Cheap iPhone gamers rejoice. You can have an amazing video game library on your device and never spend a dime. With everything from zombie shooters to licensed professional sports titles, there are a plethora of amazing free games on the iPhone.
Check out our list highlighting the best games on the iPhone that’ll keep your wallet in your pocket. You can thank us later.
10: New Star Soccer: Simple in approach, this nifty little treat features two different gameplay modes and is all about singularity. Sure, soccer is a team sport, but “New Star Soccer” is all about you. The only time you’ll play the ball is when it comes to you. Shoot or pass? It’s all up to you.
9: You Don’t Know Jack: If you’ve never played this series, you’ve probably been under a rock. Silly pop culture quizzes at their most entertaining, YDNJ belongs on your iPhone. Sadly however, you must have an Internet connect to play.
8: X-Baseball: Eight-Bit baseball with a twist. All you have to do is hit the ball, but when the pitcher becomes a Gorilla and bananas start coming from the stands, things get hairy. Although it’s shallow on features, “X-Baseball” is great to pick up and play.
7: The Simpsons: Tapped Out: This game will soon become a monster. Essentially “Sim City” with characters from the world-dominating show, it’s surprisingly chock-full of depth. Perfect for those long train rides or a quick treat before class.
6: Angry Birds: The series that showed the world the iPhone was more than a sexy call-making device. With several different games in the franchise available for free in one form or another in the Apple App Store, “Angry Birds” is an utter delight.
5: Temple Run 2: Much like its predecessor, “Temple Run 2” is fast, addictive and loaded with unlockables. There’s a reason why the mobile game was ported to arcade in places like Dave and Busters; it’s a classic.
4: Candy Crush: This game has taken the world by storm. Just match the pretty little colors. Yeah- if it was that easy. With an excellent presence on social media, don’t expect the game to go anywhere soon.
3: 9 Innings Baseball 2013: A Major League Baseball game on the iPhone that’s licensed by the MLBPA? With all the real players? That plays well? And is free? Why are there so many question marks in this entry? That’s easy; 9 Innings baseball on the iPhone is an enigma. The game is easy to pick up and play and can kill minutes and hours with ease. If you’re a baseball fan and own an iPhone, this is the game you’ll play while waiting for the bus or at the dinner table, as your mother tells you to watch the gravy, which you inadvertently spill on yourself.
2: Robot Unicorn Attack II: This game’s name may seem like a joke, but with customization options galore, killer music and graphics and old-school difficulty, it’s easily one of the best games on the iPhone today.
1: Into the Dead: Zombies are in big time right now, thanks to the success of “The Walking Dead” and “World War Z.” I-Phones are in, too. First-person games have been in for years. Put them all together and you get one of the most polished iPhone games ever. With plenty of game modes, weapons and the type of difficulty that will make you want to throw the phone into the ocean, “Into the Dead” is what iPhone gaming is all about, accessibility, polish and of course, fun.
