There’s a bucket full of games that had their prices slashed this weekend for various reasons. As always, standard App Store disclaimer is in effect in that these prices were all current at the time of this posting. Since sales are often very limited, if you’ve been waiting for any of these games to see a price drop, you may not want to wait very long before picking them up.
Assassin’s Creed II Discovery, $9.99 → $6.99 – A fast paced side scrolling platformer that is highly reminiscent of Prince of Persia. We thought it was cool in our review, although to really enjoy it you need to play the game on third generation hardware, as the framerate on previous-generation devices left much to be desired.
Ravensword: The Fallen King, $6.99 → $4.99 – This impressive open-world RPG was developed by a two man team and features hours of gameplay. We liked the game in our review, and since then the game has been updated to include even more content.
Chop Chopa Ninja, $1.99 → 99¢ – Play as a ninja in this side scrolling beat-em up to rescue a princess. Instead of using on-screen controls, a series of gestures that are taught in the tutorial control the movements of your ninja. For more information check out our post on the game.
Chronicles of Inotia: Legend of Feanor, $2.99 → 99¢ – The first Chronicles of Inotia holds the claim to fame of being the first touch action RPG available on the platform. Released all the way back in 2008, Inotia has since seen a sequel that we enjoyed.
Crayon Physics Deluxe, $4.99 → 99¢ – A really fun physics game released in early 2009 that asks players to solve various puzzles by drawing crayon lines with their finger to create objects in game. You need to pick this up if you like physics games.
Heavy Mach 2, $2.99 → 99¢ – A top down mech game we enjoyed in our review. The sequel is an odd departure from the original which was a side scroller, and both games are worth checking out if you’re in to vehicular combat.
iZombieland, $2.99 → 99¢ – One of the few movie tie-in games on the App Store that’s actually worth playing. iZombieland loosely follows the movie Zombieland with a side-scrolling Splatterhouse-style beat em up. For more information, check out our review.
Theseus, $3.99 → 99¢ – A puzzle game that places players in a maze where they must escape a minotaur. The catch? The minotaur happens to move twice as fast as you do, but has predictable movements and mastering the game involves learning how the minotaur handles your actions. This was a forum favorite when it was released, and we liked it when we took a look at it.
Underworlds, $2.99 → 99¢ – Still one of my favorite hack and slash RPG’s, Underworlds has had tons of content added to it since our initial review of the game. On sale for the Super Bowl, or, apparently, for a week following the Super Bowl if the Colts win.
Car Mania, 99¢ → Free – A traffic management game we had some minor issues with in our review, but you can’t really go wrong with a free game– Especially when it comes packed with full OpenFeint integration to pad your OpenFeint score.
