Long for gaming’s good old days? They’re alive and kicking on the App Store. Check out these fan faves that have been revamped with a new, modern spin.
Road royalty
Mario may be the star, but his powersliding pals steal the show in Mario Kart Tour. It’s all here: drifting, item boxes, karts, gliders, and classic tracks like Rainbow Road! Just watch out for those pesky blue shells.
Catch ’em all
Pokémon have been around for decades, but they’ve never gotten you moving like in Pokémon GO. With a steady stream of awesome updates and hundreds of iconic creatures to catch as you wander the real world, Niantic’s groundbreaking hit keeps evolving in all the right ways.
Gobble ghosts
Gaming icon Pac-Man is more than the cherry-chomping yellow circle of yesteryear. In the iOS version, there are dozens of new, fiendishly tricky mazes to unlock as you dodge danger in cool modes like Pac-Missions and Tournaments.
Go solo
You’ve never played solitaire quite like this. In game design guru Zach Gage’s Flipflop Solitaire, line up cards in sequential order—or reverse your plays. Live a little and drop that annoying seven of hearts beneath the six!
Break out of the ordinary
Micro Breaker brings a new dimension to the ball-and-paddle brick-breaker. Forget flat bricks—you now smash stacks of 3D cubes while juggling power-ups and field effects. Look out for sudden gravity shifts and multi-ball blitzes!
