    I've been impressed by the sheer simplicity of Canabalt.

    What are some worthy games that only need one finger press (like Canabalt) or just use one finger to control the games (like Ion Charge?)

    I guess we could also include one-handed games that also use the accelerometer like Doodle Jump, and Touch Lander. (though I'm not sure you can play Doodle Jump one-handed and shoot the baddies...can you?)


    Single Press
    =========
    Canabalt
    iCopter (and variants)

    One Finger(or Thumb)
    ========
    Ion Charge
    Orbital
    Galcon/Galcon Labs
    Arachnadoodle
    Card Ninja
    Mazefinger
    Tetris
    Card Ninja
    Mazefinger
    UnBlock Me
    Pathpix
    Chop chop ninja
    Most turn based strategy like Uniwar, Battle for Wesnoth, etc
    Mr AahH!
    Frenzic
    Apocalypse Zombie Fish
    GeoSpark
    Ramp Champ
    Paper Toss: World Tour

    One Handed
    =========
    Doodle Jump
    Touch Lander
    Auto Crisis
    Space Ninja
    Labryinth 2 (and variants)
    Boost 3D
    Crazy Turkey Blast
    Hot Dog down a Hallway
    FIFA 10 (using accelerometer controls)
    Real Racing (using auto accelerate)

    Post more below and I'll update this.

    Thanks!

    I'd say canabalt and aqua globs. Chop chop ninja is also good
    and yes it is possibleto play with one finger.

    Doodle jump is also great, I keep comic back to it and o don't HHS to exercise any fingers!

    I forgot about strategy games! Xeno wars and 2012 aliens vs zombies are my personal favourite. Xeno wars is cool because it's actually a hybrid of match 3 and strAtegy which works surprisingly well
    and 2102 Z vs A is great because it actually
    does require a certain amount of strategy yet is still fun for casual gamers. The amazing art style is also a plus.

    Hook Champ. Well sorta. You can play Doodle Jump without any fingers too. Maybe your toes or something.
