    Any suggestions for a game like Kingdom Rush, but for iPhone?

    I really haven't bought anything in the past month, and iOS gaming has felt really stagnant to me. So my question is that if you had to recommend any 3 games to somebody, what would they be? Preferably games under 2.99 and don't drain a lot of battery
    EDIT:Age doesn't matter. The 3 best games EVAR

    Don't recall Pocket RPG being too much of a battery hog, and it's one of my favorite iOS values to date.

    I remember there was a clone that came out a while ago, but I wouldn't get that (not sure if it is still on the App Store).

    Ski Safari (so addictive)
    Final Freeway/2R (they are both a ton of fun, if you like racing games)
    Junk Jack or Waking Mars (can't decide between the two, but both rock)

    Anyone tried Sky Gamblers: Air supremacy?
    I read some reviews and they all say the same thing...
    the graphic is WWWWOOW..but what about the gameplay? Is it an "ace combat" thing or what?

    Well, Waking Mars is my GotY so far, but it's an absolute battery hog. If he/she's looking for something that isn't too demanding in that regard, Waking Mars is definitely NOT the game. It's one of the worst in that respect. But everyone should buy it anyway because it's a freaking masterpiece.

    Through the rain.
    Me and a friend are looking for a good game to play over Bluetooth. Anyone know of an adventure game or rpg that is at least mildly long we could play for a while? Something you could really get into.

    It's a great game and looks great on the iPhone 4, there's tons of planes, multiplayer etc. one of the best games on the app store IMO

    I second DH2. I'll try and think of a few more.

    Yeah, it's definitely the closest thing to Ace Combat on the App Store.

    Played through Pocket RPG, tried all the classes, and I'm still playing my archer. I've gotten about 10 hours or so of gameplay out of it. Not bad for a $1 game.

    I was loading the buy option at 99%...you made it 100%!
    Amazing game..amazing soundtrack...but MAN it's devilishly fast :D:D
    And I remember I played pretty well with good old Tony Hawk back in the days...maybe I'm out of practice. This is the right game to get back on my feet again!
