    I´m a long time iPhone User, owning a great range of different games. Here is my list:

    1. Wolfenstein 3D - Still lovin it after all these years. Now rocking with Retina.
    2. Tilestorm - Great value, did almost beat it. I´m on my second run now.
    3. PushPixPull - Sudoku meets Sokoban. Very unique, very stylish. A truly underrated gem.
    4. Zen Bound 2 - Who doesn´t enjoy wrapping rope around wodden objects? Hey, don´t look at me, I´m lovin it. :)
    5. Puzzle Quest 2 - Oh my god, the addiction. Just one more monster to beat. :)

    In no particular order, chosen for length of time it would take to complete them:
    Plants vs Zombies - it will take ages to collect all plants for the Zen Garden.
    Tiny Tower - it will take ages to build all possible floors.
    Defender Chronicles - it will take ages to finish all levels on the hardest difficulty.
    Crosswords - this has thousands of crosswords if you download all the back catalogue for all the newspapers.
    The Creeps! - finishing all levels on all difficulties will take a long time.

    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    Here's my list, pretty much these are the most played games I have!
    1. NOVA 2---awesome fps, great campaign that I still need to finish (probly not even halfway through) and purely AMAZING multiplayer that makes it a ton of fun.
    2. League of Evil---best platformer on iOS, tons of levels, almost endless replayability, and tons of fun!
    3. Fruit Ninja---my favorite of the games that always stay on top (angry birds, tiny wings, etc) because it's actually FUN. Four modes, including multiplayer, and lots of time on my hands means this game gets a special slot on this list.
    4. Sonic Racing---hard to decide between this and Asphalt 6, but since I stopped progressing (hit a dead end early on) in the single player it goes to Sonic. Multiplayer, battle mode, grand prix, single race, missions...it's got it all. And I need a fun racing game.
    5. I'm gonna put this slot as a toss-up. I seriously would be happy with the other four, but I'd go with Temple Run, Lego HP, or Conquist 2 for the last slot...

    So for me, this is more about the games, genres that I always come back to, regardless of what the newest game that is coming out

    Crosswords - love crossword puzzles, and this gives you an endless supply (Crux is a worthy alternate)
    Jumbline 2 - best of the word unscramblers in my opinion
    PathPix series
    Solitaire game - I think Solitaire City Deluxe is the best, but Solitaire Pro has like 700 variations - hard to beat for sheer quantity
    Match 3 - hard choice here - Puzzle Quest 1 or 2, and Montezuma Revenge 1 or 2

    Got to have a dual shooter - Infinity Field for me is my favorite
    Also have to have an RPG - Final Fantasy 10 is not available on iOS, so FF3

    Sorry for exceeding the limit. :eek:

    Behind you!
    Hmm, this is a hard decision to make...

    Prince of Persia: Warrior Within - Open world-ish, acrobatics, good combat, it's a jack-of-all-trades action game.
    Amazing Breaker - Amazingly beautiful and very fun puzzle game with lots of levels.
    Phoenix HD - Endless shooter that looks and plays amazingly, and it's in my opinion the best top down shooter on the appstore...yes, even better than cave's.
    Mission Europa: CE - This is for my FPS fix, it may not look that pretty but it plays great and is loads of fun. I've already sunk a full 25hrs into it, so I think I'll get a few more in ;)
    Plants Vs. Zombies - This one will satisfy my tower defense and zombie cravings, plus it's fun as hell.

    Well, that was tough, but I think if I could only have 5 games, these would be them, for sure.

    Forget Me Not
    Bumpy Road
    Plants vs Zombies
    Super Hexagon

    I tried to avoid recent games.

    Jet Car Stunts
    Repulze
    Outwitters
    Reckless Racing 2
    Super Crate Box

    Honorable mention:
    Mines In Space
    - Anyone remember this game? Horribly outdated now... predates iPads, retina, and 4-inch displays with no updates in years. It takes traditional minesweeper mechanics and twists them in a lot of really clever ways. I keep it around because I loved it and have a lot of progress that won't be synced to anything but can't bear to open it... it just looks like fried ass on newer devices. : (

    Minecraft PE (would not get old even after 100 years)
    Jet Car Stunts
    Mutant Mudds (extremely hard platformer - it will take me forever to finish this game)
    Fruit Ninja
    Block Fortress (TD for the minecraft nerd)

    If I could bend the rules and have 6:
    Infinity Field (acid tripped on acid, incredibly beautiful dual stick shooter)

    This is actually a good idea, for me usually too much game == won't play anything. Anyway my pick is:

    1. Deathsmiles: I always can't get bored playing this. Replaying story, characters, smartphone modes.. there's always something to keep me busy.

    2. Phoenix HD: My go-to snacking game. It's always fun having 5 minutes of blowing and avoiding stuffs in this endless SHMUP.

    3. The Worlds Ends with You: Because I haven't beat this yet, keeping this as one of the five will actually makes me play it.

    4. Final Fantasy 4: Same case as TWEWY.

    5. Beat Sneak Bandit: My go-to game if I want to challenge/torture myself. Also haven't beat this yet because sometimes it's frustating as hell.
     
  19. If they were iphone 5 supported:

    - Demon Hunter: Return of the wings
    - Anthing from Kairosoft

    And:

    - Galaxy on fire 2
    - Some space theme RTS
    - Some rpg/arpg/krpg
