So i bought a new 15 pro max today and im downloading some games...some of em dosent work? 1st nicklodeon kart games which appear error bundle something Now rolling sky 2 is not working and get me out of the game Is that normal?

Looking for a good looking Solitaire app that has similar ui like iOS with no adds paid works fine. When I check the paid category all of them pretty much looks the same with different price. Can anyone recommend one that is worth buying?

Please use this thread to discuss whatever iOS games you've been playing lately. They don't have to be new games, they can be old games and they do not have to be iOS original titles!

As long as it's an iOS game it belongs in here. Make sure to put the name(s) of the game(s) in bold to make it easier for people skimming the thread to see what you're talking about, and if you'd like to make it really convenient turn the game name into a hyperlink that sends people directly to the App Store!

To keep track of the thread, the comments are sorted by "new" by default.

Hello, I’ve downloaded the grand theft auto games and I’m looking for recommendations for a controller compatible with the iPhone 13, I’ve read a few reviews on Amazon but not sure I trust them! If anyone knows of a good/reliable controller it would be appreciated, thanks!

I had it recommended to me on the iPhone apps app based on my purchases. And was intrigued by the story of a man who quit his job to work solely on a video game, alone— and that the game was full of secrets, specially designed to be a mobile game experience, and had a sort of mysterious surreal feel.

The other game developers story it reminded me of was Thomas Happ developing Axiom Verge and the guy behind Iconoclast, and those video games turned out brilliantly.

One of my main takeaways after having maybe been playing for at least 3 if not 5 hours I’ve been playing is that this video game is so artistic that I could puke, and I mean that as a compliment.

The art is so simple, minimalist and charming full of character and just a sort of whimsical design of a strange but friendly surreal world. It reminds me a bit of Japanese animation.

The music is feeling inducing nostalgic. And the writing is just a home run.

The way you interact with this world is your given a simple character in pink who with a tap swings a sword with not a lot of range.

The world around you is winding with roads, paths leading in each cardinal direction and hidden paths under the canopy of leaves.

The dialogue appears on the screen as like comic book dialogue bubble, and it gives it a very writerly feel. These characters are very charmingly written with much flavor in how and uniqueness in how they speak.

There’s a lot of humor in the game, and many things seem mysterious and make me wonder what if I made a different choice, like what if I did buy drugs from the guy selling them among the trees just south of town?

Did I just waste all my money on that crappy fake armor from the traveling salesman? Or am I going to unlock some goodshit after all this horseshit bubble paper armor is bought.

The nature of this world. It’s dreamlike, and feels like a sort of afterlife. It’s kind of like the television show Lost, and I am very intrigued into the lore and storyline and just sort of way this video game develops its own unique story its own unique way.

It’s just the atmosphere. The wistful nature, the mysterious mess the dreamlike nostalgic feeling. The charming simplicity of design. This game has really blown me away so far.

Have the economics of mobile made what I'm looking for not an option?

My daughter likes a cute animal breeding game, but it will have her watch like 20 ads to hatch an egg. I am happy to pay $20 for a game like that where you do math instead of watch ads, but I'm guessing no one is making games like that, which is why I can't find it on the App Store. I'm guessing anyone making a game like that would use a subscription model or f2p because not enough people are willing to pay a one-time $20.

Does anyone know of any good games like this? The game she has now does a great job making their cute animals (which they reskin for many other versions of the game). But her time in the game is mostly running ads and not doing anything that requires thinking.

She would play the game on an iPad, so preferably not a game that was only designed for phones.

2 games just popped into my mind from the early 2010s but I don't remember the name. Hoping someone can help.

1. You run a mail/parcel delivery company. Some sort of cartoonish 2D Tycoon game and you progress by buying bigger faster vehicles to transport your mail.

2. You have a company that extracts oil. I remember black gold being in the name. I remember the tutorial has a character who looks clearly like a 1800s industrialist with a top hat.

I know it's really vague but it's all I can remember.

Solo developers don’t get enough love. Share your favorite here!

My top two at the moment are Interloper by developer Mathew Purchase and Bloody Bastards by developer Tibith.

does anyone know any games where you can collect items and trade them with people? specifically speaking a game where items can get rare and Then you can work your way up to get rarer items By trading and collecting.

im open to playing all types of games like these whether they are pets, items, fighting, shooting games etc.

Hi everyone!
I'm excited to introduce our new game: Uprise: War Strategy.

In Uprise, you will become a military commander of a fallen nation, attempting to liberate it from evil foreign invaders.

Our game attempts to blend war strategy, resource management, and turn-based tactical combat.
It combines familiar and easy-to-grasp elements like roguelike map movement, unit building, and tech-tree upgrades.

Each game is uniquely generated, so every "map" feels and plays differently.

Game Brief:

• Game offers 3 different "maps" (operations), each with its own length and guidelines.
• There are 8 different army unit types, each with unique strengths and weaknesses (that can change per operation).
• Long-term progress includes:
  • Commander Medals: Boost your army's abilities for the duration of an operation (Medals are found in map tiles).
  • Tech Tree: All upgrades are permanent and shared across all operations (so even failing to complete an operation means you still make progress and make your life easier on the next try).

The game is $2, with no in-app purchases or ads.

This is our first go at strategy games (after a series of sports sim games), and we would greatly appreciate anyone who checks it out, and we will love to hear any feedback.

All the best!

FourFit is a new word game. Six 4-letter words are jumbled together and you have to pick those words, one at a time. Each word can run up, down, left, and right, and each word has a different color. As you choose a word, the remaining letters drop down, so you have to pick words in the right order. The games get more difficult as you progress, with fewer and fewer words being colored to help you, until all the letters are the same color. You can get a limited number of hints to help you.

There is a Daily Challenge without hints that is the same for all players, and you can share your results of this and all games with other players. You can play their games, too. Get it on the App Store.

Hi everyone !

Finally we are there the game is live on iOS and android ! Thank you to everyone who supported and helped during this journey <3

Login Scene

Main Scene

The game is a classic basic idle / incremental game, in pixel art / castlevania style backgrounds and many assets from the open source game duelyst.
This is my very very first game project so there are still a few bugs (updating on Monday to fix a few things), so don't be surprised if a few things don't work instantly (currently idle time doesn't stack up in some cases, gear levels drop down in some cases, and a few others that are reported on the discord, they are already fixed for Mondays update, coming with a few QoL improvements, and new achievements)
If you are interested feel free to download the game and leave a review / feedback on the discord if you want to ! (Link in game in the settings, don't want to publish it here since many bots with only"under the belt" content joined to "share love"),

PS : In this game as in every single of my future projects, everything will be free to play, no IAP will boost your power and have an impact on how you compete against other players,

The only purchases you will find are a cheap no ad pack (2.99) and skins (1.99),
If playing without no ad, you will still only have 4 ads a day at most, that are not mandatory at all, you can still play and enjoy the game at your pace without these ads (2 ads to have 2 more attempts at a side content, and 2 ads to have +5 dungeon keys each, 10 daily keys base)

Thanks again for the support, and have fun !! ;D

tl;dr 0 - (disclaimer) Mobile Gaming has seen a bit of a decline this year, but it is still the biggest gaming platform in the world. I messed up last year with my predictions, So this year I am taking a different POV at the games being released and how I rank them in my videos.

tl;dr 1 - Q1 2024 has ended, and here is my list of the top 10 mobile games for this period: Ex Astris, Hades, Warframe Mobile, Warzone Mobile, Little Nightmares, Death’s Door, The Longing Mobile, Phantom Blade: Executioners, Caves of Lore, and Zombotron Re-Boot (I give my reasons for choosing each one, so if one of these confuses you, make sure to read the post before raging 😂)

tl;dr 2 - I made all of this with game footage into a short HQ video here: https://youtu.be/hQBqBSoHV-4

But for those of you who prefer to read, here is the Video Script:

Q1 just ended and game developers have already released some incredible games. Mobile gaming had a little bit of a decline this year on the world stage, but it is still by far the biggest gaming platform on earth. The problem of course is that there are too many games to choose from, so let’s get into the top 10 mobile games of Q1 for 2024.

As usual, this video is not talking about the top charts of the Play Store or the App Store. Most of those games are trash and the ones that are not, have been around for years. Rather, this video focuses on the AAA games that you’ll only hear about from your friends, except hopefully I’ll be telling you about them first. 

The first game on our list is Ex Astris, a 3D sci-fi RPG, showcasing stunning visuals and engaging gameplay. You'll play as Yan, an investigator from Earth, tasked with exploring the vibrant world of Allindo. One of the standout features of Ex Astris is its innovative combat system, which combines elements of both real-time and turn-based gameplay. Players have the opportunity to time their attacks strategically, allowing for counter maneuvers and devastating combo attacks alongside allies. Each character in the game boasts its own unique backstory and set of skills, adding depth to both the narrative and gameplay experience. Unlike traditional RPGs that rely heavily on random battles and grinding, Ex Astris offers a more streamlined progression system that emphasizes skillful gameplay over mindless repetition. Success in battles hinges on the player's ability to master timing and strategy, rather than simply relying on brute strength. This approach not only keeps the gameplay challenging and rewarding but also ensures that every encounter feels meaningful and engaging.

The second game on our list is Hades, originally made by Supergiant Games and ported to mobile devices by Netflix Games. This highly acclaimed indie roguelite top-down action game immerses players in the role of the son of Hades himself, Zagreus, as he attempts to escape the underworld. While rooted in the roguelite genre, Hades distinguishes itself with a strong focus on narrative, making it one of the most story-driven experiences within the roguelite category. Between each action-packed run, you’ll be progressing a narrative full of twists and turns as you speak to the members of your house within the Underworld. These include the likes of Hades, your father, who will berate you and insist that you cannot and should not escape constantly, along with other characters that add layers to the narrative, providing players with a unique and immersive storytelling experience. Hades has gained widespread recognition within the gaming community for its unique blend of challenging roguelite gameplay and a compelling narrative. Its success lies not only in its gameplay mechanics but also in its ability to make the often daunting roguelite genre more accessible and enjoyable for a broader audience.

The Third game on our list is Warframe Mobile, the port of the popular sci-fi MMO third-person shooter. At the core of Warframe Mobile is a dynamic gameplay loop where players embark on missions, level up, and amass an arsenal of new weapons and gear. The thrill of completing objectives and overcoming challenges is complemented by cooperative missions, where players unite to strategize and confront enemies as a cohesive team. A standout feature is the game's robust crafting system, empowering players to craft new weapons and equipment using resources gathered during missions. This adds a strategic layer, encouraging resourceful exploration and customization of loadouts to tackle diverse missions and challenges. Warframe Mobile delivers the same fast-paced, action-packed gameplay that has enamored fans of the original, all while introducing mobile-specific features for an optimized gaming experience.

The fourth game on our list is Warzone Mobile, the mobile adaptation of the Call of Duty battle royale mode. This mobile port follows in the footsteps of the highly successful Call of Duty Mobile, which made a significant impact on the mobile gaming landscape upon its release in 2019. With over 14 million in gross revenue during its first week, Call of Duty Mobile quickly established itself as a powerhouse in the mobile gaming industry, boasting one of the largest player bases worldwide. With Warzone mobile, the game brings some of the most iconic maps from the Warzone including maps like Verdansk and Rebirth Island. Moreover, the game introduces the feature of battle pass cross-progression across all platforms, allowing players to seamlessly continue their progress regardless of the device they are using. This means that operators and weapons unlocked on the mobile version can be carried over to PC and console, and vice versa, ensuring a consistent experience across platforms and enabling players to maximize their gameplay potential regardless of their preferred gaming setup.

The fifth game on our list is Little Nightmares. This game was ported by Playdigious which is one of my favorite mobile game publishers because they always do a really quality job. Little Nightmares is an adventure horror game that puts players into a hauntingly beautiful yet nightmarish setting aboard a mysterious sea vessel, where they assume the role of a child adorned in a distinctive raincoat. The vessel is not only filled with deadly traps but is also inhabited by grotesque and terrifying humanoid creatures, all seemingly driven by a malevolent intent to consume the player's character. The narrative unfolds as players navigate the strange environment, revealing the unsettling truth behind the ship and its monstrous inhabitants. What sets Little Nightmares apart is its deliberate lack of combat for the majority of the gameplay. Faced with adversaries of staggering proportions, engaging in direct confrontation becomes an implausible option. Instead, players must master the art of stealth, skulking through the shadows to avoid the clutches of the grotesque denizens who relentlessly pursue the protagonist.

The sixth game on our list is Death’s Door, an exceptional action-adventure game. In Death’s Door, players assume the role of a Crow tasked with hunting down a stolen soul in order to maintain the balance of the afterlife. As a soul-reaping Crow, players must traverse through a mysterious and immersive world, engage in combat encounters using both melee and ranged weapons, while also tackling puzzles all while trying to get to the bottom of why things that should be dead just won't stay dead.One of the standout features of Death’s Door is its remarkable level and world design, which immerses players in a richly detailed and atmospheric environment. The fluid combat mechanics further enhance the gameplay experience, providing players with a satisfying and dynamic combat system. Additionally, the game offers a diverse array of weapons that players can wield, each with its own unique characteristics and playstyles. Furthermore, the ability to upgrade stats adds depth to character progression, enabling players to enhance their Crow's capabilities as they embark on their journey to confront epic dungeon bosses.

The seventh game on our list is The Longing Mobile, a distinctive 2D singleplayer adventure game that offers a truly unique experience. Inspired by a German legend depicting a king awaiting the right time to awaken from beneath a mountain, The Longing plunges players into a slow-paced journey centered around the passage of time. The core mechanic of the game revolves around waiting, with players tasked with enduring a 400-day period of solitude. Despite its seemingly simplistic premise, The Longing presents players with a myriad of activities and tasks to engage in throughout their journey. As players navigate the cavernous depths of the underground world, they must explore and uncover secrets while contending with the challenges of solitude. While time may appear to pass slowly, players can manipulate it by collecting items scattered throughout caves and arranging them in their living space. Additionally, players can also try to escape from the cave towards the top; however, they must venture through an extremely dark and dangerous path. As the days tick by, several obstacles will surface, each showcasing a unique use of time. While The Longing may not cater to the fast-paced gameplay typically found in modern titles, it offers a deeply immersive and contemplative experience that encourages players to reflect on the concept of solitude and the passage of time.

The eighth game on our list is Phantom Blade: Executioners, a 2.5D hack-and-slash action RPG that offers players an immersive experience filled with fast-paced combat and engaging storytelling. With a choice of four unique characters, players play through the dungeon-like campaign levels, each packed with challenges and excitement. Beyond its visually stunning aesthetics, the game also boasts a rich narrative that delves into themes of intrigue and politics, adding depth and complexity to the gameplay experience. At the heart of Phantom Blade: Executioners lies its dynamic combat system, characterized by its fast-paced action and intricate combo mechanics. Players must master the art of chaining combos to effectively dispatch formidable adversaries and overcome daunting obstacles. Unlike games with auto-battle features, Phantom Blade: Executioners places a premium on player skill and strategy, requiring precise timing and tactical decision-making on the battlefield to emerge victorious. 

Phantom Blade: Executioners on the App Store (apple.com)

The ninth game on our list is Caves of Lore, a pixelated turn-based RPG. Set in a dark cavern plagued by a strange fog known as the Calamity, players embark on a quest to uncover the truth behind this mysterious phenomenon and restore the lost memories of the people affected by it. In Caves of Lore, players gather a party of adventurers and navigate through treacherous dungeons, each grid filled with hidden secrets and fiends waiting to be discovered. As players progress through the game, they gradually unravel the mysteries of the Calamity and piece together the forgotten memories of their own past. The game's narrative unfolds through a series of engaging text-based interactions, where players encounter a diverse cast of characters and embark on various quests across different areas of the world. Along the way, players must make strategic decisions in turn-based battles, utilizing formations, skills, and terrain to outmaneuver their foes and emerge victorious. Despite its pixelated graphics, Caves of Lore boasts charming visuals and environments that capture the essence of classic RPGs.

Caves of Lore on the App Store (apple.com)

The tenth game on our list is Zombotron Re-Boot, an atmospheric 2D action platformer.  As players assume the role of a skilled mercenary, they must navigate treacherous dungeons teeming with various adversaries, including zombies, evil robots, and other undead creatures. Set on a once-colonized planet that has long been abandoned and forgotten by humanity, the game unfolds against the backdrop of a desolate landscape fraught with peril. At the heart of Zombotron Re-Boot lies its dynamic gameplay, characterized by fast-paced action and strategic combat encounters. Armed with an arsenal of powerful weapons, players must confront hordes of enemies while utilizing the environment to their advantage. From destructible obstacles to interactive elements, the game's immersive physics engine allows players to employ creative tactics to overcome their foes and emerge victorious.

So those are the top 10 mobile games of 2024, but I do have 3 more honorable mentions for you.

The first one is Katana Zero, an action-platformer renowned for its stylish presentation and exhilarating gameplay, ported to mobile devices by Netflix Games. Set in a dark and gritty world, players assume the role of a skilled assassin armed with a katana, tasked with unraveling the mysteries of their own past. The game's breakneck action and instant-death combat mechanics provide players with a challenging yet rewarding experience as they slash, dash, and manipulate time to overcome formidable adversaries. Unfortunately the game is currently only available in the Philippines, with its global release sometime this year.

Katana ZERO NETFLIX on the App Store (apple.com)

The second honorable mention is Rainbow Six SMOL, a roguelike shooter experience set in a dynamic and challenging environment. At its core, the game revolves around completing various missions that range from defusing bombs to rescuing hostages. These missions require players to navigate through destructible buildings, strategically plan their approach, and engage in tactical combat encounters with enemy forces. One of the standout features of the game is its top-down isometric perspective, which provides players with a unique vantage point of the battlefield. This perspective allows for strategic planning and precise coordination of movements and attacks, adding depth and immersion to the gameplay experience. However, failure comes at a cost, as losing a mission results in the permanent death of the player's recruit, requiring them to start anew.

Rainbow Six: SMOL - NETFLIX on the App Store (apple.com)

The last honorable mention is Soul Knight Prequel. For those who may be unfamiliar, the original Soul Knight, which debuted in 2017, stands as one of the finest action-adventure games available on the mobile platform. If you have yet to experience its brilliance, I wholeheartedly recommend giving it a try. For those who have already delved into the world of Soul Knight, there is further good news. ChillyRoom, the developers behind the original title, have been diligently crafting a new 2.5D role-playing action-adventure game set within the same universe. This new installment expands the lore and backstory of the beloved characters from the original Soul Knight.  Notably, the inclusion of Easter eggs referencing the original game has generated significant excitement among fans. So I cannot emphasize enough that if you like action adventure games, you will want to get into this series.

All right guys, I'll see you next time!

You probably know the genre: you control a plane or some flying device / creature and shoot waves of incoming enemies. Game is continually scrolling vertically. Famous examples include. Xenon II, Midway 1942/1943. Defeated enemies can leave power ups.

I’m looking for a good game like that for iOS with well working controller support. I’ve tried Galaga (Arcade) and Skyforce, but if I recall correctly, they don’t have controller support.

Hey can you recommend some good games to fill the time in airports and flights? Something not too hard on battery ideally so I’d like to avoid 3D games. Any genre is fine. Thanks!

So as the title says I have Xbox elite controller and it doesn’t show dead cells as having support what to do?

I haven’t had luck in finding any good platformers on the AppStore. I’ve done some research and I’ve found some good ones but I want to ask Reddit ppl to see if they have any suggestions, the more the merrier lol.

Quite some years ago I was playing Holy Potatoes: We’re in space!

I used to play this on an old iPad, but now I want to start playing it on my iPhone instead. But when I go to the App Store, I only have the purchase option, and not the cloud with an arrow icon that usually is there when you just wanna re-download something.

Do I really have to buy the game twice? I thought it was linked to my apple account.

Photo is proof of me actually having a few achievements.
