    It's a platformer but not a traditional platformer. You can use a d-pad to move left/right, but you need to perform touch gestures as you control the wind. I'd suggest you to watch a gameplay video if you want to know more.
    Great game anyway, grab it while it's on sale. :p

    Best part is that iNethack and Slash'EM are both free, and both come with complete hearse compatibility, etc. make sure you check their entries in Settings.app

    Does anybody remember a game that was released sometime last year, I remember seeing the screenshots and the screen was like all black with two buttons, one on each side and you play by listening to the sound? I really want to get it but I don't remember what it's called, please help!

    I'm getting a $15 iTunes gift card today and I'm wondering I'm a huge Zombie lover should I get Dead Trigger the low size and graphics are pulling me in but what about the iAP?

    Also should I get the new Spiderman game from gameloft along with Asphalt 7, I need a new racing game and I've heard great things about the new Spiderman game.

    Asphalt 7 is pure arcade fun. I play a few races at a time and it feels quite fun. Had to try multiplayer for one of the goals last night and it's not as bad as I thought..didn't get beaten too badly. ;)

    Yes, absolutely. I'm always concerned about the inclusion of IAP, and to be honest, Dead Trigger can be pretty tough without buying better guns. However, the grind to use cash for a better gun isn't too bad. If you want to buy IAP for better guns, the price is still very reasonable considering what you're getting out of the game as a whole, and lastly, you can earn IAP gold by trying other apps and watching videos and such. So, there are some great options for acquiring better weapons, and damn, if the game isn't fun as hell. If you like zombie shooters, then you need this game. The file size puts devs like Gameloft to complete and utter shame.

    I'm looking for a game suggestion.

    I'm after a space strategy game with exploration.

    Ideally I'd love something like EA's old EOS game (earth orbit stations) but I don't think anything like that exists, or something like the old Amiga game K240 would be great also.

    I'd prefer a full priced game with no IAP's.

    I have Starbase Orion its ok but not really what I'm looking for.
    Also galaxy on fire is ok but too action oriented for me.

    Please help.

    Have you checked out Empire of the Eclipse? It is a bit too tedious for me personally but it might be what you have in mind.

    Yeah I looked at it, thanks. But it's too much like Starbase Orion which I already have.
