Best Games for iPad: Top 3 Addictive Apps

By Lizzie Mac


When looking for the best games for iPad, it is often a good idea to look at what other people are playing and finding fun. Top Charts can help, but it is also good to get an individual review of an app before buying. If someone else finds the app addicting, you may well get better value for money.

This is my top 3: 1. Angry Birds. This has been the most popular game for a good reason: it is one of the most addicting games for iPad, and once you become drawn into the world of evil pigs and vengeful birds it is hard to put it down. The premise is as follows: the pigs have stolen the birds' eggs and the various birds are trying to attack the pigs' dens which are shelters constructed from a variety of materials. Each bird has a different destructive characteristic, and it is your job to propel each bird toward the shelters at the precise angle required to do the most damage using a catapult. It is a fantastic app and one of the best iPad games available.

2. Flight control. Your job as air traffic controller is to land as many planes as you can safely. You have 4 different kinds of aircraft travelling at different speeds which have to be landed on the correct runways without them colliding with each other. As the game goes on there are more and more planes so your job becomes increasingly difficult. This is a family favourite and has been for many months now, so I can safely say it is addicting and one of the best games for iPad.

3. Mathris. A highly entertaining and addicting game for iPad, Mathris is especially good for children and anyone wanting to brush up on arithmetic skills. On each level there is a target number, and as numbered balls fall into the screen your aim is to tap balls that add up to the target. As they are tapped they disappear from the screen in a Tetris- style fashion, and you must not let the screen fill up. The target number keeps changing to keep you on your toes. Simple and entertaining, Mathris is one of the best free games for iPad.

Many people consider that the best games for iPad are those that make the player want to keep playing for longer and longer, and want to keep coming back for many sessions and record better scores. This is what makes an addicting game, and is the aim of many apps.

There are so many apps available now that it can be hard to know which ones are the best games for iPad. This is a personal selection and I hope you find it helpful.
