iPhone and the essence of computer games

I’ve stuffed my iPhone with several games that remind me of the “classics” I used to play as a kid. I am not referring to just emulators but also games developed just for iPhone.

iCopter – pictured above – is a great example. A straightforward game where you try to keep a helicopter flying forward with single taps on the screen. What makes this game addictive is the quick cycle: typically you will be dead in less than 30 secs and even the best runs take less than a minute. It’s so tempting to try again! My record so far is 546 1263 points (game version 0.1). Can you fly further than that?
