Sure. Maybe change my thread title to "List of Games That Can Be Tried Free on Your PC" when you get a free moment. Basically, I see this as kind of a rainy day list of games to mess around with, maybe one will grab you. You can take this thread and just click them one after the other. Downloads arent like that, a little more effort is involved. Accordingly, while its fine to list any and all flash games with iphone equivalents, lets do each other a favor, and, at least for downloads, not list anything that we dont feel is worthy.
Interesting article on porting flash games to the iphone...I'll look and see if the titles mentioned are on the app store yet: Flash Games Coming To iPhone...Sorta Posted 7/1/09 6:30 pm ET by Russ Frushtick in Interviews, PC, iPhone Apple's resistance to supporting Flash on the iPhone and iPod Touch is a bummer to many, but Addicting Games, one of the most trafficked Flash games sites, has apparently found a work-around. In the coming weeks, they're going to be porting some of their more successful games to be playable on the iPhone. Kate Connally, Vice President of Addicting Games, spoke to me over the phone today to talk about the initiative. "We don't really have a secret sauce for moving Flash games into Objective-C [the iPhone's programming language.] Our approach has been to pick development teams and give them clear direction on the game." But they're not planning on just providing straight ports of the games. Said Connally, "We want to make sure the versions of these games that we create for the iPhone are taking advantage of the unique features that the iPhone offers for gameplay. How can this game take advantage of the accelerometer? How can it take advantage of Bluetooth features?" When it comes down to picking which games will get an iPhone treatment, decisions are made in-house. At that point, Addicting Games will reach out to the original developer to give them the opportunity to handle the port over to the iPhone. If they're not tooled up for iPhone development, an external developer will be tapped. Games will be sold separately over the AppStore. Connally wouldn't commit to prices, but was partial to the lower-priced games. "We know the .99 cent price point works really well for the short types of games that Addicting Games is built on." The first titles getting the iPhone treatment will be "Park It," "50 States," and "World War," and should launch in the coming weeks. While it's not quite the same as having a library of Flash games on the go, it's certainly a start. (*I found World War, but "50 States" is not on Itunes yet. I see "Park It" on Iphone, but there is nothing on Addicting Games with that exact name and several parking games.)
Ported one of mine I ported one of my iphone lite version games to facebook. http://apps.facebook.com/teeterblox/
Thanks all. Updated. I find more of these every time I search on google...convinced there must be a huge number. Keep em coming!
Does my (upcoming) game count if it's one level that can only be played with a Mac after installing a plug-in?
You forgot the upcoming "Battle for Westnoth", which will be something you pay for on the app store. That definitely beats a lite version, considering it's a full game with years of balancing and testing, lots and lots of fan made content (which will all likely be there on the day of release on the app store-- Wesband is my personal favorite), and continued support. The real thing you're paying for with the app store release is the ability to play it on the go. I'll personally be purchasing it for that very reason. Here's the link to the home computer versions (Open Source) http://wesnoth.org/
Links are out of date...not sure its still available. On another note, added Age of War...not sure how we forgot that one, since its now in the top 100.
Add Primrose (http://primrose.sourceforge.net/download.php) & Frenzic (http://frenzic.com/) to the list. There is a flash version of Frenzic somewhere. Google it.
i downloaded it couple weeks ago.... this is where i downloaded it: http://gamejolt.com/freeware/games/enviro-bear-2000/files/enviro-bear-2000/download/211/233/

Action Blox on the iPhone can be played online here: http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/games/bloxorz/958640/ I haven't got the iPhone version, but the general consensus seems to be that it's totally crap but if you like the general gameplay, then either Nintaii (lite version) or CubicMan Deluxe (lite version), which are very very similar games, will be much better purchases, in terms of both gameplay and value for money.
Gameblend Games This is a great thread! I'm going to toss our games in the mix as well: WordJong http://www.wordjong.com/ Hidato http://www.hidato.com/ Poker Superstars III http://www.funkitron.com/games/pokersuperstars3/online
Added a link to try Bumper Stars, which I saw either in the Top 100 list or on one of Apple's whats new/hot lists and is getting good reviews. Personally, I found the flash game a bit meh, but I probably didnt give it enough of a chance and it is sort of interesting. I'll get to the big mess of uncategorized games up there, need to motivate
