Luck is certainly involved, but there is plenty of strategy as well. And you still have some influence over the results of the dice once they're rolled.

Well, I dug my iPad 2 out of mothballs a few days ago, and discovered that I had no idea what games to put on it. So I figured I would start with asking you guys:

What new RPGs should I put on it?

I'm trying out Ku: Shroud of the Morrigan, but I know there are most likely some great RPGs that sing on the iPad.

Some games I have already played (some more than others):

Infinity Blade 1,2
Final Fantasy 1,2,3,4
Various Freemium city/farm/town building games
Various KRPGs
Ravensword: Shadowlands
The Bard's Tale
Stuff by Spacetime Studios (Arcane Legends, Pocket Legends, etc....)
Bladeslinger
Dragon Island Blue
Wraithborne
Knights of Pen & Paper
King of Dragon Pass
Most of Kairosoft's stuff
Lili
The World Ends With You
Bullet Time HD
Mission Europa
10000000
Rogue Touch
Sword of Fargoal
ORC: Vengeance
Spell Sword
Brand New Boy
Elder Sign: Omens
Waking Mars
Dragon Keeper
Dungeon Hunter 1,2,3
Don't Run With A Plasma Sword
Aquaria
Dark Meadow
A slew of Tower Defense games (Lich Defense to Gem Keeper to the Defender Chronicles series to Fieldrunners 2 and back)
Anomaly Warzone Earth
Mage Gauntlet
Squids
Tyrian
Eternity Warriors 1,2
Eternal Legacy
Imaginary Range
Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery
Galaxy on Fire 2
Battle for Wesnoth
Battleheart
Shadow Era
Aralon: Sword & Shadow
Dungeon Defenders
God of Blades
The Sandbox
Dragon Fantasy
Tunnel Tail

So, my question is this:

What RPGs not on this list should I get, and are they great on iPad?

Some ground rules:

Think twice about KRPG recommendations. I have a hard time finding KRPGs that I can truly enjoy beyond a perverse desire to grind, grind some more, and to top off all the grinding with a grinding cherry on top. If you know a good KRPG that has less grinding than usual, I'll check it out, but I make no promises.

Any genre will do, as long as it has 2 hallmarks of RPGs: customization, and story. The story need not have logic or sense. The customization could be any aspect of the game.

The game must be great, and you need to let me know why IYHO you think it's great. I'll listen, and I won't judge you ^_^

No endless runners. Not for the iPad. Unless you have a recommendation that is iPad-specific and that'll knock my socks off. If it is universal, it'll end up on my iPhone 4S instead.

Be aware that this is from my "Purchased" listing on my iPad. So please, if you suggest an iPhone-only RPG, be aware that I may not take a look at it, at least not at first.

A couple games I won't consider:

Bastion (have it on PC)
The Walking Dead (will get it for PC)

I'll update this as I hear people's feedback.

Alright TA members, have at it!
