    Hello everyone!

    I used to be an avid TouchArcade member around the time of the 3GS to the iPhone 5S.

    I currently own an iPhone 5, but tomorrow I'll have an iPhone X. Therefore, I can finally make a long-awaited return to gaming on iOS!

    Games I used to love:

    Fieldrunners - to me, this was an absolute classic presentation wise and gaming wise - addicting and challenging - I loved it!
    Canabalt - simple game mechanics, but again, super-challenging and fun
    Bridge Constructor - again, challenging and intuitive
    Homerun Battle - my first love - amazing baseball game that was really challenging and all about timing
    Space Miner - The pinnacle of iOS gaming in my era - incredible story, graphics, gameplay etc. this one had it all!
    GameDev Story - another classic - played through this around 3 times.
    Jetpack Joyride - another one that's similar to Canabalt - greatly executed in stunning graphics and challenge
    Backbreaker Football - great American football sim - fun game
    iBomber Defense - great game!
    Carcassonne - brilliantly adapted board game
    Implode! - amazing physics game
    Meteor Blitz - another great shooter title
    Moto X Mayhem - spent many an evening trying to beat everyone else's high scores
    Bookworm - great word-playing game
    Minigore - geat game that was popular on this board!
    Flight Control - another fun app

    More recently, I've enjoyed Crossy Road and Plague Inc.

    Does anyone have any recommendation for games that you'd think I would love? I am up for downloading quite a few tomorrow! If you think the developer will also update the app for iPhone X, then I'd be even more up for getting it. Ultimately though, I'm sure I'll have missed many classics over the last few years, and I'd love to hear from you if you have one that isn't already on my list!

    Thanks everyone - it's good to be back! Currently playing Stardew Valley on my Switch!
