Paper Monsters by Crescent Moon Games

(5/5) Paper Monsters for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is the absolute best platforming game for any mobile device. The game has a large amount of gameplay, with 20 levels, each about 10 minutes long (longer if you want to get all of the collectibles), and the developers are already hard at work on new levels. The characters and enemies are all very adorable, and all appear to be made from paper or cardboard (papercraft). The environments and backgrounds are very detailed, with a 2.5-D style. The main character is almost fully customizable, with unlockable hats and bodies. The music is very cheerful, and adds to the already amazing game. Paper Monsters is a must-have for only $0.99 on the App Store. http://itunes.apple.com/app/paper-monsters/id439927846?mt=8

Sploosh by Spooky Moon Studio

(4.8/5) Sploosh for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is an amazing water physics game on the App Store. You control the gravity of the world by tilting the device in any direction. Doing so will make water flow left, right, up, or down. The game has great colorful graphics, and the physics work very well. The music is very cheerful, and makes the game feel happier. The end goal of the game is to water seeds and a withering tree, thus completing the level. Sploosh is, in my opinion, the best water physics game for an Apple device, and is a great deal for only $0.99. http://itunes.apple.com/app/sploosh/id486518261?mt=8

ParkBuddy by Damiaan Twelker

(4.7/5) ParkBuddy for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is a useful app with a beautiful UI. The user interface is slick, smooth, and simple. The black, white, and blue color scheme looks amazing on retina-display devices, and is the best part of the app. The main function of the app though is to help you remember where you parked your car or bike. The app tells you your exact location, and you can press the large "PARK" button to record your location. Later, when you are trying to get back to your car or bike, you can look at the location of your vehicle, and get directions to it's location. ParkBuddy is a great looking app, and a useful one too. ParkBuddy is available for $0.99 on the app store. http://itunes.apple.com/app/parkbuddy/id486209691?mt=8

Ash II: Shadows (Gold Edition) by Konami Digital Entertainment

(4.9/5) Ash II: Shadows for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is a very nice action RPG. The gold edition comes with all six chapters unlocked, and you don't have to pay extra for them. There is also a silver edition available, in which you receive chapter 2 for free and half off all other chapters. The game is a very nice-looking and action-filled RPG, with an engaging storyline. The game is very similar to games such as The Legend of Zelda, Dragon Warrior, and Final Fantasy. The graphics are smooth, and the controls are very intuitive, as the character is controlled by moving your finger to an area on the screen. There is also a virtual d-pad available for those who don't like the other control options. Occasionally, the game will crash, which is my only complaint. Luckily, the game auto-saves every so often, so usually you will have nothing to worry about. Overall, Ash II: Shadows is one of the best RPGs on Apple devices, and, for the amount of content included, is well worth the $4.99. http://itunes.apple.com/app/ash-ii-shadows-gold-edition/id486422983?mt=8

Stop Those Fish by Eye Interactive Inc.

(4.4/5) Stop Those Fish for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is a very fun game involving Bears fighting fish. You must stop an army of fish that are trying to defeat the land mammals. You control 3 separate bears as they launch dynamite at fish by dragging from the boats to where you want the dynamite to explode, in order to stop them from destroying the bears' boats. The boats, weapons, etc. are all upgradeable, using in-game currency. The game music is great to listen to, and the graphics fit the setting of the game. Overall, the game is worth the $1.99 price. Stop Those Fish is definitely a great game you won't want to miss. http://itunes.apple.com/app/stop-those-fish/id479481004?mt=8

Survival Cell by Holderness Media

(3.2/5) Survival Cell for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad is a mediocre game. The game is pretty much just tapping where to move a cell, which is no more than just a circle. You must make the "cell" attack enemy diseases, while not being attacked by them yourself. The graphics look like they were made in MS Paint, which is definitely not a good thing. The music is a bunch of static-sounding sounds, with string instruments playing in the background. Survival Cell is an okay game for the $0.99, but definitely not the best out there. http://itunes.apple.com/app/survival-cell/id459979400?mt=8
