    We've all purchased alot of the the great App Store games, but I was wondering what games have come out that are really fun to play, but aren't extremely popular. I thought this would be a great topic to start so we can bring out some awesome games, that not very many people know about.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    doodlejump and copterkid and heavymach are all fun games that not everyone knows about that you should definately consider
     
  3. Definitely that would have to be: Mummy's Revenge

    You can try the Lite version if you'd like. Enjoy

    Gameplay video:



    Here's the long thread about the game and the new FREE episodes that come with each update: http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=19832

    HeavyMach was pretty fun. Pathpix, subway shuffle, wordfu, moxie, frenzic, and besiegement are all great.

    Those are the ones off the top of my head that really deserve to be in the top 100 but can't seem to get the sale numbers.

    in my opinion, mummy's revenge outshines even the "great" zombieville USA.
    So yes, get that. and um...people don't know about doodle jump and it's somehow the number 5 game in the appstore..
     
  13. Wow, you just made my night. I'm going to go to sleep happy now. Thanks a lot. :D

    oh..you're kinda, sorta, maybe the developer..:D. hahaha but ya, keep up the good work man. Your attention to the game has definitely made it better than any side scroller in the app store so far.

    Nighty night then.

    Orions is the best game in the store, and not many people have heard of it.

    Pandemonium is a classic game, but it was panned at launch due to lag. It plays excellently on the 3GS, though.

    Block Breaker Deluxe 2 is my favorite Gameloft game, though it could do for an update.

    MotionX Poker Quest is addictive for a while; well worth three bucks.

    Pocket Tanks is the best artillery game in the store, and there is a free version to try out.

    Sway is a killer app for the iPhone; so much polish, character, and fun crammed into one game. It is a shame this is no longer the best selling app in the store.

    Dropship is a very good game in the Choplifter genre, with the attention to detail one would expect from ngmoco. Not a lot of sales, though. Plus+ support would be appreciated.

    Mondo Solitaire (Or Top 5) is an excellent and native-feeling Solitaire client for the iPhone. The interface is great, though some of the animations can be a bit jerky on the original iPhone. On a 3GS, this thing is amazing, though.

    Jabeh is a classic puzzle game that can be described as a perfect mix between Sudoku and Minesweeper. Fans of both should buy this immediately.

    Anyways, those are some of my favorite lesser known apps in the store, and I still have every single one of them on my iPhone today.
