 * osu!
 * Rhythm.
 * Port of the PC fangame (of Elite Beat Agents/Ouendan); does a pretty good job even if it's only a rudimentary port, but it glitches occasionally on 4.2 and up. Requires jailbreaking. osu! Stream is the "official" osu! app, being in the app store and all, and it's much higher quality. Song list is extremely limited for the time being, however. While Stream doesn't let you import songs from the PC version, osu! vanilla does and so has a much larger song list.

 * Shoot 'em Up
 * Port of the PC version. The game is essentially an endless boss rush, and it features 4 different game styles that spice up gameplay, as well as having a fuckton of stages (All you do is pick a game style, and then a stage, and then you play until you die). One of the game modes is basically Ikaruga! It's free, so there's no reason NOT to get it. Paid version is exactly the same, but minus ads.

 * Zenonia.jpg
 * Zenonia series
 * RPG
 * Zenonia is like a Genesis or Super Nintendo ARPG which introduces fresh concepts to the genre like the day-night system and the great skill tree for customizing the hero. Highly recommend for both retro gamers and adventure fans. The sequel, Zenonia 2, fixes many small issues with the first game and is generally considered to be superior. "Zenonia 3", has sharper looking graphics, removes the hunger and inventory weight limits, and continues the saga. Each game contains different classes to play around with. And there's also Zenonia 4, and it's free.
