King's Cup ($3) brings a version of the popular drinking game to the iPhone. Users must select a card from the virtual deck, which is then revealed indicating an action to be performed along with an animation demonstrating the required actions.

iLaugh ($2) puts a large database of jokes inside a users pocket.
