But what about full games that don't cost anything to play? Let's take a look at the 25 Best Free iOS Games available in the App Store. If there's one thing people love, it's the discounted price of "free."

    Airport Scanner

    Kedlin Company, LLC

    My boss must hate me. He told me to download this game and try it out. "A game where you scan things at an airport? Why would I want to play that?" "Because I'll fire you if you don't." Since he asked nicely, I decided to try it out. It's a ridiculous game, but it's actually a lot of fun. Scan luggage and point out the illegal items you see. Find one and watch airport security toss the perp out. I really like this dumb, free game. Looks like your practical joke backfired, Mr. Boss Man!
