Edge
I rather not tout an app that is already popular, but after I found out that it’s not in the Top 50, I was shocked and had to voice my dismay. You see, some time back, I had seen a glimpse of Edge in J2ME on a Sony Ericsson W580i and I was really impressed. Now on the iPhone, I’m even more impressed. For me, it’s reminiscent of Rez (ambiance) and Lumines (visuals) both released under Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s watchful eye at SEGA’s United Game Artists studio and Q Entertainment respectively. Another thing that all three games have in common are tremendous musical scores, which compliment the games so well that you wonder if the games deserve such high praise on their own merits or are you just spellbound by the music? Either way, it doesn’t matter since Edge, like it’s predecessors, seemingly stops time and space. All that matters is the game, in which you negotiate a cube through 43 levels of platforms, obstacles and other puzzle elements while accompanied by 18 great tracks. Now with updated controls and global rankings, this highly addictive quality game is absolutely worth having at any price. Price: $4.99.
