Good strategy/simulation game for the iPad?

I want a strategy or simulation game for my iPad that I can play either for hours or just for a few minutes. Something similar to Farmville or Tiny Tower, but very entertaining. The graphics and overall design need to be good.

Here's a few:

What's a good forge game for the iPad?

I was wondering if there was a game for the iPad kind of like Gary's Mod or the forge on Halo Reach.

There isn't one, and there won't be one. Apple and Adobe could never get a flash player that worked. And now since Adobe has ceased all production on mobile flash, there won't ever be one.
Your best alternative is to explore the app store for browsers that support flash and see if one of them will do what you want.

Good training apps/ games for the iPhone?

What are you looking to be trained to do? Speak a foreign language? Run a marathon? Bake a cake?

Good apps and games for the disabled?

My brother in law was born premature and as a result has a number of neurological and muscular problems. He has been wheelchair bound since he was very young, and mentally he will likely not develop past about a third grade intellect. He is currently 30, and his parents have gone to great lengths to take care of him as best they can. I've known him for about four years now, and he's got the personality of a guy that you can't help but like
My in laws live on the other side of the US as my wife and I do, but we're going to be flying out to visit them in a few weeks. I'm always seeing young kids at airports and the supermarket playing games on their parents' smartphones and tablets, and that got me to thinking that an iPad might make a great belated 30th birthday present for my brother in law. It's got an easy to understand interface, a touchscreen that's large enough for him to effectively interact with, and it could provide him with much more intellectual stimulation than watching The Price Is Right.
Before giving it to him, I'd really like to load it up with games that he will be able to play. I've never owned an iPhone or an iPad, though, so the only ones I'm familiar with are the super popular (Angry Birds and Cut the Rope) and what few games I've played around with on my Android powered phone.
Can anyone make some suggestions for me about apps that I could get for him? The more kid friendly, the better. He does have limitations to motor control in his hands, so I think it'd be best if the app didn't require a high level of precision (for example, Slice It! probably wouldn't be too fun). I don't mind if it's not free- if I'm already spending a few hundred dollars on the hardware, $5 for software isn't a big deal
Thanks in advance!

Forgot to add this. You'll have to decide whether to get an iPad (new version, 3) or an iPad 2. Although a bit more costly, I would recommend the new iPad. It comes with a dictation app and when iOS 6 http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/ is released in the fall, it will have Siri. With Siri, he can speak sites to go to in Safari, the browser. There is a free dictation app, Dragon Dictation, for the iPad 2. The 16GB model with wifi (no 3/4G) should meet his needs, unless he wants movies installed (then get the 32GB model).
What are all the differences between the iPad 3rd Gen and the iPad 2? Is the iPad 2 worth the cost savings?

Any First Person Shooter Games For the iPad?

Looking for any 1st Person shooter games like Marine Sharpshooter for the iPad, can't seem to find them.

If you do a Google search, you'll find many pages devoted to discussion of these games... the App Store does not categorize them as such, but they are out there.

Does anybody know a good free .doc or .docx test editor for the iPad?

is there a good free text editor for the ipad 2?

The Technology Wiz wrote:
but still why not have full MS Office on the ipad?
Because Microsoft has not made Office for the iPad. And if they do, I can just about guarantee that it won't be free.
There are free text editors, but I know of nothing free that can edit Office documents. iOS can open .doc and .docx documents so you can view them, but to edit them you'll most probably need to buy an app. Creating such an app is a lot of work, so I don't see why spending $10 or so is a "ripoff".
Note that CloudOn works on the company's servers, unless I've completely misunderstood (it's like Google Docs) so you must have a network connection for it to work. If that's fine for you, then that's perhaps a good solution, at least until they start charging (which they'll either do or have advertising). If you want to be able to create and edit documents on the iPad itself, then you'll need to buy something, I think.
Regards.

Why don't we have Dominion for the iPad...Android users have a version!

Seriously this is one of the most popular card games/board games in existence right now.
We have how many **** card generators for this game??? Over a dozen...and no one has thought to make the actual game
for the iPad or iPhone. Even a knock off would be good.
You could easily charge 9.99 for a Dominion game app...possibly more.
If I had the skills to make it I would.
Stop screwing around with making random game generators for the game and make the GAME!
Android users have a very good knock off, its a crying shame that I have to ask to use my wife's
peice of crap $49.99 phone to play it, while she has my over priced iPhone.

This will be my last reply to you...this is a community...thus I'm speaking to it.
You seem to be the little kid in the corner, that no one cares for and you have pent up resentment.
Perhaps you should be more personable and talk to people rather than put out your judgemental comments were they are not welcome.

Is there a game controller/gamepad available for the iPad?

Is anybody aware of a gamepad for the iPad? I bought some of my favorite childhood games to pass some time on the ipad, but I gotta say the touch screen gaming experience is kinda lame. I keep touching the wrong "buttons" because my fingers can't feel the difference between them like a real gamepad/joystick. I found one company that makes a controller, but it works with only TWO games! Other people did jailbreak hacks with a wiimote. Does any company make a legitimate game controller for the iPad?

Good idea, but the iPad games are not able to change the touchscreen controls to the buttons of a USB gamepad, the games need to be compatible with it.
That's the part I wasn't aware of. Thanks for the good info.

I've seen those before (but I think another company invented them, not Logitech). I'm reluctant to buy one because it relies on suction cups. I bought something called the Joystick-It by ThinkGeek, and while the idea is novel, getting the suction cup to stay in one place on the gamescreen is 99% impossible. I've cleaned, polished, buffed the screen every way possible and no matter how smooth its surface may be, I can't keep that suction cup stationary.

Downloaded free game for my iPad 2; made several in-app purchases. The game no longer works, it's happen to all users (customers). Deleting and re-downloading refreshes the game to level 1. How can I get a refund?

You can contact iTunes and ASK for a refund. Then make make an exception to their all sale are final policy.
Refunds from the App Store or iTunes - Apple Club
In the future set the restrictions so that in-app purchases are prohibited and that a password is always required.

I just bought the new HDMI cord for the IPad, it works good but a small potion of the TOP and the BOTTOM is cut off. It doesn't seem to do it for movies. My monitor is a 23 IN' acer s series.

My monitor is a 23 IN' acer s series. I just installed the drivers for my monitor with no change. I think I have a CD somewhere for my monitor maybe it has some kind of program in there that can help me. I can post a picture if I need to. Thanks

No work around that I know of.

Like an idiot, i bought a game for an ipad and only have a macbook air. can i somehow get the game to play on my air? or have i just thrown $5.29 out of the window?!?

I recently bought a game for an "ipad", (thru itunes), when I only have a MacBook Air...I had seen where you could switch apps back and forth between devices, ad I thought I could do this. Is there a way to play the game on my Air laptop? Or did I just throw $5.29 out of the window? One more thing...it involved Facebook, and I don't belong...or want to belong!?
I want to play Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, etc. ON MY MACBOOK AIR!?!???

No way to play an iOS game on a Mac presently.
I suspect if you contacted Apple's Customer Support and explained the situation they would refund or credit your account.

I bought the Tiger woods 12 game for my ipad and also paid the 19.99 for the $2M. It has crashed my ipad a few times and when it restarted last time, it had no history of my progress or the $2M. How do I get my history back or my money back for the game and the in-game expenses?

The only one that can issue a PUK code is a carrier, which you've already made clear you don't have.
If itunes does not recognise your ipad that may be another issue. What version OS is on your computer and what steps did you follow to uninstall itunes and then reiinstall itunes on your computer?
And, do you at least see the sidebar on the left hand side of itunes?

Overall how good is Numbers for the IPAD?

Overall how good is Numbers for the IPAD?

Learning curve required but it works well. The user quide is very good, maybe look at that first..
Different options available on Numbers for iPad to what's available on Numbers for Mac.
Dragging around spreadsheet columns on an iPad is fun but probably overall not as intuitive as most apps until you get used to it.

Is magnets in an ipad cover, good for the ipad?

Just wondering if magnets in an ipad cover, good for the ipad. Some poeple say its fine and other say its gives problems with you ipad.
So what whitch one is it good or bad?

The Apple cover has magnets. If magnets caused problems, Apple wouldn't use them.
Magnets, if strong enough, can cause problems with hard drives like in a laptop, or like old floppy discs. However, the iPad uses a flash type hard drive not affected by magnets.
