APPS WE LOVE
By Gail Perry, CPA, Editor-in-Chief
Games
WE KNOW YOU don't work 24/7, even though sometimes it seems like it. When
you take off your work hat, do you put your phone aside, or do you wind down
by playing a few games? This " Apps We Love " article focuses on games, and
the members of the CPA Practice Advisor community have generously agreed
to share their favorite games that they play on their phones. We all need a little
respite from busy season and bad weather!
Jackie Meyer, CPA, CTS, CTC, founder at
Meyer Tax, said, " A guilty pleasure of mine, and
many colleagues I know, is Two Dots. Keeps your
mind busy and shows how you stack up to your
Facebook friends! "
Samantha Mansfield, founder at Samantha
Mansfield LLC, recommends, " Sudoku and
Unblock Me - I have always liked puzzles, so
these two apps are fun when I have a couple free
minutes. Unblock Me has a multi-player option,
but I like the relax mode. "

Jeremias Ramos, CPA, tax manager at
Withum and editor-in-chief of The Daily CPA,
opts for using his free time for learning: " Not
sure if it counts but I use Duolingo to practice
my Spanish. "
Donny Shimamoto, CPA.CITP, CGMA, managing director, IntrapriseTechKnowlogies, LLC
confessed, " Humm, ok I guess this my 'coming
out' as a gamer. :) I am a regular player of Mobile
Legends Bang Bang. It's a multi-player online
battle arena (MOBA) where two teams of five

people battle against each other across a broad
map. You can choose from an assortment of
heroes to play and each hero has specific skills or
powers. I like it because the games will generally
be between 8 to 20 minutes, so for a break, I can
play one or two games for a mental break and
then go back to what I was going. Every game is
different because you get paired with different
people using different heroes so I never get tired
of it. "
Liz Mason, CPA, CEO and founder, High Rock
Accounting, told us, " My favorite phone game app
is PEAK. Mostly because it's based in science. It's
definitely fun and keeps my brain off of work. "
David Almonte, CPA, CGMA, financial reporting and analysis manager at Amica Insurance,
said, " This will sound pretty nerdy but my
favorite apps I utilize for fun outside of work are
Fidelity and Yahoo Finance as investing and the
stock market are huge passions of mine since
I was a little kid. Games specific, I am usually
