    Tesla's Electric Mist came out this week, and all the fans keep comparing it to The Lost City or Secret of Grisly Manor. So, if you love those games, you'll love that one too.

    Here's a link to the post on it:

    Number 3 is a port of the DS version, and it's a wonderful game, if you can only choose one, i would go with 3. But i know for a fact that i have played FF I many many times before, but i would still pick it up and start it all over again no matter what, where as with 3, once you finished it, you won't have the same re playability.

    Completely different styles of course. I haven't played ff3, but so far BG is awesome!

    Looking for a game where you can build a castle, walls, settlements to bring income, etc... That would have enemies that try to attack you and you have to defend against.

    Something like an RTS paced like a freemium game without the freemium part. I don't really know how to explain it though, so that's not helping. Just looking for something to satisfy an itch... :(

    2 dollars

    Alright, got $2.

    Current by TinkerHouse games,

    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id435863055?mt=8

    or

    GoatUp by Llamasoft?

    In general, is GoatUp the consensus best Llamasoft game? Forget-Me-Not is tied for 1st with Mikey Shorts for my fav iPhone game ever. BUT, I do like the graphics style of Current (really liked Inferno) & could go for a puzzlier game.

    Jetpack Joyride, Temple Run, and Tilt To Live (TTL went free a few days ago; don't know if it's a sale or permanent). If light task management and very casual games are for you, Pocket Planes can suck you in. You can join the Touch Arcade 'flight crew' & get a leg up on building your airline empire.

    Asphalt 7 is free right now, and is an extreme arcade racing game with depth.

    PlicPlic is one of them, endless, unique, made with passion and love
    Outwitters too, great async multiplayer from the devs of Tilt to Live
    Into the Dead is a amazing 3D endless runner from PikPok

    2nd PlicPlic; didn't know it was free! If you don't wanna shell out the dollar for Tiny Wings, it's the next best thing.

    Into the Dead is pretty awesome. I highly recommend it. It starts off easy but becomes incredibly difficult. And the IAP structure is a joke. You'll never need to purchase anything to fully enjoy the game.

    :confused:

    Very confused by some folks' response to this game. I found it to be very short-lived and repetitive, and this is coming from someone who plugged in something like 20 hours with Zombie Highway. The game looks good, but it's pretty damned boring if you ask me. For free, though, I guess it's worth a try.

    I think folks might be deluding themselves a bit simply because it has the PikPok name attached to it.

    No, is the atmosphere, the sounds, the uniqueness of it, the way IAP is handled and much much more :)

    Gta vice city or Nfs most wanted? Bearing in mind I found the controls on gta 3 annoying and I found the original most wanted on ps2/360 really fun, is it anything like the console origional

    Based on reviews I'd say no.
    But... I've never played the game.
