Hi,

I've been looking for a game with good replay value. I currently own: Aurora, Blip Solitaire, Crash Racing, Hold'em (Apple), Monkey Ball, Morocco, Solitaire Top 3, Spinner, Sudoku (EA), and Tap Tap. I really enjoy Sudoku and Solitaire Top 3. I just want a game that will entertain me for 10-20 minutes when I'm in line somewhere. I've been looking at Tetris and Enigmo. How are they?

Are there any other games like Sudoku and Solitaire?

Thanks!

Out of Tetris and Enigmo, i think tetris has more of a replay value. don't get me wrong Enigmo is a great game but i just don't see myself playing anymore now that i've beat all 50 levels. i haven't played Tetris on the iPhone but i've played it for many years and i still love the game.

I was wondering if enigmo would get old!

What does anyone think of:
de Blob
Dizzy Bee
iTilt Pinball
Trism

Thanks Again!!!

Dizzy Bee is by far the best game on the iPhone, and a great value (at only $3). It really makes excellent use of the accelerometer.

Trism is also unique for the iPhone, and I'm currently addicted to it. The regular game (inifinism) is fun, but there's a variant game (syllogism) that's more of a puzzle/logic game, and WAY more interesting (in my opinion).

de Blob is my next purchase....

Another vote for Dizzy Bee (best game) then De Blob (really fun) and then Trism, though I haven't been playing Trism that much since I got Dizzy Bee and De Blob.

My favorite game so far is MotionX poker. The physics and graphics are unbelievable and it's something you can play for an hour or 10 minutes. It does tend to get addictive.

I absolutely recommend this game.

Thanks Guys!

I'm really looking at de Blob and Dizzy Bee now! If I were to get one puzzle game, which one should I get: Tetris or Trism?

Thanks Again!!!

If you want a puzzle game I strongly suggest Aurora Feint. The game is excellent and free.

Yeah, I downloaded that game, love it so far. But, of the two, which one do you like?

Thanks!

I'd have to agree that Cube Runner is a good time killer and is pretty fun to play over and over. I just started playing Enigmo (only at level 5 now) and it's definitely been a good time waster :) The game is fun and takes some doing to get through the levels. Not sure what the replay value will be, but I'd have to think it will be pretty good since by the time you're through level 50 the first levels may seem fresh again.

JirboBreak is fun, too (and free!)

Thanks Guys!

Although, I think I'm going to get Tetris instead of Trism. I'm not big on puzzle games, but I like Tetris. I'm not if would like Trism as much. So, tomorrow I think I'm going to get:

Dizzy Bee
de Blob
Tetris

What do you guys think?

Thanks Again!!! You guys have been extremely helpful today!!!

I can see de Blob being fun on the iPhone. For the same reason it's coming/is out for Wii. :D I don't remember the release date. It's a free app for Windows but if it was free for OSX too, I could use my MBP accelerometer to play and save a few bucks :D

Right now Crash and Enigma are holding well for me.

Dizzy Bee is really good. Best game i have played on the Iphone and it is pretty challenging in later levels. Enigmo is 2nd and SMB is 3rd. These are the 3 games that I have really enjoyed. Oddly enough, Aurora Feint has already been deleted. I know that goes against the grain but, oh well. Haven't tried De Blob or Aqua Forest yet.

I purchased Dizzy Bee, Tetris, and de Blob today. I am in LOVE with these games. In particular, I am really enjoying de Blob. Fantastic game, and for only $8! This game is a must buy!!! They are almost exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks Again!!!

Galcon seems to be popular. Not sure much on replay, like if beyond the 15 single player missions if there's a random mode for a quick game on the go:

I love Galcon!! I don't know where the 15 single player missions came from. I've been playing this game a lot and here's the features.

-10 difficulty options
-5 gameplay modes

Each map seems to be randomly generated and games are quick so it's perfect to play a bunch, or just one. The next update includes sound effects (finally) and in a while there could even be online play :D.

So far I have played Trism more than any other game. It really is great.
And it's easy to save your progress so you can play for just a few minutes here or there.
