Top iPhone Games of 2012: Gaming on the Go

April 16, 2012 by Ian Miles Cheong

Best iPhone Games of 2012: The iPhone is full of great games, so we’ve decided to compile only the best ones (released in 2012) to save you a lot of time and effort in finding them.

#2 Super Crate Box

Super Crate Box takes the sidescrolling shooter genre and compresses it into a single screen in which a non stop horde of monsters pours forth from the top of the screen. The player—an action hero of sorts—must collect a bunch of crates (hence the game's name) while avoiding, or killing the monsters.

Each crate you collect adds an additional point to your score and equips you with a new gun.

The game is designed in entirely pixel-art form, giving it a retro, if novel look and feel despite its touch controls on the iPad and iPhone.

Price: $1.99
