Good list and I appreciate how it focuses on actual games rather than the fully disguised IAP stealth bombers.

The quality of some of these free games is pretty amazing. I can't emphasise enough how great Bardbarian is. I've also tried out that boss battler game and had alot of fun with it.

I heard they went free cause they gave up on premium despite the good reviews. Kind of a shame really.

Seems like a bit of a trend lately for devs to go down the free route after initally launching as premium. Wonder if that reflects more on the quality of the game or something inherent in the pricing structure of games on the App Store?

That sucks. Unfortunately the big guys that have the budget have taken over the app store with their "free" games. Has created a user base that is inclined to want something for initially nothing. Maybe that is the key. If these devs were able to put out a free version that gets a player to a point where they initiate a review and small charge to get the full version, they might be able to continue offering premium and far superior games

A few games have started doing that. A recent one was Wind Up Knight 2. I think that playing a level for free (effectively a demo) and then unlocking the game is cool. But does that not mean it should fall into another category. Somewhere between free and paid. As it is really not free.

Wacky Pirate is a good game that's completely free.

I'll have to check that one out! Thanks for the tip!
