Gaming on the iPad’s 9.7-inches display is an awesome experience all together! With the unique touch experience and great titles, we can easily say that iPhone/iPad/iPod touches have blown other portable gaming platforms like the PSP and Nintendo to bits. Here’s a list of board games which we believe are a must-have for every iPad owner.
Monopoly – If you’re a frequent board gamer, then you for sure know about Monopoly. The game mimics the real thing beautifully on the iPad – thanks to iPad’s awesome display. The author of the game is Electronic Arts, that’s a really good hint to sum up how the game might be. Just brilliant and very entertaining! For a price of $2.99 it’s definitely worth it!

Checkers – This is probably the most simplest and to-the-point game on the iPad. It is really quick and addictive, up to 2 players can indulge in the game or you can play against the computer. The board itself looks close to the real life one due to its wooden texture.
