Iphone Skill Games
Tap Tap Revenge
Price: Free
Deveopler: Tapulous
Details: Tap Tap Revenge, originally created by the incredible Nate True, is super-awesome mega-fun for the whole family, and we know you?re gonna love it. We can?t divulge too many details, but suffice to say it involves tapping, tapping, and revenge!
Spore Origins
Price: $7.99
Developer: Electronic Arts
Details: Control your spore through tilt controls.
Impressions: Hands On: Spore On iPhone Is Pretty Much FlOw
Bubble Bash
Price: $7.99
Developer: Gameloft
Details: Toss multi-colored bubbles into the sky to pop three or more of the same color.
Impressions: This Hawaiian-themed Puzzle Bobble (aka Bust A Move) clone is one of the slickest iPhone games we've played. Aiming is simple and reliable courtesy of a touchscreen slider and an optional accelerometer control scheme. Fantastic presentation with plenty of variety and unlockables makes this one of the must-buys (if you must buy an iPhone Puzzle Bobble clone).
Enigmo
Price: $9.99
Developer: Pangea
Details: Physics based game that has you trying to move water droplets into a container.
Impressions: Enigmo is a fairly simple physics-based puzzler that has you moving objects around to try and divert falling drops of water into a container. The touch screen is used to place, move and rotate the objects. The game's basic graphics and fairly straight forward premise really didn't grab me.
Motion X Poker
Price: $4.99
Developer: Fullpower Technologies
Details: Casino game where players shake the iPhone to roll dice.
Impressions: Motion X Poker is really just a poker dice game, but man, is it impressive. The ability to shake well-rendered 3D dice by shaking your phone, coupled with the rumble feature, is amazing. You can also choose to just roll a set of five dice. The game comes with 38 total different dice sets, though only eight are available at the start. The ability to roll dice and play whatever game you'd like is cool, though I wish they made it possible for you to select how many dice are on the screen. Also, wouldn't it be great if they added different types of dice, like a 20-sider, to it down the line?
Texas Hold 'Em
Price: $5
Developer: Apple
Details: Offline and online Texas Hold 'Em.
Impressions: This version of Texas Hold 'Em is packed with options and a delight to both play and look at. If you hold your iPhone sideways you can play the game from a top down perspective, but twist the phone upright and you get a full motion video showing the current player considering their hand or the dealer if it's your turn. Not only can you play through the game's multiple rooms, and choose from four pages of personal avatars, but you can also play against up to seven players via WiFi. If you're into poker this is a must buy.
Zen Pinball: Rollercoaster
Price: $4.99
Developer: ZEN Studios
Details: 3D touch-based pinball simulator.
Impressions: This single-table pinball sim is amazing. The amount of sound, action and graphics they managed to pack into Zen Pinball simply blows me away. This game stands right up there with some of my favorite console versions of pinball. Flippers are controlled by tapping either side of the screen and you can even move around the camera angle and then lock it back in place while paused. The only thing the game seems to be missing is the ability to bump the table, which is slightly annoying.
