Games in the Apple App Store are the biggest selling items since Apple launched the iPhone applications. These games can cost from as little as 99 cents to over 30 dollars. There are a plethora of free games as well, as many paid apps have smaller free versions. In order to download and play these games you need an iPhone or iPod touch and the iPhone 2.0 software. You can either download it to your computer and sync it to the iPhone, or you can download it directly from your iPhone of iPod touch.

Cube Runner was created by Andy Qua. It’s similar to the 1980′s game of the Star Wars arcade game. The mission is to dodge the cubes as long as you can. There are no missiles to shoot, no shooting at all for that matter, and nothing that has fire associated with it. It really is a game of escapism. There are different levels of difficulty and you can even download packages with extra difficulties. This helps to keep the game from becoming stale as it gives you more variation to the same game. Another cool thing is that you can change your view from portrait to landscape.

Tap Tap Revenge is a lot like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. You tap lights that coincide with little balls as it plays to a song. There are different levels of difficulty and it is a two player game. Just like Guitar Hero, this game is addictive, especially since it is on your phone and you can take it with you wherever you go. The maker of this app has said that they will be releasing more soundtracks for the game.

Bugdom 2 is a game that has awesome 3D graphics that capture your interest immediately. You play a grasshopper named Skip Mcfly who goes around exploring houses and looking around yards while at the same time he meets friends and enemies.

Enigmo has 50 levels of play that continue to get more difficult. The purpose of this app is to get the flow of water or fire to their correct canisters to hold them. At first it seems impossible, as this is a puzzle/maze type game, but as you play the answer becomes clear. You also get tools to help as you move through the game.

Uno is a well known board game that families throughout the country play on family night. Well, now it is also a game on the iPhone that you can play. It is rather simple, as most know, but if you have not played the game all you do is match up like colors and/or numbers. If you cannot match your card up to the one previously played then you draw a card. If that card is something you cannot use, then you must continue to draw cards until a sufficient card is picked up. The first one to get rid of all their cards wins.

Another well known game is Boggle. It is a game where you have tiles of letters that get scrambled up and you simply touch the letters, they have to be touching each other in any direction, to make words. Make as many words as you can in the time allotted. You also have the option of making the grid bigger and changing the look of the tiles.

There are so many iPhone games you can choose from in the Apple App Store. Currently there are over 19,000 different apps to choose from. Some you may like and others you may not, but with that great of a selection you’re bound to find something that suits you.
