We Rule iPhone

We Rule on iPhone places you in charge of a little kingdom, growing food and manufacturing goods for money and experience. Its toytown charm makes it fun for a while, but connectivity issues may mean missed opportunities when you can't access your kingdom. If Farmville is your idea of fun, this one's for you.

Angry Birds iPhone

Angry Birds is 59p on iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch and has sat at the top of the top 100 apps for weeks, with good reason. Charming design and a fantastic understanding of the iPhone's unique features created this success for developer Rovio.

Best iPhone Poker Apps

A search for 'poker' in the iPhone App Store will swiftly confirm that the iPlatform has not escaped the craze. A multitude of apps for playing on various online free-play sites, calculating the maths, timing your home tournaments or even watching manga girls take their clothes off as you beat them. It seems that whatever floats your (full) boat, something with a poker tie-in is probably available.

Poker Superstars III iPhone

Poker Superstars III is a fast, well presented and enjoyable iPhone poker experience. At times limited by its format and haphazzard AI, it still manages to be a good choice for the novice/improving player looking for some poker glam to brighten up their lunch break.

World Series of Poker: Hold'em Legend iPhone

World Series of Poker: Hold'em Legend joins the astronomical rise in popularity of poker over the last few years. Not only does it provide a game of real scope but it's also a lot of fun.

World Poker Tour Texas Hold'em iPhone

World Poker Tour Texas Hold'em! starts promisingly, with a slick, World Poker Tour video giving way to a clear, nicely built menu all topped off with a welcome voice over from the Poker Ambassador himself, Mike Sexton. But there pretty much ends the positive things I have to say about the game.

Fling! iPhone

Final slot in our round up of the best entertaining iPhone games you can buy for less than the cost of a decent daily newspaper belongs to the slickly presented, fiendishly addictive and hugely popular puzzler, Fling! This is possibly the simplest of the three games in our cheap game round up, although that is perhaps not too surprising given that it's the one iPhone puzzle game in the group - a genre that has proven again and again that 'simple done well' is king.

Minigore iPhone

Continuing our best 59p iPhone game theme, this week I've been playing about with Chillingo's pint-sized iPod Touch/iPhone shooting game Minigore. In summary, biting, black furry things run at you from all sides, and you, John Gore - a square-jawed, Clint Eastwood-esque, all-American hero - must fend them off by shooting their faces with your gun.

Doodle Jump iPhone

Bucking my recent trend towards covering the bigger iPhone and iPod Touch releases and more expensive titles available in the iTunes App Store, over the next three weeks I'll be having a close look at three popular games priced at just 59p. First up, the incorrigible bounce-fest that is Doodle Jump: a simple, cutesy, hand-drawn style jumping game that is far more satisfying and addictive than the sum of its parts might suggest.

FIFA 10 iPhone

Well, they kept us waiting, but for my money the release of the long awaited FIFA 10 on the iPhone/Pod demonstrates merited confidence and a commitment to entering a market with a polished product. Despite its late arrival at the party, FIFA 10 does exactly what we were all expecting - it oozes class and delivers unrivalled depth. While it's by no means a perfect game, it muscles the competition off the ball with some ease.
