If you’re easily sidetracked, especially at work, feel free to stop reading here. The following list contains some of the most addictive games that we’ve been able to uncover in the App Store’s massive library. Though the list contains a few mainstays, it is also peppered with a couple of indie games which have flown under the radar. The best thing about the majority of these titles is that they are all available for under $5, yet offer almost limitless replay value. Whether you’ve got a long business trip ahead of you, or you’re just looking to throw off you sleep schedule, give these addictive apps a try!
The first five apps are listed below. Click here to see the top ten on our Blog, Barkings!
10. Super Mega Worm:
One of the more violent games on the list also happens to be the most ridiculous. Super Mega Worm features retro inspired gameplay that harkens back to the 8 and 16 bit glory days. Featuring an absurd storyline meshed with tight and addictive gameplay, this app deserves a spot on the list based on premise alone. $0.99
9. Mega Jump:
What some have written off as a Doodle Jump clone is actually a great game of its own. Though it does feature a similar play mechanic, Mega Jump’s graphics are more detailed and its gameplay is deeper. Players are given a range of characters to choose from, and jump their way through colorful power-up laden stages. Free
8. Mini Gore:
This addictive shooter features some of the most inspired 3D graphics in the App Store. Players fend of enemies with a variety of different weapons in lush, well animated environments. The protagonist John Gore is deceivingly cute, but packs a serious punch. The play style of this game is oriented around short sessions, so it’s perfect if you’ve got five minutes to kill. $0.99
7. Ramp Champ:
The Iconfactory’s take on skee-ball is a gorgeous and well designed app. The game offers a variety of different stages which all feature 3 goals of varying difficulty. Depending on the number of points scored per round, players receive a certain number of tickets. Tickets can be redeemed for a range of different in-game prizes. It’s just like the arcade! Except without that creepy guy emptying the quarters out of the machines. $1.99
6. Paper Toss:
Perhaps the game with the simplest concept on the list, Paper Toss is among the most addictive. If you’ve ever tried to make a basket in the office trash bin then you already know what I’m talking about. Though this game does bear some endorsements, the limited ads are worth it for the price! Free
