I have one of the Final Fantasy games on my cell phone, and the user experience is really not good for a cell phone game. One kind of game I expected to do really well and I'm still waiting, is graphic adventure games. In either case, I think the problem is recognizing that smartphone games are similar but different to handheld consoles, I'm sure there are plenty of insights to be had - maybe game sessions of 5-15 minutes instead of whatever handhelds have This article says they're equal, but maybe it's a chicken and egg problem :) http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/iphone-gaming-sessions-equal-to-ds-and-psp http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/iphone-gaming-sessions... "traditional mobile games are played for around six minutes at a time" "with Rolando .. the average play session is 22 minutes"

There some really REALLY good graphic adventure games for iOS, like the tell tale games for instance. The walking dead series is one of the best iOS games I've ever played.

  I've heard about that, and I've played one Sam & Max game by Telltale :) . I don't have and don't plan on owning any Apple devices - not useful and too expensive in my country, the local ecosystem uses Android, so I hope they release more games for Android :) I thought they hadn't released, any but apparently they just did !!! Should show them some support by buying it :) www.slimgamer.com/16504/telltales-the-walking-dead-season-one-finally-comes-to-android/ should I watch the TV series before? Thank you for pointing me to that game :)

    I'd show support by buying it if it ran on something other than an Amazon Kindle Fire DX. :-( Rumor has it that one can side-load it, but I'm not going to hassle with that only to find out it has issues on a Galaxy Note 3.

    The Telltale Walking Dead game is actually based on the comic book universe, which is distinct from the TV show. Also, the game features a completely separate story, with only a few character references for fans to catch. So no, you don't need to watch the show or read the comic to enjoy the game, but as with all license properties it never hurts.

I just played the first episode of The Walking Dead on my iPad. Please, give it a try... It's mind blowingly good.
