    Solomon's Keep just had a huge update and is only $2. It is a Diablo-like dual stick RPG that is completely randomized.

    Also, check out Card Shark Collection Deluxe for $1. It has 43 card games, customizable graphics, and has had several updates to add new games. I have put over 8 hours in just solitaire alone.

    Try the lite versions of both. In my opinion, I like Space Miner.

    I tried the lite versions of each, and I liked Warp gate a lot more. They're very different games though. Warp gate is more of a space trader with missions while Space miner is more of an asteroids game on steroids (the steroids being missions, RPG elements, and upgradeable ships). Both games are well done (though Warp Gate seems to have a few bugs still), so I think it's more of a personal preference. Since they both have lites, you can easily try each.

    I don't really get what solomon's keep is? It looks pretty cool though. Is it like a roguelike? or do you keep your abilities? I tried looking it up on the app store but it doesn't help too much lol

    It's an action RPG. Some call it a dual stick shooter, but that's not the best label because most dual stick shooters are solely about the combat. Combat is certainly a main part of this game, but so is your character development. You get a random selection of skills to choose from each time you level up, so each time you play, it's different (plus, the dungeons are randomized, so that adds to replay value). It's also got a basic storyline/quest, so it's not as shallow as most DS games. It's not as complex (or nearly as difficult) as a roguelike - it's much more casual. But I think it's also a lot more fun. Also unlike roguelikes, it's in real time. I'd definitely recommend it - I'm already on my fourth time through the game, and it's just as fun as the first time. AND, the dev is adding more content to come.

    well, there's x2 snowboarding, touch soccer, and sniper vs. sniper. Also, which X-plane should I buy?

    X-Plane? o.0
    I actually have many of them, I don't have the original x-plane 9 or helicopter. Extreme and Airliner are fun though

    You really should, as artfoundry explained, but in less words, this game is:

    DS Shooter meets RPG meets randomized skills meets Rogue-like games meets funny writing meets awesomeness.

    So yeah, this game is truly unique (I got a review up from the original version on my blog if still on the verge).
