Angry Birds HD and AirAttack HD claim second and third place, as Halfbrick's Fruit Ninja HD moves up from eighth place to claim fourth in today's chart results. Scrabble and Madden NFL 11 remain strong sellers for Electronic Arts, meanwhile, as Words With Friends and Real Solitaire for iPad return to the charts to push MumboJumbo's hidden object game Salem Witch Trials to ninth place.

Labyrinth 2 HD Lite 8. Flick Fishing HD Free 9. ADJewels HD Free 10.

Free trials for WordSearch Unlimited HD and Labyrinth 2 HD follow at sixth and seventh place, as Freeverse's Flick Fishing HD Free, Reanimation's ADJewels HD Free, and Gameloft's Brothers in Arms 2 close out today's chart results.
