cornholeIt’s not that often that an iPhone app gets censored only in one country, let alone that country being Canada. This happened to a game created JUFTi Games called “Cornhole All-Stars”.

The background of the game is based on the popular real life game where you throw a bag that’s usually filled with corn into a hole that’s about 30 feet away. Apple Canada has taken it the wrong way, specifically the name as it’s most likely to sexually related. They have made the app still available for sale, but censored the entire description. If you check it out in iTunes you’ll see it looking like this: “C******e All-Stars”.

JUFTi says sales of the are slow in Canada (only 20,000) and to celebrate they have slashed the price to only $0.99 now. Here’s a video of the game in action:
