    Forgive me if we already have a thread on this, but I couldn't find anything with the app forum search function.

    My work partner just got an iPad and I'd love to check out some multiplayer Bluetooth (or wifi?) games with him.

    I'm pretty sure I've stumbled upon several in my years of collecting iOS games, but can't recall any right now. I'd love to maintain a list here if anyone can contribute some titles.

    (Edit to add below list as you all contribute, thanks!)

    Thanks all. Lots of updates in progress. Will try to keep this list complete, perhaps putting it all into a nice chart or links.

    Thanks, more updates made and more to come.
     
  10. :cool: Great list - always looking for "family friendly" ones of those to play with the kids

    Any chance you could split them roughly by category?

    Thanks.

    I'm thinking of putting them in a table with rating, price, genre, and type of multiplayer.

    That will likely be next weekend.

    More updates made. Also, I am now trying to specify if the multiplayer is onscreen only (sharing the same iDevice). If nothing is listed, then it is local wifi or bluetooth needing two iDevices. That part is incomplete, please give me corrections.

    I'm not sure what the local multiplayer options for Lead Wars (Link) are, but it's been my favourite iOS multiplayer game for a long time now.

    For two players on the same screen I like "castle raid". I don't know how deep it is, but if you need a game that is quick pick up and play then give it a try.

    Nice list, looking forward to get it sorted to see the Bluetooth multiplayer list.. I'm pretty lazy to figure it out myself :s

    But I'll try to search for games :))

    So I've sort of dropped the ball on this for a few weeks, but I do plan to keep it updated as I go through my piles of games and test them, and as you all give me updates.

    Small update just made, more to follow.

    Thanks! Updates made.

    I think I screwed up on my thread title, which a kind mod already changed once at my request. My wording is a bit unclear, as this list is obviously for local multiplayer games, not all Gamecenter multiplayer games. What would be a good title?

    Games with local multiplayer (bluetooth, local wifi, or on-screen)

    Should I add an 'all' or 'list' or anything in there?

    Or should we have two lists or threads? One for games with on-screen multiplayer for those who only have one device to play with; and one list for games with bluetooth or local wi-fi for those of us with multiple devices?
