Downside of Scribblenauts is that it is very short.

Both from Touch Arcade:
"Simply put, Wizardry is just a hardcore game. Check it out on iOS, and you will find it is almost exactly like the PS3 version, with two small differences -- it's Game Center enabled, and the lovely detail of the art is more or less lost on the iPhone's tiny screen. I think the game would be much more enjoyable on the iPad if you chose to get it for a portable device, but if you had access to all options, PS3 would be the way to go. It's clear lots of attention and effort was put into the art, and it's a shame to see it all tiny and squished up on a little screen."
"Greed Corp is a turn-based strategy game that encourages players to engage in something one step shy of mutually assured destruction. You destroy the lands you harvest, and firing on your enemies crumbles away the ground beneath them.You win as long as you have at least a single unit on a single hex and your enemies don't. This brutally aggressive game first made its debut on Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Network in the early months of 2010, but it's hardly aged in the time it's taken to arrive on iPad. It's also extremely well done for the most part, offering a natural touch interface and both single and multiplayer content."

Is bumpy road really this basic? Like two levels, period? Also this is really tricky to play and the side scrolling is so aggravating!

weren't you guys playing that 1000 heroes game? it's free today.

too bad it really isn't very good
― Mordy, Tuesday, 15 November 2011 00:27 (twelve years ago) link
fun in the beginning, but got very tedious very quickly
Once the new age started I was like "oh, this is all they're adding? how lame" and then they started having pop up ads all over it and I was like "delete"
― polyphonic, Tuesday, 15 November 2011 00:29 (twelve years ago) link
That said I played it every day for like a hundred days.
Temple Run is so goddamn great. hard to play in the sun though.
also KING CASHING OMG OMG OMG; it's like Slingo meets Puzzle Quest.

I think I've reached to point in temple run where I've done. About the best I can do.

I broke just 400k on temple run; this game rulz
― Sally Field hysterically shrieking "Gloria fucking SWANSON!!!" (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 17:17 (twelve years ago) link
My high is 990,000, 2627 coins.
― Jeff, Tuesday, 15 November 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
the only prob with temple run is it should show you how much you've run as a running tally. (no pun intended).
also, the fact that there are three score variables (distance, points and coins) seems... inelegant.
― the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 17:20 (twelve years ago) link
my highest score on Temple Run is like 200k. last week I introduced a couple of buddies at work to it; yesterday one of them announced that they'd had a 660k run and had already unlocked all of the alternate costumes. damn kids and their vidya gaming prowess.
