    No. I've only played SoR and Final Fight, but the quality of most of the Sega iOS ports (excluding Sonic CD, that one is incredible) is below par.

    Elder Sign: Omens

    Is there ANYTHING else of quality like Elder Signs: Omens out there?

    All recommendations welcome, hopefully something from the strategy/board game genre, but anything similar in theme interests me as well.

    Games like The Room, Lume, Tiny Bang Story or Machinarium??

    I am typically drawn to the "pick up and play" style game, but lately my wife and I have become addicted to the more detailed puzzle type games. Our most recent obsessions have been:

    The Room
    Lume
    Tiny Bang Story
    Machinarium

    Are there any other quality games that are similar to the above?

    Thanks in advance.

    Definitely Ravensword 2,and SimCity-it has a poor rating but it's fun,and to place the electrical lines turn off automation for them-it won't work if that happens. And the sims ambitions has te most stuff besides the sims freeplay,but you need Internet for freeplay. A good FPS is Modern Combat 4,or NOVA 3. GTA Vice City is fantastic but laggy on a fourth gen iPod to my knowledge,and GTA 3 is fine,but it isn't full screen on iPod/iPhone 5-and it won't have any effects on those devices for some reason. Order and Chaos online is a fun MMO with a lot of players across multiple servers and there is no monthly fee anymore-there used to be but they got rid of it :) that's all I can think of right now

    What type of RPGs do you prefer? QuestLord just won TA's Game of the Week, Dungelot is a recent roguelike-ish game, Fall of Angels is a great indie jrpg...

    I'm goin to be out of town for an extended period of time. I'm looking for a fun, lengthy, story driven RPG. Turn based or action is fine as long as its fun.

    Well Rayman 2 does exist on iOS, it's just a horrible port.

    Really the only good 3D platformer that I know about is Crazy Hedgy, most everyone round these parts is a pretty big fan of that one. And most everyone hates the Rayman 2 port.
