Fieldrunners, Friday, iPhone, iTunes App Store, Magic: The Gathering, Orions: Legends of Wizards, Tower Bloxx Deluxe 3D, Tower Defense

If my toddler has taught me anything, it’s that any trouble life throws your way can be solved with a quick sit-down with an iPhone and Tower Bloxx Deluxe 3D.  Walking in to the ‘mandatory’ meeting with HR?  Sit down and play some Tower Bloxx – if it turns a hysterical crying baby into a calm, gurgling tyke chances are it can do the same for you.

Each week, Mg reviews some of the hottest iPhone trinkets and games available in the US, and hopefully help guide some of those hard-earned iTunes dollars to a loving home.  If you have a favorite that we’ve not reviewed, drop us a line and point us in the right direction.

This week we’re going to start with a new favorite, an instant classic, and a solid pick for iPhone gamers.

Our new favorite: Tower Bloxx Deluxe 3D

This addictive stacking-skill game is not only excessively lovely, but it’s easy to pick up and play for five minutes, too.  A party mode lets two people get in on the action at the same time, making this $6.00 title well worth the bucks.

Our instant classic: Fieldrunners

My toddler can’t get enough of Fieldrunners, which makes him the coolest two-year old in the city.  If you’re looking to blow 5 bucks in the App Store, this ‘Tower Defense‘ style game is not only extremely polished, but it’s a great way to kill an hour at the airport.  Strategy gamers must own this game.

Our solid pick: Orions: Legends of Wizards

If you missed the Magic: The Gathering phenomenon by a few years, don’t fret!  Orions: Legends of Wizards combines a magic-and-monster card game with a touch of city-management strategy for flavor.  The combo makes this 5 dollar purchase a solid pick if you are a fan of M:TG or card based strategy games in general.

Drop back by next Friday for three more stellar time-wasters for your favorite phone.
