I am sure Battleheart was inspired by Knights of the Phantom Castle but the controls are similar (although Battleheart is simplified). I revisited it recently and the graphics hold up very well on my 5G although not widescreen. It's one of my favorite iOS games but never got much attention.

One of your favourite IOS games ... That will do for me ! (Goes straight to AppStore !)

If you do download Knights of the Phantom Castle let me know what you think.

Silversword. It's a marvelous little homage to the original Bard's tale games, with one of the most active and responsive devs of any game I've ever seen. It's constantly being updated, and has a rediculous amount of content. Also, you get to customize a party of SEVEN adventurers. I can't reccommend this game enough if you're looking for a truly old school experience.

It's been a month since some new ideas have come up. Anybody find any others they've enjoyed playing that are flying under the radar?

Kingturn has gotten some attention but is sort of a sleeper gem.

Dungeon Plunder too.
