    Cut the Rope

    by Chillingo Ltd

    This app is one of my personal favorites. Like other physics puzzle games, Cut the Rope requires you to use gravity, momentum, timing, and other fundamentals of the field to navigate a small candy hanging from a rope into the mouth of a little green monster named Om Nom. The game is simple: cut the rope causing the candy to fall into the monster’s mouth. But it’s not long before you realize it’s going to take a lot more than just cutting a rope to ensure the candy lands safely in Om Nom’s mouth. Each level presents new obstacles and tools to use in your objective of feeding this little green guy.

    Bejeweled

    by PopCap

    Given its straightforward objective and game play, the addictive nature of this game is quite astounding. Match three or more jewels of the same shape in a row vertically or horizontally and gain points. The jewels you manage to align in a row disappear and make room for new ones. To add more excitement, utilize one of the game’s other playing modes like “Lightning,” where you must eliminate jewels and accumulate points before the progress bar shrinks to nothing.

    Family Feud® & Friends

    by Ludia

    Whether you’re a fan of the long running television game show or not, this app is sure to add hours upon hours of fun to your life. This app follows the game show in having you answer questions in the “survey says” format. And with Facebook you can connect with friends and challenge them, or help friends to complete their “fast money rounds” giving you both more points. If you don’t have Facebook, it’s still fun to sit around with friends and read questions out loud for everyone to answer.

    Jetpack Joyride

    by Halfbrick Studios

    From the creators of Fruit Ninja and Monster Dash comes the extremely addictive Jetpack Joyride. Join Barry Steakfries as he maneuvers his way through a science lab full of obstacles and evil scientist. And unlike other endless runner games, in this one you have the option of flight by means of a machine gun jetpack. But what makes this game really fun is its commitment to making sure you don’t get bored with the typical endless runner objective of gaining points and avoiding death for as long as possible. Through an array of power-ups, vehicles, gadgets, and objectives, this game remains fun and fresh for a long time after that initial run.

    Fruit Ninja

    by Halfbrick Studios

    Instead of an endless runner, you have an endless bombardment of fruit. Fruit Ninja is pretty basic in objective; slice all the fruits that are tossed in the air using your fingers within the allotted time. Sounds easy enough right… wrong! With obstacles like fruit bombs that negatively impact your score and multiple fruits hitting the air simultaneously, it can be quite difficult slicing each fruit that comes your way. And with power-ups that come in the form of bananas, new backgrounds and swords waiting to be unlocked, a lot of fun can be had with this app.

    iSniper 3D

    by Triniti Interactive Limited

    This first person shooter makes use of the tilt and tap control. It’s kind of hard to use at first. The tilt controls in particular feel very sensitive and as a result make it difficult to pin point enemies. After a few rounds the controls feel much more natural and that’s when the fun really begins. What propels this game ahead of the pack is its commitment to providing great 3D imagery and an interesting story arc that will keep you playing for days on end.

    Solitaire‌‌‌‌‌

    by MobilityWare

    There are many solitaire apps on the market, and you’d probably be happy with almost any one of them. Solitaire by Mobilityware is pretty straight to the point. It’s a solitaire app for your iPhone. This app is a great substitute for when playing cards are nowhere to be found and you have a ton of time to kill. What separates solitaire on the iPhone from solitaire in the physical world is how much more addictive it is. This is largely due to how easy the iPhone makes it for you to play a game or two. A game of solitaire on the iPhone takes significantly less time than with cards on a kitchen table and utilizes virtually no space since an entire game can be played in the palm of your hand.

    THE GAME OF LIFE Classic Edition

    Here is a board game from your childhood that can now be played on your iPhone. This app is perfect for long road trips or just spending time with family and friends.

    FallDown!

    by Hannes Jensen

    The name says it all. The objective is to guide a ball through holes by tilting your iPhone from left to right as it falls down the screen without getting squashed at the top. As you progress, the game moves faster and faster, forcing you to employ laser focus and light speed reflexes as you try to get your ball to the bottom of the screen. The amount of quickness, concentration, and patience required to succeed in this game is ridiculous, and that is what makes it a lot of fun.

    Road Warrior Racing Multiplayer - by Top Free Apps and Games

    by Top Free Apps and Games

    If you’re looking for a racing game to include in your gaming library, Road Warrior Multiplayer Racing is a great choice. It’s a 2D racing game that adds cool tricks and lots of guns to the racing action. You can shoot and obliterate opponents while performing flips on the racetrack. The controls are easy to handle, allowing you to focus more on strategy during races. And connecting to Facebook allows you to compare scores and achievements with friends. The game is free to download and play, but items in the game cost money… real money. This is a disappointment. But with that small inconvenience aside, Road Warrior is a fun and exciting game that takes the traditional racing format and turns it on its head.

    Infinity Blade II

    by Chair Entertainment Group, LLC

    I haven’t sat down and devoted more than twenty minutes to a RPG (role playing game) in a long time. I actually forgot why I stopped playing them. That is, until I started playing Infinity Blade 2. The problem is I get super committed to these games. And the better the game the more of my weekend I see entering the dark abyss that is my computer screen, or in this case iPhone screen. Where do I begin? This game is unlike anything else I’ve played on my iPhone. The graphics and cinematic value are unbelievable. I didn’t even know the iPhone could handle a game with so much depth and clarity. The game has a lot of action and keeps the entertainment in full supply. This app rivals many of the RPGs that can only be played on the more powerful computing devices.

    Fieldrunners 2

    by Subatomic Studios, LLC

    Tower defense games can be a lot of fun. They can also be a little stressful. Fieldrunners 2 may be the best the tower defense genre has to offer. The objective is to erect missile defense towers in strategic locations to prevent enemies from crossing the field into your base. But you have to be smart when building towers, mostly because towers cost money that is generated by the enemy kills you accumulate in a round. So it takes time, patience, and a strategic mind to succeed in this game. Fieldrunners 2 combines a variety of levels and enemies with tons of weapons and power-ups to give you hours and hours of fun.
