Lots of cracking apps reviewed at Life of Android this week. We’ve been eviscerating pandas, building race-winning cars, slicing ropes, creating bizarre contraptions and, finally, making some pretty pictures. Whichever way you slice it, we’ve been busy playing around with an awful lot of apps that are almost universally not awful. Here are the top five…
