Hector: Badge of Carnage [App Store]
Pure Brilliance!
Adventure games of this style have been proved a good fit on the iPhone so far, with Gamebook Advenures and Broken Sword leading the way, however the team at Straanlooper have convinced me to free up almost 300mb worth of space to download Hector, what looks to be the funniest most interesting game on the platform!
