Every week, Gamasutra rounds up the top-grossing iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad applications, as current that day in the iTunes App Store. This week's U.S. revenue charts see Kingdoms of Camelot and Minecraft: Pocket Edition earning top iPhone sales, while Poker by Zynga and Slotomania HD remain big sellers on the iPad. These charts allow end users to see who is making the most money on the App Store that day. It differs significantly from the Top 10 Games chart, which is ranked by sales, and therefore is dominated by lower-priced titles that sell more copies. Data comes courtesy of Apple's public sales information. All titles in the App Store's "Games" category are considered in chart rankings. This week's top-grossing iPhone titles are: 1. Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North (Kabam, Free) 2. Poker by Zynga (Zynga, Free) 3. Slotomania (Playtika, Free) 4. DragonVale (Backflip Studios, Free) 5. Bejeweled Blitz (PopCap, Free) 6. Texas Poker (Kamagames, Free) 7. Minecraft: Pocket Edition (Mojang, $6.99) 8. Tap Paradise Cove (Pocket Gems, Free) 9. The Sims FreePlay (EA Games, Free) 10. Card Ace Casino (Self Aware Games, Free) Kabam's city-building sim Kingdoms of Camelot heads up the iPhone revenue charts for the second week in a row, leading over longtime App Store favorites Poker by Zynga and Slotomania. Last week's release of an Xbox 360 version of Minecraft spurs sales for Mojang's Minecraft: Pocket Edition, as Pocket Gems' Tap Paradise Cove takes eighth place following the launch of a content-expanding update. Here are this week’s top-grossing iPad applications: 1. Slotomania HD (Playtika, Free) 2. Poker by Zynga (Zynga, Free) 3. Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North (Kabam, Free) 4. DragonVale (Backflip Studios, Free) 5. The Sims: FreePlay (EA Games, Free) 6. Modern War (Funzio, Free) 7. Slotomania (Playtika, Free) 8. Mystery Manor: Hidden Adventure (Game Insight, Free) 9. Smurfs' Village (Capcom, Free) 10. Bejeweled Blitz (PopCap, Free) Playtika's Slotomania HD spends its third week atop the iPad's charts, fending off competition from Poker by Zynga, Kingdoms of Camelot, and DragonVale. A recent update puts EA's The Sims: FreePlay at fifth place, as Game Insight's hidden object game Mystery Manor: Hidden Adventure, Capcom's Smurfs' Village, and PopCap's Bejeweled Blitz close out today's results.
