Clone Booth Review

Our friends over at Jackbox Games have sent us Clone Booth for us to review. Jackbox Games has a few other mobile applications like  You Don’t Know Jack, but Clone Booth is the first in their new Another Weird Line brand of applications. Clone Booth is another photo application, but it has few tricks up it’s sleeve. It allows you to create new funny, silly, or even serious(sometimes) photos. You can clone or move your self in to other images. Will this be the next big photography editing application of Summer 2013? We will answer that in the full review, which begins right now.

User Interface

The design of Clone Booth is done very nice, it shows off what the application can do and provides an easy way to navigate. Once the application has opened you are presented with a very clean and simple menu system. You get the Clone Booth logo and an example of what the application can do. The Jackbox Games and Another Weird Thing logos are on board, a settings button is on board as well. With the new portrait button, you are opening up the many different collections. For instance they options are Folks, Couples, Guys And Gals, Spawn, Solo, Nuptials, Folks II, and Spawn II. These collections are the photos that you can clone yourself into. They will be releasing more collections in the future, these will be either free or available as an in app purchase. Launched with the Clone Booth application, you can use download the Babies collection for $0.99. Some of the photos that are in the collections you will have to download, for free, to use. Downloading this content can be done quite quickly over WiFi or a Data connection. After you choose the photo you want to clown your self into, you will take a new photo or choose one from your photos on your device. You can switch between your front and rear facing camera. You can these adjust each photo to your liking. Jackbox Games did a great job with the user interface in Clone Booth.

Photo Fun

Clone Booth is all about putting your face, or your friends face, or even your dogs face all over the place. You can do just that with the Clone Booth and the end result is hilarity. While it doesn’t rely so much on the photo editing, it is the awesome collections of photos you can place the image into. These photos are from many different time periods, from the past to the present. Many of these collections are funny, thought-provoking, and depending on how you use them freighting. These photos that you make are perfect for many different uses. Clone Booth did include some basic editing tools that will help you get the job done. After choosing or taking the photo you can pinch to zoom and move the image around, this way you can make it fit nicely in the face hole. The photo that you choose will be used for all of the faces, I hope they add multi face support in a future update. However, you can manipulate that one image so much, that it is not that big of an issue. You can change the contrast, brightness, or color of the image. You can flip the image, to make it look backwards. When you save the photo it does have a Clone Booth logo in the bottom right hand corner. I hope they give you an option to remove this later as well. Especially because it is a paid application. All of these editing tools and collections make for a huge amount of photo fun in Clone Booth.

Sharing

Jackbox Games knows that sharing is caring, and they included many sharing options in Clone Booth. Instagram is one of the biggest hits when it comes to image sharing, luckily you can share directly to Instagram from the application. It will let you write-up the caption for Instagram right in the application and from there you can send it over to the application. You can save the photograph right to your camera or gallery application. This way if you really wanted to import it into another photo editing application, you do have the option. You can send it via text message and an email as well. Facebook and Twitter have not been left out either, these are built-in to the application as well for sharing. I hope they add Snapchat sharing support in the near future. Your creations or clones, as they call it, stay in the My Clones section of the main menu. You can always go back to them later, and re-send them, re-share them, or even re-save them. You can also delete it from the My Clones section as well. Sharing your clones is not something to worried about with Clone Booth.

Bottom Line

Clone Booth from Jackbox Games is one of the most unique and entertaining applications I have reviewed and used. You can take your face and really put it in many different places. Clone Booth would be great to have on your phone at parties or social gatherings, you could create really fun selfies and funny photos. I hope that they add Snapchat integration, the option to remove the Clone Booth logo from your clones, and multi face support. However, Clone Booth is still a great application and if you get tired of using the collections that come pre-loaded you can download the free ones or buy another collection via an in app purchase. I highly suggest you take a look at Clone Booth, as it is a very fun application that will let you make hilarious photos! Clone Booth is currently on sale in the Google Play Store and other mobile phone application stores for just $0.99. This is it’s inaugural 50% off sale, after this sale is done it will go up to $1.99. For More Information On Clone Booth, Please Click Here. We would like to thank Jackbox Games for providing us with a copy of “Clone Booth”.
