What a week it has been for Android phone fans thanks to the introduction of the new HTC One M9, Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge. Of course, Apple fans had plenty to enjoy this week as well thanks to our lists of paid iPhone and iPad apps that have gone on sale for free. Yesterday’s post was great, and there are still a few freebies to be had if you hurry. Today, of course, we have a great new list for you to enjoy.

DON’T MISS: This impossibly thin iPhone 6 case is just $15 on Amazon

These are paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now — obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get,” it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

Now with Endless Arena mode – Challenge your friends on the Leaderboards!

EPOCH has trekked across a war-ravaged country to find the one person he was programmed to protect: the Princess, Amelia. Now he must follow a final, desperate lead to reach her, with the two warring robot armies of Omegatroniks and Alphetekk standing in his way. But what surprises await EPOCH when the Princess is finally located? And what will she make of the world she wakes up to?
