Flick Bowling Holiday "Easter Egg"

While this might not meet the official definition of an "Easter Egg" in an application, I thought it was pretty cool that when I opened Flick Bowling (click opens iTunes) on December 1st, I noticed something different.

First, the background on the splash screen (below) was red instead of the normal blue. The "Flick" logo is in Christmas red and green, and the bowling pins now have red and green stripes.

When you bring up the Free Play mode and start bowling, you'll notice that the usual bunting at the end of the alleys is now supplemented with Christmas lights and a big wreath (see screenshots below).

And a closeup...

I haven't found any more unique items added to this app, but if anyone else finds Christmas or other holiday-related goodies in any other iPhone apps, let us know!

You answered your own question there, and if it's that far away I wouldn't hold my breath.

MotoChaser has a similar christmas theme from the last update - christmas lights on the logo, and the characters have new outfits (slightly christmasy ones).

Merry christmas to all!
