Like Wasteland, maybe? The Bard's Tale is a great action/ rpg in the vein of Diablo (though better in my opinion, if only for the witty humorous and fantastic characters and dialogue). This features the remake and part I of the original (with part 2 and 3 to come) both great games from the legends behind the original Fallout, Wasteland games.
Did I mention it's funny? If you're a fan of rpgs (or have a sense of humor) you'll love the tongue-in-cheek jokes and references. The dialogue is especially hilarious between the main character (voiced by The Princess Bride's Cary Elwes) and the narrator (the classic narrator for countless films and games, Tony Jay).
It's not too big, around 1 Gb or so additional download, pretty minor compared to some of the large games in the app market (Gameloft games for example). But, come on, it's worth it to play a brilliant port of an excellent game on a phone or tablet.

I like this game, but I think it is too difficult to play without buying from the online store (especially when fighting bosses). It could also use some shortcuts for things like switching from range to melee weapon, or using Adderstones. Health bars above each mob would be nice too. Luck needs to be documented.

fantastic game
This app played like a full PlayStation or Xbox game. Very fun story and worth every penny. The best part was that there are no in-game purchases necessary to enjoy the game.

Great classic, all the ribald humor is still there, but with updated shiny new graphics. Some of the puns made me laugh out loud. Lots of fun for a tenth of the price of a movie! Read more

Great game
Fun for beginners or advanced. Takes a lot of memory, though, almost 2 gig. But once played, you can remove it. Kept me entertained for weeks.
