Here is the list of my Top 10 great iPad games for women that I am currently playing. Check out my iPad Top 10 page from time to time as this list will be changing as I master each new game and move on to the next.
10. Tiny Places HD
This cute and quirky game is so different from traditional games that it will soon see Napoleon the Chameleon worm his way into your heart. Napoleon is trapped in a wide range of tiny places and you need to help him escape by flicking him around various obstacle courses where he attaches himself to minute screws by his tongue. As you escape increasingly challenging scenarios, your brain matter is pushed to figure out the best way to guide Napoleon to freedom. I found this quite a hard game to master at first, but once I had acquired the knack of maneuvering Napoleon around, there was no holding me back. Highly entertaining and great fun, Tiny Places offers great value and a unique gaming concept.
9. Hospital Haste HD
Time management and strategy games were made for iPad! That’s because it’s much easier and quicker to “tap” rather than “click”. Hospital Haste is heaps of fun and is one of those games that you just can’t put down. The aim of the game is to help Nurse Sally to diagnose and treat a range of different patients as they appear in her emergency room. With 5 hospitals to choose from in locations all over the world, you need to earn enough credits to buy upgrades which will help make your job easier and enable you to reach higher levels.
8. Osmos HD
Caution! This game will lead to serious neglect of all household chores, kids, pets, spouses and any other responsibilities you may have! Based on the physics of spheres, Osmos is extremely challenging, addictive and fun and is perfectly suited to the iPad’s interface. The aim of the game is to propel your sphere to becoming the largest on the screen by absorbing sphere’s that are smaller than you. You move your sphere around by tapping in the opposite direction to where you need to go which causes matter to be ejected from your sphere thus propelling you forward. It has two game modes – Odyssey and Arcade – with 72 levels in all for you to master. Featuring beautiful graphics and fantastic electronic music, this is definitely one for those who love a challenge!
7. Unsolved Mystery Club® Case File: Amelia Earhart HD
This lovely hidden-object game offers an interesting glimpse into the life of flying legend, Amelia Earhart. Packed with many interesting facts, the game explores a number of different theories regarding Amelia’s disappearance over the Pacific Ocean more than 75 years ago during her attempt to circumnavigate the world. Actual News Reels of Amelia’s exploits and real voice recordings lend this game an exciting authenticity. Find hidden objects, solve puzzles and complete mini-games to help solve one of the most fascinating mysteries of all time.
6. Mahjong Towers Touch
I love to play this solitaire-type game on a cold rainy day or when I have just a few minutes to relax between tasks. It is a strangely calming way to while away time. With soothing music and smooth gameplay, Mahjong Towers Touch is both challenging and addictive, with many of the layouts requiring numerous attempts to complete. Featuring 192 tile layouts and beautiful graphics, Mahjong Towers allows you to choose from 26 different tile themes, so you’ll never get bored with it. All you need to do is eliminate all tiles from the board by matching two tiles until you free the two golden tiles at the end. This great-value game will keep you coming back for more.
5. Azada – Ancient Magic
This adventure game has lots to offer, from hours of gameplay and challenging puzzles to great graphics and lots of mini-games. You are tasked with discovering why the characters in 21 classic books are acting strangely. You will meet and interact with some of the greatest characters every created, such as Sherlock Holmes, Henry Jekyll, Merlin and Robinson Crusoe. You need to page through every book, looking for clues and collecting items that will help solve each mystery. Once you have cracked all 21 books, the culprit who is permeating Great Uncle Argus’ library with evil will be revealed!
4. Monopoly HD, Here and Now: The World Edition
I loved the board game, Monopoly, as a kid and just love the iPad version too. It has great graphics and sound effects and has seven cute, animated tokens to choose from. Offering four modes of play from very easy to hard, Monopoly has a wonderful international flavour with each property representing beautiful and exotic cities from around the world. You can either play against a computer-generated opponent or play against up to three other people. I have to admit that playing with another person gets extremely tiresome as you have to pass the iPad between you after each move which detracts from the game. I far prefer to play it on my own. Nevertheless, Monopoly recaptures fond childhood memories and offers hours of addictive fun. That said, at $9,99, the price tag is a bit steep!
3. Time Builders: Pyramid Rising
Time Builders: Pyramid Rising is an absolute delight. It’s a time management game that is fun, colourful, challenging and varied. The aim of the game is to help Senmut, royal architect to Queen/Pharaoh Hatshepsut, to rebuild villages and erect monuments, temples and a huge golden pyramid, all while managing resources and hiring workers. The characters are cute and quirky and the wide array of predators and thieves that you have to fend off make this a charming and addictive addition to your game collection. There are plenty of levels to keep you amused for hours on end. Great graphics, cute movie scenes between sections and flawless game play make Time Builders: Pyramid Rising one of my favourites.
2. Star Wars Pit Droids
This old CD Rom game from the Star Wars franchise has been beautifully adapted for the iPad. Featuring funky music, quirky pit droids who potter around in Watto’s junk yard and 95 levels of challenging puzzles, Pit Droids is a huge hit. The aim of the game is to plot a path through and around obstacles and barriers to get the droids to their designated pits, all while challenging your problem-solving and strategizing skills. Great for older kids too, Pit Droids is fun, challenging, with beautiful graphics and smooth gameplay. If you’re a Star Wars fan and if you love puzzles, then you’ll love this game.
1. Where’s My Water?
Without a doubt, this is my all time favourite iPad game. It’s colorful, creative, cute, clever and extremely challenging. The game centres around Swampy the Alligator who desperately needs a bath. Problem is the water has clogged up and you need to help figure out how to get it flowing again. Navigate your way through a series of pipes, obstacles, chemicals, valves, switches, fans and more, to divert the water into Swampy’s bath, all while collecting ducks and a series of collectibles. Featuring 9 chapters and nearly 600 levels, with more in the pipeline, Where’s My Water? is an absolute winner!
