Space Breakers: Fight Interstellar UFO Starship Invaders! by MakeGamesWithUs.com ($0.99, 17.7 MB): Enjoy a nostalgic, challenging, and addictive brick-breaking experience in this clever combination of Space Invaders and Breakout. Rather than bust of stationary blocks, your mission is to destroy incoming UFOs by deflecting some of their own arsenal back at them, specifically, the green balls. Unfortunately, the rest of the alien's weaponry will cause damage to your defensive device, therefore, such objects must be avoided while making your offensive maneuvers. In addition, special weapons will glide into range, such as a laser cannon power-up, providing a much more potent wallop. The game features retro arcade-style graphics and sounds, tilt control, global leaderboard, as well as 24 level campaign with boss battles and endless play modes.

Electro Ponk by Flavien Clermont ($0.99, 32.7 MB): Pong returns in an electrifying cloud of streaming color and even more intense action. Not only can you face a truly formidable artificial intelligence opponent, starting off as a Noob and progressing all the way to a God, there's also the chance to challenge a friend in a tabletop-style battle as well as make bets on AI-only matches. The game features pixelated 2-D graphics, retro arcade sound effects, electronic soundtrack, six AI skill levels, single finger control, color and ball speed settings, auto-pause for multiplayer, and Game Center achievements.
