Great games on iPhone Duo.
Twenty games that make the most of the first foldable iPhone, picked by the App Store Editors and gathered here with screenshots and details.
“The multiple displays on iPhone Duo open up exciting new possibilities for games. We’re loving playing these standouts on the first foldable iPhone.”
Some of these games simply look better with more room to breathe. Others go further and turn the hinge itself into a controller: a ramp for a rolling marble, the lid of a toaster, a goal standing up in front of you.
Here are all twenty picks, with screenshots, the details that matter and a link to each one on the App Store.

The list
All 20 picks.
The benchmark for arcade racing on iPhone: licensed hypercars, nitro-fuelled drifts and barrel rolls off ramps. It looks spectacular stretched across the larger display.
An Apple Arcade favourite where you live a gloriously ordinary sasquatch life: raiding picnic baskets, golfing, fishing and racing go-karts. A huge, cosy world that rewards poking around.
Bubble-popping puzzles starring the flock at its most adorable. Levels are short enough for a coffee break, and the bright art really pops on a bigger screen.
Restore vintage natural-history illustrations piece by piece, or reassemble the text about each animal instead. Calm, beautiful and quietly educational.
Climb an endless, spinning tower on your own or in chaotic co-op. Every run is different, and it’s even better when everyone huddles around one screen.
Green felt, cream rails, a little red flag and, of course, a windmill. Classic miniature golf, made with real care.
On iPhone Duo. Unfold it and the whole hole fills the big screen.
A game about folding, on a phone that folds. Learn origami one step at a time across 48 models, from cats and foxes to a samurai helmet, then paint on the finishing touches.
The naval grid game with the feel of a classic tabletop toy. Hide five ships, call your shots and watch the pegs drop, pass-and-play on one phone or online with a friend.
On iPhone Duo. The target grid sits on one half of the fold, your fleet and controls on the other.
An all-access pass to the golden age of arcades. Asteroids, Pac-Man, Galaga, Frogger, Bubble Bobble and more, gathered in one neon-lit hall.
An original word game played on a hexagon grid. Trace words through neighbouring tiles, in frantic 30-second rounds or relaxed, untimed play, in twelve languages.
A hand-painted sci-fi adventure about a young girl and her loyal animal companion. Solve puzzles, slip past machines and take in landscapes that deserve every pixel you can give them.
The world’s favourite pool game. Challenge friends or players anywhere in quick one-on-one matches and tournaments.
The classic game of hidden fleets and careful deduction, set on a living 3D ocean, with a Classic mode that swaps in the plastic board from the original box, pegs and all.
On iPhone Duo. Tabletop mode puts your fleet on the lower screen, with the enemy’s waters standing up in front of you.
A marble maze where the hinge is a second control. Tilt to roll, fold to play. Its developer calls it the first must-have game for iPhone Duo, and it’s hard to argue.
On iPhone Duo. The two screens are two halves of one board.
From the maker of Art of Fauna: piece together vintage botanical art and learn the story behind every plant you restore. The first ten puzzles are free.
Make a grilled cheese from scratch, then toast it in real time. Open the lid too early and the cheese hasn’t melted; leave it too long and it burns.
On iPhone Duo. The phone itself becomes the toaster: fold it shut to close the lid.
Dodge, jump and somersault through a storm of razor-sharp sawblades. A frantic high-score chaser where one more go is never just one more go.
Anti-gravity racing at impossible speeds across cities, volcanoes and alien worlds, with explosive combat and full Grand Prix seasons.
A psychedelic vector-arcade shooter. Rotate the vortex to line up enemies and survive faster and faster waves. Headphones strongly recommended.
One ball, one goal, one more shot. Swipe to strike, then hit it hard, place it in the corner or bend it past the keeper.
On iPhone Duo. Fold the phone and the fold becomes part of the game.
