Paco Mania

Pac-Man has proven to be one of those ageless gaming characters that manages to somehow find success with every generation.  I don't know whether it is the dodging of ghosts or the collecting of pellets, but it is something that has entranced me as well.  This is why Paco Mania jumps out at us as something that you should be checking out.  Touted as a 3D re-imaging of the popular franchise, players will make their way through a maze collecting random pieces of coinage.  Time to embrace your own personal "Gold Rush."

Sunshine Cruise Lines

Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to be the captain of your own ship?  In Sunshine Cruise Lines you get to do just that, while also getting a heavy dose of micromanagement themed gameplay as well.  You can set sail for any number of different exotic locations, all while enjoying an adventure on the high seas.

Galaga 30th Collection

When it comes to game franchises that just keep persevering, Galaga ranks right up there with Pac-Man.  After thirty years of seeing numerous different revivals in many different ways, shapes, and forms, this time the game ventures out on the iOS.  Featuring the four most well know iterations in the series, the title features the first game for free, with an option to purchase the other three games in app.  This is a must own for any arcade fanatic.

City of Wonder

Sid Meier created a gaming behemoth when he breathed life into the Civilization franchise eons ago.  Picking up where that series left off, City of Wonder is a free exploration into the world of city and culture crafting.  Players can harvest resources, drive scientific exploration and even construct entire metropolises.  If peace isn't something that sounds like fun, there is even an ability to arm the civilians and let slip the dogs of war.  It is sure to soothe anyone's inner warlord.

Frisbee® Forever

Really?!  There is such a thing as a game dedicated to a gliding hunk of processed plastic?  By the nature of the product there is no way to actually even simulate its use in any way, shape, or form, yet somehow this game exists.  Controlling a disk as it soars through a wide variety of different enviroments, there are over one hundred different stages at the player's disposal.  Needless to say, but this is the type of game that will keep you busy for quite some time.

City of Wonder:
Gamers looking to get some SimCity style gaming on without breaking the bank have a great free option. City of Wonder starts players off with a tiny village and gives them the tools to grow it into a sprawling metropolis. There are hundreds of buildings to build, destroy, or just sit back and admire. No city would be complete without resource management and factories to increase wealth. Time to put on that mayor hat and produce the best city around.

Cosmic Code:
Cosmic Code is a new spin on the classic matching style game. Start off with a game in which players will fight enemies based off local points of interest in their own town. Next, throw in hidden bosses and 100+ items to collect, and this game becomes highly addictive. After all, nobody wants aliens invading their local Starbucks!

Strike Knight:
Gamers looking to mix up their shuffleboard experience have a bit of hope thanks to Strike Knight. This game takes the familiarity of shuffleboard, throws on some bowling mechanics and ships it off to iOS devices everywhere. All the player has to do is slide a puck down the board and topple as many bowling pins as possible, without getting frustrated at the heckling knight and crowd. Who needs a smoky bar now?

Slug Bugs:
Slug Bugs is a cut little game in which players mug "slug" VW Bugs as they go whizzing across the screen. The only hitch to all this madness is cop cars will try and break up the fun. The game promises some of the best audio around with Ghost 3D providing a thrilling 360-degree audio package. No more sore shoulders from playing this game during long car trips to grannies house!

FishLord:
FishLord allows gamers to hit the lake without the arduous tasks of applying sunblock, dealing with boat launches, or falling off a rocky boat. This game comes with four islands and 17 stages to fish and explore. Explore the deep blue sea and discover all the hidden treasures buried deep in its depths. No sunburn equals a happy fisher.
