    My vote for general goodness would be New Star Soccer and Super Stickman Golf 2. Platformers League of Evil and Swordigo. Twin stick shooters: Solomon's Keep. RTS: Autumn Dynasty. Tower Defense: Kingdom Rush.

    I don't know about best paid, but i do know the best free game. I know fans of the movie will agree with me. Army of Darkness: Defence, is the best free game in my opinion, I'm sure you would agree too. (just lacks iPhone 5 widescreen support)

    Then you are not a true fan, and it really does mean the runner games have taken full effect of your emotions :) I hope you find a cure for your addiction fast, happy days!

    That's just your opinion as an over-exaggerating fanboy.

    I can name hundreds of free games better than that, but you arent worth it.

    Anyways the thread is obviously asking for paid games.
     
  6. Wowzers, what a thread this is becoming.

    I like cave games the best generally cause I like hardcore shmups. Racing games are good too like Asphalt 8.

    Really well done action 2D platformer ideal for the short gaming session.

    Indeed, very underrated game. Easily one of the best games I've played on iOS.

    I find that deeply offensive.

    Offensive towards whom? I think the thread (or at least most of the posts) is a slap to the face of indie devs who struggle to bring quality to the iOS. We have games like Ravensword, Aralon, Infinity project 2 etc. and a guy comes and says "Tiny Wings". Makes me feel bad to be a mobile gamer...

    Offensive towards whom? People who have lost someone to cancer I'm sure don't find it funny. My best friends wife is fighting cancer at the moment so that 'joke' picture I find in very bad taste.

    It's a meme... It's not supposed to be taken literally.

    Wow. No runners! Well, guess he wasn't asking for those.

    But anyway, I agree with those above and in the case of Inferno+, I'd just go ahead and say anything by Radiangames.

    In addition, I'd add these:
    Any Cave game (as Connector already mentioned)
    Arc Squadron
    Polara
    The World Ends With You
    Rayman Jungle Run
    Ms. Splosion Man
    Liberation Maiden
    Dariusburst SP
    Just about any OrangePixel game
    The League of Evil games
    Penumbear
    Chaos Rings 1, 2 and Omega
    Infinity Blade 1/2
    Danmaku Unlimited 2
    Asphalt 7
    Blood Roofs

    ....well, I don't know where to stop. As one who prefers paid vs freemium games, I know there's a ton of games I'm leaving out.

    Great shout ! Totally forgot about that game, to me that was the best 'Rogue Squadron' game on the app store, now you've reminded me i need to go back and play it much much more.

    agreed, some things you simply don't joke about.

    also theres a lot of very immature people on these forums, original image poster is one.

    Yeah, having lost my mother to cancer and my brother to a form of cancer (Leukemia), it is in poor taste.

    Tiny Wings is made by an indie dev, and much better suited to a touch platform than any of the other games you listed. It's an iOS classic that, while assisted the kickstarting of the onslaught of generic runners, remains a refreshing title that got everything right. You can't diss Tiny Wings.

    That aside, I sunk many more hours into Super Hexagon than I expected when I bought it. Same with Night Sky.

    I think Superbrothers: Sword&Sworcery is the best paid iOS game though. It really set a new standard for games as art.

    BADLAND is a close second, a perfect mix of flawless touch controls with thoughtful design and replayability, thanks to the awesome local multiplayer design.
