Apple’s own Top 30 iPhone games

To celebrate the anniversary of the App Store, Apple has released a list of its Top 30 games. It’s not a list of bestsellers or a list based on user reviews- it’s been compiled by Apple employees as a rundown of their personal favourites.

It would seem that they’ve got similar tastes to us, for the most part, with a great range of games, and not just ones that have set the App Store’s chart alight. There are a few exceptions that we would have added though. Where’s Glyder, for a start. Peggle would probably have slipped into our list too.

Every Top 10 style list brings its own brand of acrimony though, so we’re willing to stop and admite it's a pretty decent bundle of games. Here’s the list:

1. Flight Control
2. Bloons
3. Edge
4. Fieldrunners
5. Toki Tori
6. Rolando
7. Touchgrind
