    Cool. Have you found any other apps that do this? Or did you hear about this one from someone else?

    No beef at all with the recommendation...just not sure how it fits with forum rules and such. :)

    I tell you what, I'll email the dev when I get a chance. I wonder if support was dropped from the game, because, judging from the speed of the unlock, it doesn't even bother pinging a server. Doesn't ask for your itunes code, etc.

    Just click-unlock.

Massive nukes and unique defensive weapons keep things interesting, while advanced weapons such as the guided missile use the built-in accelerometer for real-time control.

    - Intense, explosive battles versus the computer in 2 game modes: Quick Match mode pits you against your enemy with a random assortment of weapons. Campaign mode rewards you with the chance to earn new weapons in the upgrade store after every level.
    - Practice mode to refine your ability to take out your opponent.
    - 3 difficulty levels to keep you challenged as you improve.
    - 12 weapons in 8 classes: conventional missiles, nuclear missiles, guided missile, shield, earthquake affector unit, laser, jump jet and wormhole.
    - 3 advanced weapons (guided missile, earthquake affector unit, gamma fusion laser) use the built-in accelerometer for real-time input.
    - 3 defensive weapons can keep you out of harm's way.
    - Beautiful 3D graphics and user interface.

    Don't know if Zombie Road Trip was recommended yet, but it's such a good game. On the surface it looks like another endless driving game a la Endless Road Trip but there are some features that make it addictive and superior IMO

    1) You're being chased a zombie horde. If they catch up to you, your run is over. So the whole flip/land well to boost actually has purpose.

    2) You tap the screen to shoot your selected weapon and kill zombies. This is the key difference and best feature. There is actually skill involved here. Sure you can just blast away. But for more points, what about doing a backflip than timing your shots perfect to get two midair headshots in the same jump? It's challenging and requires timing

    3) The game has a nice cartoony art style, cool vehicles, and the different weapons have their own strengths

    Awesome game...like Extreme Road Trip with added elements of shooting and obstacles.

    It's ad supported, but the adds aren't during gameplay and aren't very intrusive. The IAPs don't seem to be necessary.

    Thanks for the recommendation. Adding to OP.

    Bit confused here...

    Are we listing older games that have been or are currently temporarily free, or FTP titles as well?

    Not a huge deal, but I'm not sure highlighting FTP games matters?
