Here’s an overview of what iOS games Apple announced:
* Ghostbusters Paranormal Blast, $0.99

Answer the calls and bust your way through 20+ missions to achieve ultimate godly status!

Description: The future of the world is at stake! Professor Blockowski and his block army are on a campaign to make the world square. Your mission will require quick reflexes and fast thinking to foil Professor Blockowski’s evil schemes and keep the world safe and round.
Draw Breaker takes the classic brick breaker genre, but adds a TWIST — you control the ball by DRAWING PLATFORMS. You have complete freedom to aim your shots by drawing platforms at any angle. Create shots that are impossible in other breakout style games. This was how breakout was meant to be played on a touch screen device.
