to engage other characters or avoid them, and decide what towns to visit and what paths to take. Users can also cast spells and rewind the story if they don't like their decision or accidentally die.
