    Meteor Blitz is $0.99. Get it if you don't already have.

    Plunderlands and one of these:

    Starball
    Spirit
    Solomons Keep
    Zombiesmash
    lil racerz
    Flick Kick Football

    All those are amazing. Amazing.

    Or you could get Jet Car Stunts and the DLC! 1.99 and 1.99 respectively. JCS is the best game ever made btw.

    Jet car stunts. Get itttttt. it's soooooo goooooood. Also get the DLC if you like it.
    It IS hard, but the replayability is honestly infinite. Finding shortcuts and doing stunts is awe-inspiring. I once spent two hours on getting a shortcut right. I got it and it was insane. I flew across the map twice. Using twisting roads as my ramp. Sooo worth the two hours.

    There are 36 levels when you buy it. 25 platforming, 11 time trial.
    26 come with the DLC.
    And 5 for free DLC.

    Hoppy (.99)

    And just asking again, I'm planning on getting Archetype next week anyways, but I was just wondering how it compared to NOVA online?

    Thanks everyone, for their suggestions!

    Of the above list, I already have Spirit, Solomon's Keep, Zombie Smash, and Jet Car Stunts. I tried Lil Racerz lite version, but I'm not used to the controls. (And other popular games I have include Helsing's Fire, Meteor Blitz, Grokion, and I just got Banzai Rabbit with a promo code).

    So I will get Plunderland. And for $0.99, I'm right now considering Starball and Oddy Smog's Misadventure. Wish they had lites to try. Anyone else has advice on this?

    Actually I wouldn't mind to hear about Oddy. It looks pretty cool.

    I can tell you about Starball. Its a pick up and play, collect stars, avoid red balls, cool powerups. Really addicting. Sadly it never caught on so the devs probably stopped supporting it :( But they did add a lot of stuff like themes and such.

    Pick up one or more of those games on Gameloft's sale. They'll definitely keep you occupied.

    Oddy is pretty dang fun. It's like a mix of doodle jump and that frog game with the lilypads. And it kinda has a meaning/story to it. It's way fun.

    I'm planning on getting either Hook Champ or Super Quick Hook. I want to try one first, before deciding whether I want to other or not. So which is better? If I got Super Quick Hook before Hook Champ, would I still "get" the story/appeal or not? Thanks.

    They are both seperate games. Hook Champ is much tougher, but has a more substantial story and more gameplay.

    SQH, however, has unlimited replays due to its Avalanche mode and upcoming Eruption mode. Not forgetting, of course, the number of levels in SQH (Hookchamp has more though). SQH is also easier to pick up (but difficult to master, just like HC :D)

    Both are worth a try, but I'll go for Hook Champ (I have both, of course. RocketCat is awesome)

    Thanks. But you stated that SQH has more replayability, so why would you pick Hook Champ over this? Thanks.

    I recommend Hook Champ too.

    Super Quick Hook is a bit too easy

    ------------------------------

    What should i get? I have 15 dollars left.

    Super Quickhook just feels more natural. I loved hook champ to death and played it all the time. The learning curve is a bit harder but it's awesome. When I first tried SQH everything was so smooth compared to Hook Champ. Not to say HC is bad, just comparison. Also SQH has secrets and I think the level design is cooler. :) So I would reccommend SQH first, but definitely get both over time.

    How does Archetype compare to NOVA multiplayer? I read a few reviews in the app store and a couple people prefer NOVA to Archetype.

    I would pick Archetype MP over NOVA anyday.
    I never found the NOVA MP that fun, but I play Archetype all the time.

    I definitely agree with SQH over HC for this reason. I have always been frustrated with HC's controls. It feels so clunky and awkward for a newbie like me.
