View Comments CommentsPosted by AppSmile Team on 07/27/2009 under Best Apps, Car Games, Racing Games
Real Racing, Firemint’s follow-up release to the hugely popular Flight Control, is the best racing game available in the app store. Period. Lacking the arcade-style, Hollywood-infused, teenage-rebel elements like nitrous boosters, as well as the racing simulation amenities like spending points on tuning your vehicle and buying spoiler upgrades, Real Racing has settled nicely into that mid... more.

iPhone Game Review: Medieval Conquers as Strong Castle Defense iPhone Title
View Comments CommentsPosted by AppSmile Team on 07/20/2009 under Best Apps, Castle Defense Games

Medieval incorporates elements of both defensive and offensive strategy, so defending is not even half way to victory. The ultimate objective is to either destroy the enemy castle or capture their flag and bring it home. Brisk Mobile chose the path of realism over fantasy (i.e., weird ... more.
