If you're a normal non-stop person you never have enough time in the day to sit down and grab a good gaming session. When you are on the go it's even harder because there are some excellent time consuming mobile games out that are as good as any console game, and some have even gone on to be a PC or console game. I found some simple level up games in an early arcade simplicity, yet beautifully designed with an excellent UI. One game even suggests you wear your headphones so you can have surround sound, similar to sounds of BASTION, which is also on iPhone, iPad and originated as a PC indie game.
This list of mobile iPhone games is nothing like the adventures of Bastion, but you can really enjoy the fun, intrigue, thrill and still have a mind enthralling game in short bursts with a challenge,

...and then it rained is a minimalist arcade game as well as an acoustic and visual experience.
Set in an abstract world, you have to catch colored and different sounding rain drops by dragging and reordering matching towers, resulting in a rhythmic and nearly meditative world of sounds and colors.
The gameplay is optimized for mobile devices: It's simple at the beginning with intuitive one-finger-controls, but later levels require fast thinking and good reaction times.
Different game modes let you decide whether you want the game to be a relaxing, Zenlike experience or a swift and difficult challenge.
