Healer: A Light in the Darkness 9+

I spent quite a bit of time on WoW and my favorite part of the game was healing through the instances, and the boss fights. To me, there's nothing more thrilling than juggling between different healing spells, each with its own timing, mana cost and amount healed, while prioritizing multiple party members, limited only by your reflex and your ability to keep track of all these factors in real time.

Healer finally brought the intensity and excitement of healing a boss fight in WoW to the iPad. I can't wait to see how the touch UI enhances the experience.

And you thought it couldn't be done. So did I, but the fact is this game delivers all the fun of topping off little green boxes without ever having to deal with actual people who complain when you let their box get empty. Controls are slick, art is polished, gameplay is easy to pick up but still provides a challenge. I can't find anything to complain about here. If you don't like healing you won't like this game, but if you do, I recommend giving it a try.

Touch Arcade must have never healed on WoW because their 3 1/2 stars doesn't make sense. If you've ever healed in WoW this is for you. The $5 price tag is a little steep and there could be a little more customization but I still give this 5 stars. Each boss plays different, you will die and have to rethink your spells and strategy for each fight. It's a niche game but if you happen to fall into the category who happens to heal in WoW you will love this
