Zuma's Revenge! |
93 |
| $1.99 |
|
| Survive a newly evolved world of Zuma where evil spirits and tiki bosses rule the land. Check out a quote from AppPicker: "Not only did PopCap faithfully recreate the classic marble shooting game but also added enough nice, new touches to make it exciting for both new and old players. My advice is to pick up Zuma’s Revenge and watch the hours melt away in marble shooting bliss." (March 13, 2012)

TwinGo! |
87 |
| $0.99 |
|
| The two Weather Twins, Fuyu and Natsu have lost the stars, now it's up to you to help get them back. Check out a quote from AppAdvice: "In a word, this game is addictive. Being a Chillingo title, you would expect it to be top notch, and it certainly lives up to that reputation." (March 9, 2012)

Air Wings™ |
85 |
| Free |
|
|
Air Wings is a flying battle game where you pilot a paper airplane and shoot your network opponents using crazy weaponry such as the spit wads, rubber bands, heat seeking pencils, firecracker bombs, and suction cups. Check out a quote from AppAdvice: "This is the iOS best dog fighting game I’ve played. The thematic office supply elements and rockabilly soundtrack also add to the appeal. Ads are present as banners, and you have to pay to unlock the more advanced planes, but you really get a lot for free." (March 7, 2012)

|
Coco Loco™ |
83 |
| $0.99 |
|
| Take control of a troop of fearless marshmallow heroes as you set out to rescue your friends from the candy clutches of the nasty chocolate guardians. Check out a quote from The Smartphone App Review: "Overall, Coco Loco is a fantastic physics based puzzle game, the best to hit the iPhone in a long time. A combination of the best elements from other games, with some excellent physics and original characters and settings, this gets the most important thing right- decent puzzles, and is a breath of fresh air for the genre."
