My Top Games of 2009 on iPhone/iPod touch

I just feel compelled to tell the world my views on the top games I played all through last year.The iPhone has revolutionized the portable gaming platform, I no longer am compelled to complete COD4 or Assassins Creed 2 , Iv DoodleJump to master :P .The iPhone has become my favorite gadget and now I cannot imagine a life without it.

TOP GAMES:
1.Doodle Jump :
In all aspects of life , every individual on earth is compelled to achieve more than the other (human nature) every one wants to go places , everyone wants to go UP.


That is exactly what Doodle Jump lets you do.You control a tiny monster and you jump on platforms and go to a higher level.You come across several monsters on your way to the NEVER ENDING top.To kill 'em,you tap in their direction and the little doodle monster shoots pellets at them.Sometimes you can also jump on them to kill 'em/jump higher.
This game has seen through several phone generations (iv had this game since ipod touch 2g through iphone 3gs).I highly recommend it and no iPod or iPhone should be without this game.
My highest score so far is 71,630(around 8 minuets into the game)
The all time highest so far is 2,210,614 played by a madman .
(if you fancy it you could play through the game is a snow mode,which was released for Christmas)


2.Charadium :
Imagine this, Sitting in a room with complete strangers and guessing what 1 person is doodling.SO MUCH FUN.

In this game 1 person does the drawing and the others take guesses on what the drawing might be.The game also offers several trophies to be won.Both the doodler and the right guesser gets points depending on how long it takes him/her to guess the particular word.Hours of non-stop fun.
If you fancy it, you can invite a few of your friends to play in your own private room.Provided they have the same game.This game is powered by the Plus+ network (by now every iPhone owner would probably have the Plus+ id thanks to ngmoco:) ) .The new updates are really good.It gives you the options to flag off words and party poopers :P.
Definitely check it out.Besides its only a dollar with unlimited amount of fun.Developer promises new updates so that the words would never repeat(that would be fantastic).




3.OMG! Pirates :

Fancy good graphics , fancy tiny cartoons ,you'll love OMG!Pirates.This game got several mixed reviews.Most of them complain on how the campaign is too short or how most enemy pirates look the same(with a little color difference,ofcourse),bla bla ,bla.....Say what you want,but I absolutely enjoyed this game every time I played it.The controls are rather simple you control this tiny ninja with the scroll wheel.The red button lets you attack(at higher levels you can do better combos),The green button lets you jump while moving and lets you counter attacks when staying still. Once you get the hang of things its rather simple to complete the game.
The survival mode is unlocked when you complete the campaign in any mode you want.
I do agree the campaign is rather short,but its form the same developer of Zombieville :) meaning updates will definitely add more contents (not just bug fixes) :P.The maximum attainable level is level 30.And its easier to beat the game in Medium difficulty at this point.Hard mode is absolute crazy only a madman with freaky finger talents can complete the game in Hard mode(of course I meant without dying and getting Master rating on all levels :P )

4.Face Fighter:

Whats more fun than beating up your boss who keeps restricting your internet access to just Google or that annoying kid who keeps knocking on your door every morning just cause he wants to???NOTHING.And doing this without going to prison ??? PRICELESS.
Thats what Facefighter is all about,such a stress reliever ,take a hAppy face (pun ?) and punch/kick/chicken slap/swat it till you Knock the f*sh out of him.
The developer has made several updates and now Bluetooth multiplayer option has been added making it even better to fight your friends locally....(Oh ! how I wish I could play worldwide).
All you need is a photo of the person you want to fight with and your all set.Appy also included some pre-set Characters to fight with(with their own signature entries)Bat boy, Big ben ,Mime guy...Its rather easy playing in Medium Mode.It gets very difficult in the hard mode.Make several combos and you will be awarded with "Legendary fury" where you get either a chicken ,fly swatter or pan to whoop the enemy.
At the end of the fight you will be awarded"Immortal Judgement" depending on your luck you can either electrocute, stomp , piranha kill your enemy.
An added perk , the developer of Appy Entertainment (Paul) is such a down to earth guy,responds to all your crazy mails and requests.Do buy this game its a lot of fun.

5.Plushed :

Usually, I never buy adventure games , I hate the fact that games have to end.It just poops my happiness to see the credits rolling.But Plushed ,developed by Blacksmith games has a certain touch to it ,which every person would love to play.You control an armored rabbit which travels through a fairytale collecting golden ladybugs and solving puzzles to get to his owner.The game graphics are absolutely stunning.It reminds me so much of Braid which was an absolute classic.There is a certain amount of humor to the game like a talking sword (I absolutely love this guy) and an overweight red riding hood.There are quite a few puzzles to solve through the game,but the fun does not end there.The developer has also installed 3 mini games (with endless game-play and leader-board ,ofcourse ).
If I had to put something negative in there,the only minus point is that when the bunny contacts an enemy he dies instantly ,taking you back to the last checkpoint :(  )
The developer of this game is responsible for the all famous appvent calender.He gave out a free game every day till Christmas (so sweet :D).These games were otherwise paid apps on the Appstore.Out of these I really liked Mini Squadron and 33rd division. There were also 2 contests held 1 for a new character design for plushed and another for a poem , funny situation or card.(I actually won the funny situation photo and got a 15$ gift card on itunes,YAY) .
And if thats not enough.I feel compelled to buy the game after all the developer game me so many other games for free :D.
