Make sure you have enough free time when you’re playing these or you’ll soon be realizing that you’re dropping balls on real life tasks.
Fieldrunners
One game genre that has increased in popularity over the years and has grabbed the hearts of many players is the tower defence type. If you’re not familiar with tower defence games, the concept is very simple.
You simply destroy your enemies by building defence towers at different parts of your kingdom. The more towers you build at strategic locations, the higher your chances are of winning.
There are 4 different types of towers you can build in Fieldrunners. Each of the towers has their own special way of defeating the enemy and they come at different costs. You’ll need to decide on what type of tower you want to build. You can build as many as your budget will let you.
Hotel Dash
Have you ever wondered how it would feel like to build and own a chain of hotels? The hotel industry is glamorous, but behind all of that glamour is pure hard work and a strategic mind.
You will soon find out what it takes to build your own chain of hotels with Hotel Dash Deluxe.
You’ll need to renovate and operate a chain of hotels in order to get guests flooding them. What makes the game so challenging is the renovation part where you’ll need to dash through all the floors renovating VIP rooms so that they will be available for your guests.
It’s not quite as easy as you may think and pretty soon you’ll find yourself addicted.
Plants vs. Zombies
Do you know that planting seeds is the best way to fight zombies? Well, this is the best way in Plants vs. Zombies.
A stream of zombies is set to attack your house and the only way you can fight them off before they start eating your brains is to plant seeds in your yard. These aren’t ordinary seeds as they have the ability to shoot at the zombies or explode and killing a whole group of zombies.
The game is a bit more difficult than it seems to be as you need cash in order to plant the seeds. You start off by planting sunflower seeds that will give you the money to plant other plants that will fight the storm of zombies approaching.
Real Racing
If you want to get the best racing experience on the iPhone then you really need to try Real Racing. Racing cars is a dangerous sport but Real Racing can give you the experience without risking a finger. It can even teach you some of the important skills of racing, like braking to a certain speeds to navigate turns.
The game has a built in autobraking system that works so you can see that exact speeds you’ll need to be when entering a turn. As you get better, you can adjust the settings so that you can apply the brakes of the vehicle to the exact speeds without the game helping you.
With Real Racing you have a wide variety of vehicles to unlock and collect. Collect these vehicles and improve your racing abilities while having a fantastic time.
Words with Friends
If you’re looking to engage in a long term game with your friends, then Words with Friends is a great way to keep in touch and at the same time sharpen your word forming skills.
The game is similar to scrabble and it uses the iPhone’s connectivity features so you can set up a game with several of your friends. You just need to remember that it may take days before one of your friends makes a move, so it would be best to remain patient and focus on your own game.
The best way to play the game is to make a move and then study the next tiles to play. Once you’re done, you can do other things and even forget about the game. Don’t because the game will notify you once another player has made their move or if it’s your turn to make a move again.
Each of these games is very addictive and they made it to the top of our list. There are other games out there that may have gotten you hooked to your iPhone for hours at a time and if you think that they should be included, let us know.
