    Hidden Retina Games?

    I am pretty sure that DropZap 2 and Train Defense have iPad Retina Graphics although it's not mentioned in their official app description. And both recommended puzzles are free right now for a limited time:

    What do you think? Retina or not?

    Okay, DropZap 2 was last updated Nov 17, 2011—but since there are only vector graphics and fonts it's something like "automatic retina" maybe?

    Your screenshot is 1024x768?

    Back in March the developer of Instapaper said that he made a mistake in assuming a retina iPad would automatically use retina artwork. It doesn't; you have to build it with the relevant XCode version, which rules out anything built before March 2012.

    Moreover, I don't think 3D engines automatically update themselves to arbitrary resolutions without developer input.
