Finding highly rated but unknown games.

[nksw]

I wanted a way to find highly rated games that weren't in the popular list so I wrote a script to help me locate them. I thought it might be useful for others so I built a little website to display the results. You can check it out here:

Let me know what you think and if it helps you find anything cool. Thanks!

The new app, AppFlow is a great way of finding out little gems too. It's excellent. WPCentral gave it a mini review.

Nice find! The hidden gems in AppFlow are all clumped together (apps&games, paid&free) into one list that is limited to about 15 items so winphonegems can still provide some more value if you don't see anything interesting in AppFlow. It's cool to see we agree on some of the hidden gems though

Thanks for the link, being new to WP7 OS I am getting up to speed on apps and where to get things.

My game Taptitude is the highest rated app (and yet unknown, #77 on top downloads) according to bing visual search:

For the record, this post should have been from me. I don't know how wpcentral f'ed up and logged me in as camaroguy, but I started a thread in General Discussion about the issue because it's very disturbing that your account can switch to some other random account (i dont know who camaroguy is).
