Casual/not so much mix, depending on the price mostly.

My favourites are: Broken Sword, Dracula:Path Of The Dragon, Sword Of Fargoal, The Deep, Sky Burger and Frootrees
First two because I love adventure games and these are amazing, second two because of the amazing replay value and last two because they are great pick up and play titles

Though I have 7 pages of games I only play Deep Pinball and Flight Control when I have a few minutes time to spent.
I really need more free time... I guess I should talk to my boss thatI cannot play enough.....

I have 11 pages of apps (mostly thanks to TMA for recommending & gifting! :) ) but my favorites are (in no particular order)
Bejeweled
Tap Tap Revenge (1-3, especially 3)
Pee Monkey (even my cousins and uncle love it!)
Slingshot Cowboy
Scramble
Yumsters2
My younger sis loves Anna Montana, that's all she plays and my 3 BFFs actually fight over my iPod Touch to beat each other's score in Cowabunga (I think high score is at 190 at the moment)! :D

Great list, I played them all. I like Bass but it's not my favourite.

So my favorite games are:
My Brute
Uniwar (fantastic online RTS)
Green Fingers
I also enjoyed a lot the Reign of Swords series but they have low replayable value.

I have one page of apps that I leave on my device no matter what else I have to rotate for the purposes of reviewing / beta testing. Sadly, I had to remove a couple games from that page because I kept playing them too much :) Right now the ones I keep going back to on that page are Action Hero, Crazy Turkey Blast and Skee-Ball. Man do I wish I could play Skee-Ball right now...

Definitely GTA Chinatown Wars is my number one, it never ceases to impress me with how big the game is and it's available for an iDevice.
Next up would be iQuarium, Eliminate Pro, and HR Battle.

Sword and Poker
Choice of the Dragon (free! go get it!)
Yipe5 (the dialogue alone is brilliant - I believe it's on sale now! Grab it!)
Beneath a Steel Sky
Broken Sword
The Secret of Monkey Island (I have the original AND special edition on my comp, why not get it for the itouch?)
Hand of Greed (It's deadly addictive)
Minigore (Need Sensei Evan!!!!)
Compression
Space Invaders Infinity Gene (infinite soundtrack possibilities)
Orbital
NOVA multiplayer
Depict
Eliss
And, of course, Graal for...well, nothing atm.
Every single one of those games has maintained 100% of it's charm and playability. Sword and Poker is so dreadfully addictive it hurts. Doodle jump is not on the list because, while it is ok, I find compression or Eliss to both fill that exact same "3 minutes on the bus" void, and better.

well, I just bought Homerun battle 3d and it's really addicting. I'd also mention Pocket God, Flight Control, Doodle Jump

02-03-2010, 01:07 AM
it changes from time to time (like after i get bored) but here's my list atm:
doodle jump (naturally), pocket god, fieldrunners, bejeweled, all-in-one gamebox, titanic rescue, bust-a-move (since i just got it today courtesy of touchmyapps), & space deadbeef

I have about 11 pages and i don't usually play any games, however some caught my eye and i love playing them whenever i can. iPod Touch has become more of a gaming Device and for web browsing.
My Most played & Favorite apps are:
Virtual Pool Lite - Love playing Pool (wish i could get this in a Giveaway).
TapDefense - most played Tower Defense game.
Red Sky - a little boring coz all you have to do is 'Tap', however i enjoy it.
Cubes - Tetris on a Rubik's Cube :)
Just Fillin' - played those 10 level over and over again before i bought this app, fave since my teens.
iShoot - i remember playing a similar game on DOS called 'Gorilla' in my childhood.
iPlummet - Not actually a Game - i spend time watching the little guy falling thru space.
Double Ball - Fun Puzzle.
Labyrinth - i remember playing this in my childhood. The 3D version has got a lot of puzzling levels.
O.D.E - One Dot Enemies - This is my Stress relief app.

I'm getting some great ideas from this thread.
Some of mine are:
Madden 10
NFS Undercover
NFS Shift (Thanks to TMA!)
Tiger Woods Golf
Brunswick Pro Bowling
Mega Man II
Sonic the Hedgehog
Pac-Man Championship Edition
Pac-Man Remix
Galaga Remix
Just to name a few
Usually I switch em up quite a bit with small chunks of progress/play - (too many to list)
Main focus- right now I just reached California in the Oregon trail, working on"A+" in all levels of Implode, Cogs, The Creeps, Karnival, TouchPets,and My Town.
The last time I was really addicted to a game was with Orbital (pure mode)

Really? Are you a traditional adventure gamer or did you just happen to grab this one on a whim? The only reason I ask is that I'm a big adventure game fan (been playing since the days of Zork and King's Quest) and I really couldn't get into 1112.

Well, I downloaded it while it was free and I guess what makes this my favourite is the storyboard. And I really like the way everyone acts, especially Louis (no, not the administrator here on TMA). Kinda reminds me about Samorost. http://amanita-design.net/samorost-1/ What I also like is the hand-painted style. The only thing I wish for is that the enviroment should be more interactive.

Well, maybe I need to spend more time with it. I didn't get it while it was free (in fact, it's the only game I've paid more than $4.99 for), so it's especially frustrating that I didn't care for it.

Mine are currently Bejeweled 2 and Virus Laboratory. I just wish Zynga would hurry up and port FarmVille to the iPhone!!

Minigore all the way!
Trenches and GreenFingers are also part of my top favorites.
RustySabre

Well, I'm over Skee-Ball now. Turns out that I was wrong in my review of Hellkid, where I surmised that the game was fun but not "play just one more time" caliber. Now I dread loading it up because I'm afraid I won't stop playing it. How fickle we can be in our favorites...

I've played that on the PC - does it work well on your iPhone/Touch?

Yes! It's pretty good so far. I do have a bit of touching issues on it though but it's pretty minor.
I've been wanting it for awhile.

I actually just got this one through the giveaway as well :) I haven't had a chance to try it yet, though.

I also have to mention Soosiz. Easily the best platformer on the iPhone (among Rolando 2).

Lately I've been playing
- Boxed In (challenging bite-sized Sokoban puzzles)
- Lumen (lasers/mirrors/lenses puzzles)
- Boom! (minesweeper)
- Rogueship (short space economics buy/sell challenges)
- Nick Chase (hidden object adventure)
I have lots more to learn/play but need..more..time........
Yikes and I almost forgot -- Zombieville USA! This is one of the best reasons to own an iDevice, because when you have that sudden need to blow away zombies with shotguns, whatcha gonna do?

02-17-2010, 11:44 AM
Add GTA to my list.

02-18-2010, 06:11 PM

Lexic is also a fantastic addition to my library that I was only recently able to try. It will suck you in like a streetwalker in Atlanta...
And at $4.99, it costs around the same price for far more pleasure and no burning sensation when you pee.
Strongly Recommended.
