AirAttack HD is the best air combat shooter in the
App store. Anyone who enjoyed Capcom’s arcade standard “1942” (or any of its follow-ups) will instantly recognize its style and appreciate the similarities. Its eight missions will keep people entertained for a long time — and are different enough from each other to prevent any feelings of repetition. While sections are a bit overly difficult, the game lets you pick up from your last checkpoint, so there’s never a real penalty for losing.

Your kids won’t get bored, even long after they’ve figured out how to solve the puzzles.

App review: Plunderland
Plunderland is a side-scrolling game, like early Sonic or Mario

The premise is pretty basic: Sail from port to port, pillaging as you go, battling the English army, sharks, sea monsters, and (if you choose to engage them) island natives. It’s simple to learn, graphically appealing, and lets players interact with the environment to an impressive degree (much like Pocket God).
