It’s that time of week again, and a bunch of new iOS games have made their way to the US App Store after worming their way through the various time zones across the globe. Tonight I’m especially excited for Reckless Racing 3, the latest entry in a series that I’ve loved on iOS over the years. There’s also Terra Battle and Castaway Paradise scheduled to go live soon, but they just haven’t shown up in time for this post, so we’ll let you know when we spot them.
Update: Well, Skater’s woes continue and apparently it’s not available in the US App Store as of right now. Not sure what’s going on with it, but I’ve removed it from the list below and we’ll monitor the situation and update you if we hear what the deal is with it.
Update 2: Slightly late arrivals Castaway Paradise and Terra Battle have shown up in the US App Store and we’ve added them to the list below.
Update 3: Skater has finally shown up and has been re-added to the list below. Huzzah!
