Sometimes all you need in a stale relationship is a good laugh. Red Hands could help with that.
If the name of the app doesn’t give away what it is already, Red Hands is a virtual hand slapping game that pits two players against each other in a test of wits and reactions.
When you play with your partner, you’re bound to have the giggles as the both of you attempt to slap each other’s hands. Of course, you could just put away the phone and play the game with your actual hands, but if you want to avoid the pain, give Red Hands a try.
