    That's not what I think he/she was referring to when they asked about "fighting" games.

    Look at that persons post count/date joined. It's just a troll, trying to promote that game anyway they can.

    I don't have TDKR yet and I'm not sure if it's sandbox, but it's open-world. That's The Dark Knight Rises btw. Also, Eden World Builder and Minecraft Pocket Edition are obviously open-world sandboxes ;)

    If you were referring to titles like minecraft open-world, there is Minecraft Pocket edition, Eden, and probably the best for ios with a hell lot of content : Junk Jack. Junk jack has a pretty sweet community forum going on, with lots to craft, explore and build.

    If you want more of a action oriented open world, heres a few: GTA 3, GTA Chinatown Wars, The Dark Knight Rises, Gangstar series by gameloft, The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spiderman, Backstab (Gameloft's take on Assassin's Creed)

    I tried playing Call of Duty: Zombies but it was a little too laggy for me due to hardware limitations...personally, i like RPGs, any strategy games in general, but i am open to all suggestions.

    Since you like RPGs, definitely get Mage Gauntlet and Dungeon Raid. MG has tons of content, and DR is an amazing RPG/Match 3 hybrid. There's a lite version for DR if you want to try it out first

    Try the kariosoft games,Tiny Tower and Pocket Planes are good.So are Silver Sword and Zday if you like RPG like games.For adventure you could get Lara Croft( it may work for you).And for arcade games War Games or Fix it Felix are pretty good.Hope these helped.

    I'm looking for games that I can sit down and relax with. Nothing terribly involving. For some reference, I think that Pocket Planes is sort of nice, but there are too many moments where you don't have anything to do. I have been playing the Pathpix series to solve this situation, but seeing as I've finished the series, I need something else.

    On another note, I'm looking for something that is really "fresh". Something that isn't overdone on the app store like match-3s, and maybe something that plays to the strength of iOS devices. My example for this is eBoy FixPix, where you use the accelerometer to "fix" pictures.

    Ok, got a 15 dollar itunes card. I loved tiny tower and pocket planes and dont forget pocket frogs. I dont mind if its freemium, just as long as its fair. (You can earn the paid currency). I also like games like zenonia or mage gauntlet.

    Edit: Also, i own all the kairosoft games.

    Have you tried out Super QuickHook? It's from the same guys that made Mage Gauntlet.

    Ok, I'm going to give this a try once I get wifi. Thanks. Edit: tried it out and...it was good but, it's more of a arcade game then anything else.

    I recently got New World Colony (iOS board game) and i have fallen in love with it. It's fun, balanced, has multiplayer, and awesome ai for single player. Highly recommend it.

    @deadlock32 don't play fps games, battlefield:BC2 was the last good one i've played.
