The Clubic editorial staff presents its weekly selection of five applications that are worth seeing.
This week, Clubic makes you discover rather varied applications. On the program: a retro console emulator, a directory of the best establishments that offer beer as well as their details, a smartphone cleaning utility, a handy tool in the event of a problem on the highway and a multiplayer game very friendly.
RetroArch
To download
- Many emulators in one application
- Very complete (and not necessarily very accessible to the layman)
- Totally free
Thanks to its huge catalog of emulated consoles and its total freeness, RetroArch is undoubtedly one of the most complete applications on the market in the field. It allows you to consolidate all of your retro games into a single entity, all without compromising on performance. This little bomb will still require a little training and learning, because it does not necessarily work in the same way as most other emulators available on the market (not to mention a fairly large number of menus offered).

RetroArch is a video game console emulator. Running on the Android system, the application allows you to rediscover the pleasure of playing retro games, without the need to buy a compatible console. Thus, RetroArch is able to run games from the GameBoy Advance, the Super NES, the PS2 or even the PSP. Other consoles are supported and therefore make RetroArch one of the most complete emulators on the market. The strong point of this application lies in the fact that it is completely free and free of any advertising content. On the other hand, it should be noted that its visual interface could put off uninformed users due to its unintuitive handling.
Mister Good Beer
To download
- See at a glance all the bars offering beer around you
- Filter by budget
- Discover the drinks menu offered by the establishments
Mister Good Beer will delight beer lovers who don’t want to lose their wallet!
Mister Good Beer will delight beer lovers who don’t want to lose their wallet!
Mister Good Beer allows you to quickly view the prices of beers in the bars around you. Quite popular with students, the application notably offers the possibility of consulting the Happy Hours schedules as well as the price reductions over this period. However, although the idea of Mister Good Beer is generous, not all establishments are present there yet, and the majority of these do not display their full menu on the application. A promising and free tool, to test for beer lovers.
CCleaner
To download
- Suitable for less experienced users
- Quick Scan
- Risky deletion alerts
A pioneer in the system cleaning sector, CCleaner is still the benchmark. A reputation that is now considered overrated insofar as the application fishes both in terms of efficiency (unconvincing in-depth cleaning) and confidentiality (automatic collection of usage data). However, it must be recognized that it has a readable interface and intuitive operation that appeal to users who are not very comfortable with computers. The numerous optimization modules are easily identifiable, the details of operations and the analysis reports are understandable, and the alerts prevent risky manipulations.

CCleaner is a utility specialized in the cleaning and automatic analysis of the smartphone on which it is installed. If the operations can be performed manually, CCleaner offers considerable time savings on them, since the entire process is automated. From a functionality point of view, CCleaner makes itself useful for finding and deleting unused files. The tool also makes it possible to identify heavy and energy-consuming applications with the aim of speeding up the smartphone.
Highway SOS
To download
- Call the nearest motorway station with a smartphone
- Very easy to use interface
SOS Autoroute is an essential application for users of the French motorway network. In the event of an accident or breakdown, it provides quick and easy assistance.
SOS Autoroute is an essential application for users of the French motorway network. In the event of an accident or breakdown, it provides quick and easy assistance.
Any driver who has already taken the French motorway network knows the usefulness of the orange bollards positioned on the emergency lane. SOS Autoroute is an application that allows you to use the same system for connecting with the emergency services via your smartphone instead of one of the terminals. The app works by transmitting the geolocation of the caller to the interlocutor located in the nearest security post. It is also possible to send a photo for certain situations. Available in five languages, the application is simple to use, as its visual interface is reduced to a large button which allows you to contact an operator.
Brawl Stars
To download
- Quick games
- Ability to enjoy the game without going through the wallet box
- Easy handling
Supercell stays true to its reputation by delivering quality gaming. If you are looking for a mobile MOBA that is quality and free-to-play, Brawl Stars is made for you. Thanks to its quick start, its reduced loading times and its express games, it is the perfect game for hassle-free entertainment. On the other hand, more committed gamers may quickly feel limited and prefer more accomplished equivalents (LoL, Arena of Valor…). For everyone else, go for it, it’s free!

Brawl Stars is a free-to-play MOBA game. You play as a character responsible for collecting gems and keeping them as long as possible. Your weapon allows you to attack members of the opposing team or defend yourself. In the event of a deathblow, your character loses his gems, but returns to the arena to continue the game. The latter ends when one of the teams to take part in the fight has enough gems. Being able to start a short game very quickly is a good point in our eyes, because this makes the game quite addictive.
