Why is boost 3d only an honourable mention yet cube runner made the list? Imo boost is like cube runner on steroids.

[Phil_Synowiec]

Nice list man! Made me download some older games

[p0rtalthinker101]

Nice list man! Made me download some older games
Thanks! Do you have any suggestions? I want to keep this thread alive ;)

[wootbean]

my suggestions: Frenzic, Eliss, Real Racing, Galcon, Ynth. Ynth and Eliss would be the most unique

[PhagoCychotic]

Stoneloops or Azkend?

[p0rtalthinker101]

Kk ill check out eliss and ynth

[p0rtalthinker101]

Stoneloops or Azkend?
Sadly, stoneloops has been removed from the appstore.

[wootbean]

Kk ill check out eliss and ynth

and real racing's just a good racing game, and Galcon would be a classic "iconic" one :)

[p0rtalthinker101]

Why is boost 3d only an honourable mention yet cube runner made the list? Imo boost is like cube runner on steroids.
if I get two more votes for boost 3d ill add it to the list.

[goldglover411]

is geared on there?

how about cocoto kart online because of its online multiplayer

backbreaker football

Rock band/ TTR3

Sims 3

Fast

NBA 2010

Fifa 10

Boost 3d

*some of these may already be on the list but i may not have seen them

[p0rtalthinker101]

Real racing is already on there :)

Galcon labs is a good contender. the trouble is I have never played it so you guys would have to give me reasons why its on the list :)

[Sukal]

Orion is a very nice card and resource management game. You never heard of it?

[wootbean]

Real racing is already on there :)

Galcon labs is a good contender. the trouble is I have never played it so you guys would have to give me reasons why its on the list :)

Actually I meant the original Galcon, but I guess galcon Labs would be ok...

reasons: iconic app I guess, one of THE BEST ONLINE MULTIPLAYER games ever

[Sandalfo]

My contribution to that list of remarkable games

I am a RPG nut, so I finished a couple of them on the AppStore.
Some were particularly remarkable, among which:
Zenonia, already in your list

Undercroft, perfect oldschool RPG, reminding me of Lands of Lore or Might and Magic III to VI, excellent adventure, polished gameplay and 20 hours of fun

Dungeon Hunter, great graphics, balanced difficulty and good gameplay, maybe a little short

Wolfenstein RPG, great oldschool RPG, lots of humor in storytelling, maybe a little short

Elven Chronicles, nice Super Nintendo style RPG, graphics are average but the story is nice

I also enjoy "retrogaming" among which:

Tetris, excellent gameplay

Pang, a timeless classic, well executed on the iPhone

PuzzleBobble, another classic well converted

Mr Driller, same here a nice classic well adapted to the iPhone

[Sukal]

Palm Heroes TBS is decent, it has alot of depth with a good amount of content.

[ShadowsFall]

Warfare Incorporated (Now Online Multiplayer, a RTS game, this game only leads to one word which is EPIC...)

Hybrid: Eternal Whisper (Great graphics, 16mbs, very long, and active controls)

[Acidbottle]

id like to nominate these following games, whether its for excellent dev support, unique gameplay or simply one of the best in its genre:

Play Marbles
Dungeon Scroll
Undercroft
NanoFighter

[IKnowHow2Fly]

"I found quote a lot of good iphone games here."

I believe you mean quite...?

Anyways, some of my favorites are:
Zenonia
Wolf 3D
Touchgrind

[swishinj]

I have to agree with you :P

[p0rtalthinker101]

Games that will be added: Boost 3D, Sims 3 and Geared. Keep the suggestions rolling!

Edit: added.

[Dylan1696]

I think Invisible Links should be on the list.

[tmcaffeine]

Good list. Could use pictures/links though, although I doubt the forum will let you add that many pictures.

Might I suggest adding Peggle by PopCap Games? Its not any different than Peggle on the computer, and certainly not any less addicting.

[p0rtalthinker101]

Prices for apps will be added eventually.

Unless someone can show me how to make links to the appstore, links will not be added. What would even be beter is hidden links when you click on the price. Help?

[Bogucci]

Charmed deserves to be on the list, however it doesn't have OpenFeint "yet".

[Flickitty]

Prices for apps will be added eventually.

Links can be acquired by going to the app store and right clicking the icon- it will give the option to copy the itunes link.

On a Mac, I am not sure how this is done- I guess I could borrow my girlfriends computer to figure it out.

right click? :confused:

[Flickitty]

right click? :confused:

PCs have two mouse buttons. The LEFT buttons does a Left Mouseclick. Betcha can't guess what the right button does.

Macs only have one button. On my girlfriends MacBook Pro, she doesn't have a button at all, much like the newer Mac Mouse. I think Control or Option key is pressed to simulate a right click.

[Bogucci]

I'm working on a Mac.
Right click on the icon and "copy link" pops up.

[Firestar]

Mac's do have right click - on a MacBook, two fingers of control-click, on a Mac Mini, Mac Pro, or an iMac, control-click or go into System Preferences ( + System Preferences), Mouse, and then map the right button to right click.

ooh I see
3 ways, click with two fingers, or press control and click, or change the trackpad settings so that clicking in the corner is a right click

[p0rtalthinker101]

[p0rtalthinker101]

Asphalt 5
Please give reasons for "why it's on the list;" it might be nice to tell me some reasons what distinguishes/is improved over Real Racing.

If you can't, than four more votes and asphalt 5 gets put on the list.

Peggle has 2 more votes untill put on the list.

[julzsantana15]

[MindJuice]

Charmed deserves to be on the list, however it doesn't have OpenFeint "yet".

The second beta of Charmed with OpenFeint goes out to testers this weekend! I'm aiming to submit it to Apple next week.

[onewithchaos]

I think strategery seriously needs to be here

[mattll]

make the game name thicker so you can see it better

[seyoon]

I don't get why Myst and Assassin's Creed are only in honorables while there are some lame ones on your list. :p

Anyway, lists are subjective to the taste of the one who made it, so.

[wootbean]

Myst is a wonderful game but I don't feel that it's much of an iPod/iPhone 'classic' app

[epedemix]

Alchemize

iBlast Moki

Motion X Poker

Skee Ball

iDrop Dead

Bloons

Poppi

Trism - its pretty iconic

Reiner Knizia Roto

Peggle

But isn't it one of it's kind? Then in the list, Bounce On is there as well as the 2 Rolandos. And how many Match 3s do we have in that list? :D

[p0rtalthinker101]

But isn't it one of it's kind? Then in the list, Bounce On is there as well as the 2 Rolandos. And how many Match 3s do we have in that list? :D
I believe 3.

Myst will definately be moved to the list. Assasions creed really did nothing for me personally, but I'd like to hear everyones side on it as well.

Also, what do people think about bloons? Is it a fun enough game to be added to the list or just an honerable mention?

Peggle just needs one more vote and it will be added to the list.

Keep the suggestions coming!

Cool. Thanks. :)

Assasions creed really did nothing for me personally, but I'd like to hear everyones side on it as well.

Well, in comparison to Brothers In Arms, AC definitely had better graphics and controls. BIA was also shorter.

Since we are talking about "Top Quality" as per the thread title, it's only fitting most of the hard-hitting Gameloft titles should be up there due to their production costs and ground breaking console quality graphics despite what some people will personally feel about a game. One man's sour wine could be another man's well brewed beer. I believe these "big" games (although not all) are mostly what's paving the way for us to have better and better iDevice games (although a few independent devs like Real Racing, Spider, and ATV also contribute their share to this evolution as well).

[p0rtalthinker101]

Of course.

I suppose that brings the addons to: assasions creed; peggle; myst.

Honerable mention: bloons.

I'll add these soon. I am also working hard on adding prices and links for each app. Should take a loong time; but you guys are worth it :)

I always like to hear suggestions/thoughts. Also, something is more likely to be added to the list if you give reasons why it should instead of just saying a games name.

[seyoon]

That's kind of you, mate. I'm sure your hard work will be appreciated.

I'd also request to add TapDefense to the list. It's probably one of the most classic TD (free) for the iDevice and probably what introduced the TD genre to many of our users alongside Fieldrunners. :)

[iGilo]

Where's the amazing 3D roller coaster rush series? Surely this game is more iconic and fun to play than some of the others!

Sure, its got pretty graphics, but really the game is just touching an accelerator to the max speed and watch it ride...

[da shiz wiz 19]

You should prolly add eliminate, unless you already did.

The first ONLINE FPS (BIA was third person i thought) that actually works. I now there are a lot of complaints because of the power cells but that doesnt take away too much from the game, you can still play.

[Walrusaurus]

Why is boost 3d only an honourable mention yet cube runner made the list? Imo boost is like cube runner on steroids.

Boost 3D is on the list at the top as well

What do people think of adding more stats (gameplay; graphics; fun facter; addictivenesz etc) to the list?

[squarezero]

Let me suggest a few other gems.

Karnival: a sort of tycoon/adventure game hybrid with beautiful graphics and casual-yet-deep gameplay.

Ironfist Boxing: The best fighting game in the app store, especially after the most recent update

Snail Mail: Kind of a racing game, kind of a platformer, and all-out charming.

ExZeus: crazy mecha action. Probably one of the most challenging games in the App Store.

G.I. Joyride: The best of the "how far can you go" games. Hilarious concept, great execution.

Aera: One of the most inventive flying games in the App Store. Simply gorgeous.

Heavy Mach: Still one of the best shooters for the platform.

Don't think any of these have been mentioned already.

[wootbean]

Eliss!!!!
Trism
Zen Bound, I thought that's kinda iconic
Koi Pond? :D

[p0rtalthinker101]

Nice suggestions! Area and Heavy Mach is definately going to be added; keep the suggestions coming!

[wootbean]

Nice suggestions! Area and Heavy Mach is definately going to be added; keep the suggestions coming!

I'll look into it.

Edit: think you could explain what RTK stands for so I can search for it?
Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Also I can't believe Beatrider isn't up there. It's the top musical rhythm in the store. Also DDR-S and World of Tunes, those are excellent musical rhythm games too.
Eh the list is far from being complete. ._.';

[p0rtalthinker101]

Heavy Mach!! haven't played that in months but it was great :D

I'm a little confused why GANGSTAR isnt on there. WHAT?!?!?!

Sorry, I cant keep track of every game out there; Gangstar will be added :)

That brings the list of stuff to add to:
Eliss

I'll add these as soon as possible; i'm currently beta testing lots of games and I think i'm coming down with a cold :-(

But nontheless! keep the suggestions coming!

My guess is he feels it is subjective since you have the final say. Also if you haven't played it and there is no lite, then it is unlikely to be on there. As for the thread it is not "top quality", but I find nothing wrong with someone trying to make one and putting effort in it than all those crappy which is better and the scrambled mini best game threads. Kudos to you.

And yes I have tried gangstar lite, and found it pretty great.

[Claridosa]

I have a ton of the games on the list and do not feel they deserve to be in the top 100 apps. What about games like Jules Verne RTMI? It would be much easier if the games/apps were put into categories bc diff people like different types of games. Actually, I should rephrase that......It would be more helpful if the top 100 were put into categories so that one is able to look under the type of games they like to play in order to find more.

Oh gosh. Look at what he has in the top 5 for each category! If you look those games up they have barely any ratings. Not to mention Pathpix????

There is a difference btwn different types of puzzle games. Myst is in the puzzle category on here along with typical "puzzle" games. Myst is more of a RPG with puzzle strategies integrated. Very similar to Jules Verne RTMI. I would never put those games under a puzzle category. Ice Age should also be somewhere on the list.

Then again I agree with the person who mentioned that a list is only as good as the person who created it. Everyone has very different taste. :)

Camzy asks for votes for every category and leaves voting open for a spell. He can't help what might be popular at that time or who votes for what. I think Camzy does an awful lot of work compiling the votes and games and sorting them out. I have gotten a lot of ideas for games by people's votes (I know its a long thread but if you read the individual posts you can get lots of suggestions per genre). FTR many people really enjoy Pathpix and there is even a pro version.

This list on this thread seems to be very subjective and I agree its difficult with new games coming out all the time. I mentioned before that the "next best thing" could be released tomorrow and then the list is already dated. Bottom line - no accounting for taste.

There is also another thread called "Ultimate Puzzle Game Discussion Thread" --

I agree. Aqua globs will be added :)

[epedemix]

I posted a reply once before, but I am going to do it again because I believe these games deserve to be on the list, and I will say why.

Alchemize - This is one of the most polished match 3 game in the appstore, there have been a few updates thus far, and they keep adding different modes to play with. The most recent update added Gone in 20, and that is my favorite one to play. The game has online leader boards, and I believe acheivements are to be in a future update.

Poppi - Definitely top 5 casual pick up and play games in the app store, they added an update a little while back to allow you to start at higher levels, instead of starting from the beginning everytime.

Motion X Poker - Kind of like Yahtzee I guess, but it is more geared towards poker fans. There is a ton of acheivements to get in this game, plus there are a bunch of dice that you can try and win. This game will keep you entertained for a very long time.

Skee-Ball - How could it not be on the list? Casual gaming at its best. Tons of acheviements, Online leaderboards, Prizes to win. It has everything you could possibly want in a game, and it is also very fun.

iBlast Moki - This game created quite a buzz on the forums for a while, it has a ton of content, online leader boards, level editor, and it allows you to play user created levels. Definitely worthy of the list.

Moonlights - Ton of levels, over 100 I believe. A casual physics game that is fun for everyone, it will keep you busy for a good while.

Orbital - Again, casual gaming at its best. When it comes to I got to beat my best score, there is none better.

About the "next best thing;" new games that are popular/awesome/worthy of being on the list will be added (ravensword for example).
Ok so I guess I was still thinking you were on the top 100 or whatever it was when it started. My bad.

How long does a game need to be released to kind of prove itself before consideration? What if a game starts off like gang busters but then people find they beat it quickly or it didn't live up to the hype or what not?

Or like how popular? Fortress Frenzy developed quite a little following and its a great game and would suggest its a little known sleeper. The thread didn't generate nearly as many posts as some of the big names but for a game of that genre its quite good with entertaining dialogue, quick gameplay, and crisp graphics. I also recently went back to playing Bugdom 2 and forgot how great that game is! That is very deep with good graphics and has a lot to do within stages - kind of a big game at the time of its release. I don't even know if some of the newer iPhone/iTouch users even know of that game because it was like an early release in the life of the app store. Is that too old to be listed?

So I guess I am asking what are the qualifiers to be listed.

[kingkong120]

@ p0rtalthinker101

1. Horror Racing: I enjoyed this one. I thought it was a lot of fun due to the various powerups and the controls, although needed some getting used to, were good enough for most people.

2. Luxor: agreed

3. Ramp Champ vs Skee-Ball: I definitely have to vote for skee-ball on this one. Look at eggzbacon's post above

4. Civ Rev vs. C&C: Although biased, as I prefer RTS, I believe that C&C is better. The graphics are nice, and the overall feel is packaged nicely into an iphone app. The content for the money is the main problem, but otherwise, its a very nicely made game.

5. Rope Raider: This game is superior to Rope n' Fly, imo, because the graphics are much nicer; it just feels like a more polished rope n' fly.

6. Star Defense: Eh...didn't really like this one. It had unique 3d graphics at its time, but the overall gameplay wasn't that fun.

7. Worms: No. This was not a good game at all. The animations are choppy, the controls are terrible, even after the update. Maybe I'm being a little too critical on this game, but I think that a lot of people share the same feelings.

[skyye06]

See this is the reason why so many find it subjective. Giving the reason that one is a copy such as rope raider clearly points that out. You do know that rope n' fly was a copy of another game? Anyways yes as others have said I have found that rope raider in almost every aspect better that rope n' fly and its sequel. Yes I have played all three, which is not much I can say about you.

I'm sorry if I seem like I am fueling the fire but I'm not trying too, it's just that you say your not trying to be subjective and I'm just trying to help you with just that.

Oh another to add is radio flare but since reasoning doesn't work to well to get it on there try the lite out, it's still one of my favorite games and really looking forward to the sequel.

One last thing some of the reasons don't give much reason why it should be on there. Such as spore origins, which I didn't enjoy much but again that could be me, but a good accelerometer, excellent graphics and an rpg system doesn't necessarily make it a good game though it does help...it is all about the "fun factor". But that is more fine line I guess so here is another: Run! has a "unique concept" but in actuality it copied quite a few other games that were already out but was the first to combine all the good aspects of the subgenre and make it really fun.

[New England Gamer]

Skyye mentioned run! what about Action Hero? We honestly could go on and on for thousands of apps!

[djflippy]

To link a game directly from the title, type [ app ] game name [ /app ]; It looks better, it's more intuitive, and it saves space.

Trism - Amazing amounts of depth and replay value and a good use of the accelerometer
Eliss - Excellent use of multi-touch technology and an icon for indie gaming
Dungeon Hunter - The most full-featured and graphically stunning Diablo clone on the app store

Questionable games on the list, IMO. Doesn't mean that I don't like them, just that they aren't iconic:
Run!
Boost 3D
Alive 4-Ever
Charmed
Falling Balls
Geared
Paper Toss

I also think that in some cases, there should only be one representative of a certain genre. For instance, I don't think that both Zombieville and Inkvaders need to be on the list. Not sure if both the original and the sequel for some titles need to be included either. Maybe choose the one that is most deserving of the title "iconic".

Puzzle games, like Jabeh for instance, seem to be under-represented on this list. Maybe I just over-estimate their importance, since I like them.

To answer a previous question, RTK Touch stands for Romance of the Three Kingdoms Touch.

Nice work on the list, BTW, p0rtalthinker101.

One last thing some of the reasons don't give much reason why it should be on there. Such as spore origins, which I didn't enjoy much but again that could be me, but a good accelerometer, excellent graphics and an rpg system doesn't necessarily make it a good game though it does help...it is all about the "fun factor". But that is more fine line I guess so here is another: Run! has a "unique concept" but in actuality it copied quite a few other games that were already out but was the first to combine all the good aspects of the subgenre and make it really fun.
Its not entirely my decision only. You just gave me lots of reasons why rope n fly should be replaced with rope raider.

I never did finish spore origins but because of the beautiful graphics and customizable system I figured itshould atleast be a contender. I put it under the honorable mention but when I moved alot of other games from there on the list I figured id just add all of them.

[p0rtalthinker101]

To link a game directly from the title, type [ app ] game name [ /app ]; It looks better, it's more intuitive, and it saves space.

Trism - Amazing amounts of depth and replay value and a good use of the accelerometer
Eliss - Excellent use of multi-touch technology and an icon for indie gaming
Dungeon Hunter - The most full-featured and graphically stunning Diablo clone on the app store

Questionable games on the list, IMO. Doesn't mean that I don't like them, just that they aren't iconic:
Run!
Boost 3D
Alive 4-Ever
Charmed
Falling Balls
Geared
Paper Toss

I also think that in some cases, there should only be one representative of a certain genre. For instance, I don't think that both Zombieville and Inkvaders need to be on the list. Not sure if both the original and the sequel for some titles need to be included either. Maybe choose the one that is most deserving of the title "iconic".

Puzzle games, like Jabeh for instance, seem to be under-represented on this list. Maybe I just over-estimate their importance, since I like them.

To answer a previous question, RTK Touch stands for Romance of the Three Kingdoms Touch.

Nice work on the list, BTW, p0rtalthinker101.

Thanks :)

I'll try to do that link thing sometime.

Checking up Jabeth, RTK Touch and Trism.

I thought Dungeon Hunter was on there. If it isen't I will most definaely add it.

I am currently adding lots of games people have suggested:

heavy mach
eliss
aera
gangstar
aqua globs
iblast moki
moonlights.

I will also look over all the apps on the list again and delete anything that may not be considered worthy (spore perhaps).

Most of the apps you said you thought werent worthy I really love, and some of them are most certainly iconic (falling balls and paper toss for sure).

You might be interested to know I am probably going to mae another list categorized by genre (all the castle defense games in one area, all dual stick shooters in another).

[drelbs]

"Command & Conquer Red Alert"
This or civilization revolution? which is better?

...

"Worms"
Never got to play it. Impressions?

Hard to compare C&CRE and Civ Rev - they're very different games.

and Worms has nothing on Star Hogs. ;)

[p0rtalthinker101]

Hey guys,

Just updated the list with the new games. I tried the link into title thing but it was way to tedious, so I decided to scratch that.

Im finding it hard to do anything these days, what with MW2 and L4D2 coming out, and getting a job at TheCurrentGamer, as well as playing all these cool new games that are out on the iphone :)

A category list is next on the spreadsheet.

[SMN]

Good work :)

[dmbfan1192]

Skee Ball is far superior to Ramp Champ in every way...

[Sukal]

Minisquadron

[p0rtalthinker101]

Skee Ball is far superior to Ramp Champ in every way...
Good to know.

Ravensword and Skeeball are next on the list for addition. Keep the suggestions coming!

[SicMX]

Need for Speed Underground: Fun gameplay and excellent controls

X2 Football: Best football game out there

Warefare Inc. : Way more fun than Red Alert, hope they bring out the original C&C series to the store

JetCarStunts: Unique and very fun racer

[frendil]

CoD WAW zombies, i know its expensive and all but good graphics, controls and extremely replayable, it also contains online co op.

I also agree with warfare inc. Way cheaper and plays better than C&C red alert.

And also NFCU, not as good as real racing but was the first decent 3D racing game on the ipod touch/iphone.

[p0rtalthinker101]

Anybody take advantage of these awesome black friday sales yet?

[Grumps]

Haven't been updated for awhile? Missing out on Call of Duty: Zombies and Ravensword!

[Aurora]

The list haven't been updated in like a month now. Oo

[Somerandomdude]

How about Beneath a Steel Sky and Monkey Island: Special Edition? Both classic adventure games redone to fit the iPhone, so that you can play these on the go. Also, it brings adventure games to a new generation so more people can see what these games were like. They were both ported extremely well and deserve to be on the list.

[p0rtalthinker101]

The list haven't been updated in like a month now. Oo
Correction: 14 days. No need to worry; I'm keeping a list of stuff to add.

I want to wait till there's at least 10 games to add. It's really a pain to edit the Microsoft word doc, then copy-edit-delete-paste-bold the titles.

Your right; those are two great games. Thell be added.

[RKRigney]

Thanks a lot for doing this, man, I really appreciate you for all the hard work that must've went into making it. I only recently got an iPod Touch so I'm finding a lot of cool games by reading this. This is definitely getting bookmarked. Also, I have a suggestion: Have you played the App Store version of Catan? It's very well put together for the platform, and it's one of the best upcoming board games out there.

[hockeyfight]

Minisquadron

[Clymos]

I would like to propose uniwar, auditorium and ynth be put on the list.

[p0rtalthinker101]

No I havent; checking it out. and your so very welcome :)

[The_Running_Man]

I'd suggest adding Sword Of Fargoal. Even though it just came out today.

[p0rtalthinker101]

KK, i'll add it.

Sorry, ive been suuuper busy, and still am,but I've figured i've put off updating the list for a while, so expect to see these games tomorrow:

beneath a steel sky
monket island
catan
skee-ball
ravensword
I dig it: expeditions
jet car stunts
cod: waw zombies
sword of fargoal

Anybody get the new doodle jump update yet? its AWESOME

[p0rtalthinker101]

List updated! Put links in the titles and added a whole clusterbunch of new games!

[p0rtalthinker101]

What do people think?

[wootbean]

Neither Labyrinth nor its sequel are in the list?!?! :eek:

[MidianGTX]

Neither Labyrinth nor its sequel are in the list?!?! :eek:

This. I could live without the first game being there though, since Labyrinth 2 is basically the same thing injected with more awesome.

[p0rtalthinker101]

No worries; I've putten labyrinth 2 on the list of stuff to add :)

keep the suggestions coming!

[wootbean]

haha I just noticed that for Developer for Sway you put "Illusion Apps" while for Touchgrind you wrote "Illusion Labs"
Isn't Illusion Labs the publisher though? Didn't ReadyFireAim develop Sway and Codify Labyrinth 2

[p0rtalthinker101]

haha I just noticed that for Developer for Sway you put "Illusion Apps" while for Touchgrind you wrote "Illusion Labs"

Lol. I'm not quite sure, I'll be sure to check that out and change that if necessary

[MidianGTX]

Illusion Labs is the dev team, Codify was just one guy within the team and did Lab1 on his own (before they decided to become Illusion Labs if I remember correctly).

ReadyFireAim is also a dev team but I think both teams developed Sway together, rather than one of them publishing it.

[p0rtalthinker101]

Are my eyes seeing things or did apple update the search to show when the app was last updated but got rid of the developers name?

Also, what does AB stand for? On Sway it says illusion labs AB and ReadyFireAim AB...

[MidianGTX]

Use AppShopper?

[p0rtalthinker101]

Yep I use it but I searched for sway on itunes this time since I had it open already...

[RKRigney]

Let's update this thing: Inotia 2 and Angry Birds are my picks!

[p0rtalthinker101]

Thanks for the bump. I plan on adding more games after Christmas (Inotia 2; OMG Pirates!; Geo Spark and lots more). If anyone else has suggestions, feel free to post; I dont bite :)

[Bochu]

Others have mentioned it and I agree: Undercroft is definitely one to consider for this list. The gameplay is great and has stood out for me as one of the most fun RPGs. Creating your own party is unique from the other RPGs and the upgradable talents are fun. Please consider it.

[SirGawaine]

Nice list! I would like to point out however, that the price of minigore is 1.99 now instead of 0.99

[p0rtalthinker101]

Sure; I definately will

[p0rtalthinker101]

Unfortunately its too much of a hassle to keep track of all the prices. If you read at the end it says "prices subject to change." :)

[p0rtalthinker101]

Hey guys! Just letting you know that since its after christmas im working on the list again! lots of new games will hopefully be added later today.

[da shiz wiz 19]

Take note the free version is the full one; it just has ads.

[p0rtalthinker101]

Hey guys; thanks for your suggestions!

I got alot of work done on the microsoft word doc yesterday; hoping to completely finish it today and edit the posts accordingly.

[TheProxy]

Parcel Panic is pretty solid.

[Will090]

Get Labyrinth 2 on here or I'm gonna bust some heads

[Gryphon23]

I think that Isle of 8-Bit treasures should be on the list. :)

[wootbean]

Get Labyrinth 2 on here or I'm gonna bust some heads

Labyrinth 2's not here?!?!

[p0rtalthinker101]

Hey thanks for the support guys. Sorry there hasent been ANY updates for like a whole month, ive just been so busy and putting this off every time I try to get around to it.

I am commited to updating it though, so thanks.

@albie09 Novas already on there ;)
@will090 oh! I forgot that one. added.

[funkynubman]

Okay, this thread is stupid. Where the hell is Enviro-Bear 2010?

[p0rtalthinker101]

Whoa, slow down there. It might 'just' be possible I forgot to add that one to the list. Would it be cool if I added it? :)

[MystikSun]

Did anyone catch the error that BIA is actually a TPS?

[p0rtalthinker101]

List Updated!
New features:
* Games are now categorized into a genre format (all match three games for instance is in a match three category).
* A whole host of new games :)

What i'm thinking about doing next is adding a link for the lite version of an app if it has one. What do you guys think?

Keep the suggestions coming!

[p0rtalthinker101]

So what do people think of the new format? Is it easier to find the games yours primarily interested in?

[p0rtalthinker101]

Bumped

[Zolty]

Zomfg, where is PvZ, GTA and Inotia 2?!?!?!!??

:mad::eek::mad::eek::mad::eek::mad:

[madmud101]

How about Ragdoll Blaster 2? You have only got Ragdoll Blaster 1.

Edit: and Tilt To Live :D

[Strategyking92]

angry birds
all-in-one gamebox
tap studio
backbreaker football
minisquadron
boom brigade
surviving high school (i know...)
battle bears
pocket tanks
Scene it! Movies
totemo
lucky coins
classics (iPhone books app)
kanon drum
Field Goal
TonePad

most of these are probably on there, but I got to naming and I couldn't stop
edit: I was also wondering if the font size for the category names could be bigger, so it would be easier to find them, instead of accidentally going over it.

[Tocarina]

Enviro Bear 2010
Genre: Racing

LOL :p
