Best free iPad games

We're continuing our trip down the bargain aisle to find the very best free iOS games for the iPad. We've already nailed down our current?top free iPhone apps?and favorite free iPhone games. You'll find the whole gamut of genres here, including the best free strategy games, free shooter games, free sports games, free casual games, free physics games, free action games, free role-playing games, free racing games, free word games, and free simulation games for the iPad! You can expect this feature to be updated regularly as new games come out of the woodwork and we expand our coverage of categories. We'll also be drilling down into individual categories in future stand-alone spotlights, so be sure to stick around for that. Although all of the games here are free, most of them are built on in-app purchases. You can absolutely play them for free, but you may get annoyed by "freemium" up-sells. Others are "lite" versions with limited content, and while they're also completely free, you'll be limited in what you can do. Still, they're a great way to test the waters and have some fun before deciding to buy and unlock full versions. Without further ado, here are our favorite free games for iPad.
