Well this has been a crazy day. Infinity Blade 2 madness all over the place, a surprise Call of Duty announcement, Where's My Water went free with Facebook hijinx, and a ton of other stuff I never expected when I rolled out of bed this morning. I figured things would be slow, since Chair essentially claimed today as their day at the last keynote. But NO! So, this is less of a "coming

Disney Mobile's fairly well-received puzzle game, Where's My Water [$.99], has received another big content update. This latest chapter, which is available now for $0, adds a new steam mechanic, more collectibles, and a total of 20 new puzzles. With this added into the overall level tally, the game can safely boast 120 different levels. Let's focus on that steam mechanic for a second

We've been waiting to see some solid evidence of a Mass Effect 3 companion app for some time, and while we haven't heard anything new since series producer Casey Hudson let the cat ever-so-slightly out of its proverbial bag, we've been re-energized about the prospect �courtesy the latest public comments from the studio's brass. In an interview with BeefJack, Dr. Ray Muzyka praised

The Bearded One attended a somewhat clandestine Activision event a while back to see a very mysterious game. We didn't know anything about it at the time other than it rhymed with "Mall of Beauty," and we were especially not allowed to say anything about it. We weren't sure when it was coming, so we've spent the time since waiting for the high sign that we can let the cat out of the

Yesterday, EA Mobile, err sorry, I mean EA Interactive held their annual winter preview event for the various titles they have slated for release through the end of this year and into early next year. At this event last December, the star of the show was the excellent Dead Space [$6.99/HD] for iOS. This year there wasn't really any jaw dropping titles of that caliber, but EA and

We put incredibly powerful devices in our pockets and on our laps daily, but rarely do we see games that utterly embrace this like Infinity Blade has. It's a showcase piece; a technically and visually gifted game that consistently delivers eye-popping stuff. Infinity Blade 2 is a step a step or two beyond what was accomplished in the original, adding in layers and layers of next-level

Easily one of my favorite platforming games (and just plain favorite games period, really) is this past February's League of Evil [$1.99/Lite] from Ravenous Games and WoblyWare. The game featured bite-sized levels of increasingly difficult platforming challenges in a similar vein to Super Meat Boy, with a great 3 star rating system for each level that begged you to replay over and

Over the past few months, Google has introduced several visual changes to its popular services, and you have probably noticed new and revamped Gmail, and now, Google is preparing another major visual change.

Stories are hard to come by on the App Store. Most games don't bother with even a pretense of a story, and those that do tend to be crammed in rather painfully. It's understandable -- most iOS games are created by tiny teams, often just a programmer and an artist, so there's not much room or budget for writing. Sometimes, though, a game comes by that shows that you don't need to

Love or hate Square Enix, you gotta appreciate the support its throwing behind Chaos Rings Omega [$11.99 / HD] for the iPhone and iPad. For the sixth month in a row, the studio has put together a substantial update to Omega. This latest, which hit the App Store yesterday, raises the bonus content level cap to 150 and adds a new hidden boss, more treasure, two new Piu-Piu collections,

Clay's Reverie [$0.99] is cute. Really, really cute. Cute enough to warrant a warning label. That's how cute it is. ...And hard. In spite of the fleecy clouds and the pink dolphins, SuperGlueStudio's physics puzzler isn't a game for the faint-hearted. One false step and you're dead or, well, whatever passes for dead with doughy-looking things like the protagonist. Here in Clay's

If you're a fan of Red Dead Redemption and similar western-themed horse riding games with lots (and lots) of fighting, Gameloft's upcoming Six-Guns might just be what you're looking for. The environments look pretty impressive, although I'm not entirely sure which games Gameloft will be borrowing the combat mechanic from just yet.

If your iPhone or iPad's memory still isn't full after you gorged on the various Cyber Monday and Thanksgiving deals, know this: most of the celebratory sales are still active on the App Store. In fact, we've discovered a couple more that we couldn't fit in before the holiday break. That's what this post is all about -- the leftovers. For example, Telltale Games has lowered its games'

There's hype building publicity stunts, then there's hype building publicity stunts. Pre-release excitement for Chair's upcoming Infinity Blade 2 is already at an all time high, which apparently has left Chair's PR department scratching their collective heads to come up with what else they could do to promote a game that's already on cruise control for greatness. I'm guessing this

Like it or not, more and more games in a wide variety of genres appear to be taking the freemium route in an effort to be more profitable. Rather than simply taking a binary stance as to the merits of freemium, I'd prefer to look at each game on a case by case basis to see if the developers manage to strike that balance of freemium elements versus playability and, most importantly,

Have you ever secretly wanted to live the life of a taxonomer, pouring over the details of new species to discover their histories? No? How about blocks -- do you like to play with blocks? You might need to fall somewhere within that spectrum to really appreciate Gua-Le-Ni [$4.99], my new favorite taxonomic game. It's a rapid-fire puzzle game with a fantastical approach to the

And the bonus is back. On this week's bonus edition of the TouchArcade show, I go solo and speak with Infinite Dreams co-founder Marek Wyszynski about the creation of Jelly Defense [$2.99], his co-studio's past and present, and how it approaches design as a whole.

One of Skyrim's greatest strengths is its ridiculous amount of content. But that also ties into one of its biggest weaknesses: unless you're insane, you're going to have to pass on some of what the game has to offer in order to retain a measure of focus. The in-game map functionality adds to this pain since doesn't let you jot down notes or throw up readily identifiable markers for

Scribblenauts developer 5th Cell isn't one-and-done with iOS.

Tower defense games are a dime a dozen these days and Wild Defense [99�/$1.99], in spite of its zesty-fresh tropical flavor, doesn't bring anything really new to the table. Still, that doesn't stop it being a moderately entertaining affair.

No one can deny that the advent of Angry Birds made a permanent change to the way people saw iOS gaming. Since its debut in December 2009, the simple bird-launching game has made approximately 27 boatloads of money, and continues to rake it in with merchandise sales such as plushies and more. Naturally, other designers were bound to try to imitate the formula and appeal to the gamers

Hey guys! It's Thanksgiving, and being a holiday that means exactly one thing for iOS gamers: Absolutely massive price drops everywhere. The best part about this is that all of these sales seem to be in effect worldwide, so even if you don't get to partake in the tradition of gorging yourself on turkey, you can still partake in buying games on the cheap.

Just yesterday, a report surfaced regarding Big Fish Games' plans to launch a subscription-based gaming service on the iPad. For a monthly fee initially set at $4.99, the service would allow users to access a number of Big Fish-distributed games through a dedicated app. The app had actually been available since last week, although new subscriptions had been disabled ahead of the

We recorded this week's The TouchArcade Show in the interest of keeping you entertained and (maybe up to date on iOS) while traveling during Thanksgiving break. At the top, we dive into Infinity Blade 2 and our coverage of it. Later, we cover Desert Bus, dabble in video game books, and discuss next-gen iPod Touches. Oh! We also get into the latest and hottest news of the week. Hit

If you've been checking out our front page over this break, then you've probably seen or read about two billion different sales posts. What's up with that? Well, we've split our holiday sales coverage into as many studio-centric posts as possible for the sake of readability. But with any big holiday App Store bonanza, we've come across more than a couple of individual sales that don't

Oh, hey, Kairosoft is getting into sales during the holidays! Starting now, and for a "limited time," two of the studio's lesser known but-still-as-awesome-as-ever simulation games are available on the App Store on the cheap. Both Pocket Academy and Hot Springs Story are seeing a drop from $3.99 to an agreeable $1.99. Money saved! Exclamation marks! Pocket Academy - $3.99 ? $1.99 Hot

Konami is getting into the Thanksgiving mood, too, though in a less bombastic fashion than most of the "big" publishers currently invested in the App Store. Starting this week, you can grab two of its better titles, Gesundheit and Pro Evolution Soccer 2011, for the generous price of $.99. These two games usually sell at around $1.99 or $2.99, so there's a decent chunk of change to be

Another App Store heavy hitter, The Dark Meadow, is the focus of a big old-fashioned sale. Starting just a while ago Phosphor Games's imaginative, cruel, and dark action game is available at $.99.

I've seen a few strange hybrids in my day. Many of them have been described in sentences that end with "... meets Angry Birds," but I'm not complaining. Some of the most interesting games on the App Store have taken unusual inspirations and combined them. Still, I'm not sure what inspired developer Phil Hassey to create a version of Galcon [$1.99 / Lite], his 2008 galactic strategy

The Bard's Tale originally began as a trilogy of hardcore dungeon crawling RPGs released in the mid-80s for desktop computers and gaming consoles. In 2004, InXile Entertainment created a new The Bard's Tale for Playstation 2, Xbox, and PC. This game was related to the original series in name only, and featured 3D action-adventure gameplay rather than first-person dungeon crawling. The

Com2uS and I have a love-hate thing going on. I love many of their games but I absolutely loath their aggressive marketing tactics. Nothing in the world is going to convince me to give you an unwarranted 5-star review. No, not even a small pile of virtual currency.

Surprise! Gameloft is holding a sale in honor of Thanksgiving. For a limited time, the studio is tossing out the regular price of a select 20 of its titles and lowering them to an agreeable ninety-nine cents. It wouldn't be a seasonal break without this kind of slash-and-burn sale from the mega publisher, so we're pretty relieved Gameloft stepped up and confirmed this year's

Com2Us is getting in on the Thanksgiving slash Black Friday action, too. Starting now and, presumably, rolling until early next week, a smattering of titles in the studio's massive App Store catalogue have been reduced to a hair under a buck.

It might be for Charles Schulz' classic Peanuts comic strip or television specials like A Charlie Brown Christmas. But you also might be thinking of something a little more recent.

Chair's Infinity Blade [$2.99] hit the App Store late last year and was met with nearly flawless critical reception. We couldn't help but give it five stars in our review, saying "It doesn't get much more 'must-have' than this." We then went on to name-drop Infinity Blade all over our Best iPhone Games category, listing it highly in every buyer's guide, and every other opportunity we

Recently, we mentioned that Space Tripper [$3.99] - the iOS version of Astro Tripper - has finally been released by True Axis the makers of the popular game: Jet Car Stunts [$1.99 / Free]. After being released on various other platforms over the past decade, it's finally our turn for an iOS port of this top-down arena-based shoot'em-up, which features a main campaign plus score attack

It's a good time to be a word game fan. Every few weeks a new genre standout arrives, ready to tide you over until the next big hit. Now App Store superstar Zach Gage (Unify [$1.99/Free], Bit Pilot [99�], Halcyon [$1.99]) has thrown his hat into the word game ring with SpellTower [$1.99] .

Namco Bandai is getting into the gorging spirit of Thanksgiving Day here in the US and encouraging gamers to gorge on new games for their iOS devices with a week long Thanksgiving sale. There's a staggering amount of games listed on sale, so surely something to pique anyone's interest. Personally, I'm quite partial to Pac-Man Championship Edition, Puzzle Quest 2, and Time Crisis 2nd

Raccoon Rising [99�] from Romper Games is a delightful game about a sleepy raccoon trying to survive when his forest is invaded by an army of robots and their deforestation machinery. After watching the trailer (below), you might expect an endless-vertical jumping game, as it resembles NinJump [Free/HD]. But, it's actually more like a vertical platform game, because you're not

There are all sorts of speaker docks available for iPhone, however, most of these docks run on electricity, and if you're looking for a different type of iPhone speaker dock, we might have the right thing for you.

Just a quick weekend heads-up on a title that will be arriving in 10 days that I've been eagerly waiting four long months for. Back in July we previewed the cave-flyer / gravity game Lander Hero from Polygon Play. At the time, I called it a "charming" title, which is an odd descriptor and one I use rarely -- but it fits. So much is right about the early version that I played through,

On this week's TouchArcade Show, we spend a good chunk of the introductory phase of the show talking about the latest and hottest ... in console games. But immediately after my Skyrim outburst and our shared Modern Warfare 3 discussion, we DO dig into iOS. Jurassic Park: The Game leads the foray. Games like Minecraft: Pocket Edition and Space Tripper, as well as news stories including

I had expected to hear my geriatric iPhone 3GS to croon its swan song when I loaded up Minecraft: Pocket Edition [$6.99] for the first time. It didn't. To my surprise, Mojang's inaugural iOS title actually got along swimmingly with my hardware. Was it a sign of good things to come? Perhaps. Deeply pleased with this turn of events, I went ahead and generated my first world. And that's

NimbleBit's Tiny Tower [Free] had an update land moments ago that among other things, addresses one of the more valid complaints I've seen about the game in that (previously) aside from building up your tower and keeping your store stocked there wasn't much purpose to the game. That's totally valid, as for some, the drive to simply make your tower taller isn't enough. That's where the

Making opera and ballet seem fun and accessible must be an uphill battle. There's no shortage of people with preconceptions about the arts, and most of those preconceptions are about how opera houses may be great places to take a nap. But if The Show Must Go On [$0.99] is any indication, the Royal Opera House has what it takes to make opera interesting to any crowd -- or at least, to

Over this past summer, Bungie had everybody guessing as to just what exactly they were up to by trademarking both the "Crimson" and "Bungie Aerospace" monikers.

I think it's fair to say by now that KlickTock is a master of creating tiny slices of gaming. Three of the four iOS games the developer has produced have been delightfully tiny experiences that squeak in under two minutes -- Super Search 60 [Free / $0.99], Doodle Find [Free / $0.99] and now ZONR [Free] all clock in at 60-90 seconds per play session. But while the older two are both

Jurassic Park: The Game 1 HD [$6.99] is a mixed bag. On one hand, it's a technically messy and poorly optimized iPad 2 exclusive. It stutters and drops frames so consistently that it becomes nearly impossible to enjoy, no less play. And even when you're willing to forgive this fairly fundamental flaw, the roller-coaster-y placement of its sluggish and mundane puzzles has a habit of

Ninja Throw [$0.99 / HD], the latest casual game from Chillingo's Clickgamer brand, is a physics-based puzzler with a decent implementation of some interesting ideas for the puzzle genre.
