Head's up!

The app store has a REALLY decent HTTYD2 app out right now! It's completely free (with some in app purchasing available). The gameplay is fun right now, and it looks like it will get even more exciting when the "battle mode" comes out. You pretty much build Berk, and Hiccup and Toothless go exploring to find new islands and dragons. It also actually has a lot of character dialogue, some stuff that feels very second movie (I've met Valka). So, if you didn't know about this game, I'd give it a try! I must warn you, it's pretty catchy, and you'll be checking your device constantly to ensure that all your dragons are working to collect the resources needed for training and building. This is by far the best HTTYD app to date. Oh, and as you can see from an above image, it can send you push notifications! And who doesn't like to see Hiccup and Toothless messages on their phone?

Also, I suppose considering this image is kinda dark and macabre, expect a slight explanation and my reasoning behind it.
