    Absolutely, best adventure platformer on ios since swordigo. Depending on how long it takes for you to solve puzzles, I'd say somewhere between 2-4 hours, maybe longer.

    I am looking for a game similar to jelly wars, in that it is asynch multiplayer where you take turns trying to shoot and cause damage to your opponent in a 2d map. I am guessing there might be some tank games that fit the bill.

    Worms 2: Armageddon, on sale at the moment ^.^ Universal app, too
    Edit: not sure if it has asynchronous multiplayer, sorry :(
    --

    If I were to get only one of the more expensive high quality shmups, what should I get (playing on iPhone 5)?

    Dariusburst SP, Dodonpachi Maximum, RayForce, RayStorm, Deathsmiles, or something else? (Just got DU2 and looking for a few other shmups to dig into along with it this upcoming weekend) Hard to pick just one between these :x

    Thanks!

    Maybe check out Phoenix HD, which has grabbed me most. Not sure about IAP impacts though. Any help?

    Besides Dodon Maxi I don't think any you mentioned have been upgraded for i5. Which is stupid considering the price

    Should the thread title be changed to remove 2012 and replace with 2013?

    Sonic Dash does look cool. Didn't realize it was a BTB runner.

    I got home after laying in hospital for a few days, and I can barely walk, I can't do anything for quite a few days, so I'm looking for an addictive time killer. What about Block Fortress? Or maybe Dungeon Plunder? Or maybe you guys know some other addictive time killers for my iPod 4g?

    King Cashing 2 fits the bill of time killer to a T. You can smash SPIN all day long if you want, or you can try and stop each individual reel on the good stuff if you have the timing and/or coordination.

    I think Mage Gauntlet is worth it. Block Fortress and Heroes/Castles should be worth it(I havent picked up those)....that's where Foursaken Media excelled in making TD games.

    Dungeon Plunder

    @Underwater - Dungeon Plunder is also a good time killer if you're at home for a few days after getting out of the hospital and can barely walk.
    Must haves are The World Ends With You and Mage Gauntlet.
    Here are some low file size RPGs worth checking out:
    The Quest Gold (57mb installed; massive first person dungeon crawler)
    Partial: The Broken Lineage (37.2mb installed; strategy RPG)
    AurumBlade (30.4mb; action krpg)
    Questlord (25.5mb installed; first person dungeon crawler)
    Dragon Knight 4 (65mb installed; action KRPG)
    Also search "KemCo" and take your pick of any turn based JRPG issued by them (all under 40mb)

    Did anything good actually come out yesterday? Was planning on getting five of the paid games. Ended up just downloading Jones On Fire since everything else had such mixed impressions..

    There was a surprise release of Back to the Future for iPhone/iPod (previously an iPad exclusive). Played the first episode a while ago on my Mac and loved it.
