iPad2 Games

Wilkz07 · 06-03-2011, 05:17 PM

Just got my iPad2 in the mail today and have put The 7th Guest, Imaginary Range and Infinity Blade on.

Any other suggestions for iPad games?

#sworcery is the reason I got mine.

Trainyard, the Heist, Helsing's Fire HD, and Spirits are fantastic puzzle games.

Casey's Contraptions another must-own, physics puzzler.

Dead Space, NBA Jam, and Lego Harry Potter are good big-ticket games.

100 Rogues, great rogue-like.

World of Goo, even if you've got it on another platform, is perfect on the iPad.

thanks. downloading Rogues and Heist now to start

Puzzle Quest 2, Sparkle HD and Pulse, DoodleKart, Risk.

I'd pick one FPS between EliminatePro and RAGE HD.

Also, big shout-out to Across Age HD. Very much A Link to the Past type of game. Highly recommended 'core' game.

If you like RPGs Chaos Rings is a must.

Also, Appshopper. Bookmark it, download the app, make a habit of checking it everyday. It gives you a list of the apps that are on sale for the day, price history so you can see if it would be wise to wait on a sale, etc..

Infinity Blade, X-Men, Dead Space, NBA Jam, SimCity, TowerMadness, Words With Friends, Gun Bros.
That's what I've found thus far.

Edit: Keep in mind I have a iPad 1, I got the top of the line wifi version for the same price as the bottom of the line wifi current generation.

Going to bump this thread since I have mine now and I'm a little overwhelmed with the selection of games.

Also, I find I have to weed through a crapton of Farmville-esque games (though, my wife loves Tiny Tower).

I've pretty much just been downloading all my old iPhone games I bought when I still had an iPhone.

I'll look through everything suggested, I was just curious if there was any "Latest and greatest" out.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 hasn't been mentioned, it is really good and challenging.

Wilkz07 · 09-01-2011, 07:09 AM

Played TW12 when it was on sale and it was pretty good. Started playing Zombie Minesweeper and Modern Combat 2 Black Pegasus.

waiting for the fall for FF War of the Lions ipad version.

biosc1 · 09-03-2011, 05:56 PM

100 Rogues is pretty damn great. Last time I played it was on a jailbroken iPhone last year. It's great fun on the iPad and I definitely just wasted the afternoon playing it

Camel · 09-03-2011, 06:00 PM

One reason I kind of want an iPad is because there are a lot of digital versions of board games (Small World, Ghost Stories, Zooloretto, etc) available for it.

biosc1 · 09-03-2011, 06:17 PM

I grabbed Risk and Boggle today, but I still need to grab a bunch more. It's a lot easier to store 1 iPad versus all the boxes for games. Also helps for games that require a bunch of accountant-level calculations.

Dark Acre Jack · 09-04-2011, 12:28 AM

Boardgames!

Ticket to Ride is fantastic with the update, as are Puerto Rico HD and Samurai.

muddi900 · 09-04-2011, 01:19 AM

Real Racing 2 HD. Probably the only real AAA game on the ipad

Is it a "sim" racer? More Forza vs Project Gotham?

biosc1 · 09-09-2011, 02:27 PM

Grabbed Drawn HD for free (sits at $6.99) now and I am actually really enjoying it. It's a well put together puzzle/adventure game that isn't too difficult. Just easy enough to not be frustrating yet still challenging enough that it isn't a cakewalk.

Dark Acre Jack · 09-10-2011, 10:11 AM

Argh, when was that free?

Labour Day Weekend.

I filled up on a bunch of new games.

Mirror's Edge is fun, if only in short bursts.

Seems no one mentioned Avadon.

Oldest of the old-school style Spiderweb Software RPG, from the dude who made Avernum and Geneforge.

biosc1 · 09-10-2011, 10:46 PM

Avadon looks great. I'll definitely be putting it on my wish list.

I think I am still trying to overcome the idea that one can play an in-depth game on the iPad.
