Overview:

There is no denying the fact that Apple has, over the years, warmly welcomed tens of millions of iOS games developed for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. Although we did talk about how the Apple iPad ‘revolutionized’ the tablet market and presented before you a list of quality gaming applications for your eyes in the not-so-recent past, we now decided to prepare a list of five best iOS games that really managed to prove their worth to date and still manage to draw gamers back to the action (which isn’t quite a battlefield; only just an IPS touchscreen but oh well). Yes, it is certainly not tough to find games on the App store (duh!) but amidst all the competition that goes it is surely a pain in the backside (of the head I mean) to enlist the best in the business. So then, let us do the favour and you sit back and admire as we present before you the top five iOS games for Apple iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch.

Here we go..

1. Cut The Rope: Experiments

For a game that that is becoming the fastest iOS game to manage a milestone with one million sales, surely there is no mention necessary (although we did mark it for your sheer convenience). Yes, you got that right-Cut The Rope: Experiments is the name of the deal. Already having set a number of records in the App store, Cut The Rope has made its mark as a potential breakout hit in no time, for sure. Speaking a little about the visuals and layout/model, ‘Cut The Rope’ seems to have quite alot in common with the previous best ‘Angry Birds’ in this regard; however, it seems that the former might just have managed to edge past the latter by a whisker (although it is seriously arguable). While the adorable mini-monster and nice,fluid visuals keep casual gamers interested for a good amount of time, loud and crisp sound and pick-up-and-play control schemes simply take the game to a higher level. Apparantly, your job in the game would merely be to escort a piece of candy from a flimsy dangling rope into the mouth of  an Omnom (sounds like nom nom, I know). Evenly paced, this physics-based puzzler will keep you glued to your devices and will definitely make your moneys worth.

2. Real Racing 2

For all those of you who highly rate car racing simulations and even a handful of those who dare to belittle the iOS for making a mess of handheld gaming, Real Racing 2 is here and it is here to stay (as long as it doesn’t crash). Sequel to the original Real Racing for the iPhone, Real Racing 2 brings with it some stunning visuals, some licensed vehicles and an overall life-like racing experience in High Definition which is absolutely great watch. The game features a promising career mode along with a terrific online multiplayer mode that easily adds ten more hours of gameplay than usual. The tilt-and-touch driving mechanics coupled with adjustable thresholds and automatic breaking really adds to the breath-taking atmosphere as you pimp your ride on the racing tracks. A must buy really for all racing fanatics out there.

3. Infinity Blade

Epic Games and Chair Entertainment managed a feat that took the shape of a stunning, addictive and surprisingly deep epic fantasy hack n slash game among the best of the lot. This baby was named, the Infinity Blade by developers (what guardians, eh?). Undoubtedly, the game has been one of the most discussed gaming titles on the iOS and manages to immensely satisfy with its stunning visuals (courtesy of state-of-the-art Unreal Engine 3 development technology) cum unique, cyclical storyline as well as the masterful control scheme. Upon donning the suit of the warrior, feel free to take the stage and parry, block, dodge enemy attacks and swing your mighty sword to take down anyone who hinders your path. With a fancy story set in place, Infinity blade will offer some good replay value and keep you interested for long.

4. Fruit Ninja

So, you love Street Fighter, eh? No, unfortunately Fruit Ninja won’t be catering for your Street Fighting needs; instead, what Fruit Ninja would be allowing you is to slice and slash through sweet, juicy fruit with no mercy whatsoever. Plus, you need to watch out for those bombs that keep coming up at random to mess your brains. Slice through the bomb and you shall have a piece of your own medicine (GAME OVER!). Yes, that is the main idea behind Fruit Ninja. Although the whole scheme sounds relatively simple compared to some other hardcore comes on the App scene so far, Fruit Ninja pleasantly surprises with its addictive gameplay and the sort of punch it delivers courtesy the game design and easy-to-use controls (a swipe on the screen-yes, that’s all it takes!). Being refreshing title for most casual gamers out there, Fruit Ninja is easily a must-buy for all and sundry.

5. Asphalt 6: Adrenaline

It takes some longevity to make it to a collection of merely five titles categorized under THE finest, part of which is a racing game already (Up at the top, there!). There is no reason why Asphalt 6 should not have made five of the finest on iOS. Although far from realism, or more conventionally known as simulation, Asphalt 6: Adrenaline combines elements of next-gen games like Ridge Racer and Split Second to produce an overall peach of a racing game. Cash bonuses and alternative routes hang in as some great incentives in the arcade title. There might not have been too much focus on the physics of the game; yet, the need for speed seems to be the main element in question as gamers blast their way at hyper speeds while causing a few collisions here and there. With an appeal of its own, Asphalt 6 complements our list of the top five iOS games that are, without a hint of doubt, worth your hard-earned cash (Well, even black money would do).
