The
Walking Dead: The Game
Apple’s critically acclaimed 2012 Game of the
Year is a challenging, quick-thinking horror adventure based on Robert
Kirkman’s award-winning comic book series. In the fight for survival against
the undead, the outcome changes with every move, so there’s no time to waste.
Rayman
Jungle Run
This charming tropical adventure was named
Apple’s iPhone Game of the Year and App Store Best of 2012. With 40 levels of
chasms, ropes, snowy jungles and waterfalls to navigate, there’s no slowing
down. Collect missing teeth, unlock powers, and master the Land of the Dead!
Bastion
Game
Informer Magazine called this beautiful beast of a battle “a must
play.” It features a huge arsenal of weapons, a reactive narrator that responds
to each move, and 40 different challenging environments. Awarded 4.5 out of 5
stars by reviewers and Best Pick of 2012 by the App Store, Bastion has what it takes to entertain.
The
World Ends with You: Solo Remix
This seven-day gauntlet features a boy named Neku
who is trying to survive the mysteries and dangers of Tokyo. The vivid HD art,
sophisticated battle system and addicting challenges live up to its 5-star
reviews. The New York Times called it
“one of the best role playing games ever.”
Plants
vs. Zombies
This lively and colorful game is dead on! It
calls for quick-thinking strategy when mischievous zombies invade your home.
Coming to aid are a bunch of fresh zombie-mulching plants, such as peashooters,
wall-nuts, cherry bombs and more. Five game modes offer plenty of options to
“dig into.”
Angry
Birds Star Wars
Of the Top Paid iPhone apps of 2012, three of the
popular Angry Birds games came in the
top ten (Angry Birds Space, Angry Birds Star Wars, and Angry Birds). A recent Apple Editor’s
choice, Angry Birds Star Wars comes
complete with rebel pigtroopers and Darth Vador, Lord of the Pigs. Securing
freedom for the galaxy has never been more fun.
Temple
Run 2
With over 170 million downloads, the world-famous
Temple Run is a longtime favorite. The new and improved sequel is one of the
top free apps on iPhone and iPad and has earned 4.5 out of 5 stars by reviewers.
It boasts an exhilarating amount of running, jumping, turning and sliding—off
cliffs, on zip lines, over mines and through forests.
