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 Haypi Dragon earning top iPhone sales, while Poker by Zynga and Bejeweled Blitz emerge as 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. DragonVale (Backflip Studios, Free) 3. Poker by Zynga (Zynga, Free) 4. Slotomania (Playtika, Free) 5. Bejeweled Blitz (PopCap, Free) 6. Minecraft: Pocket Edition (Mojang, $6.99) 7. Modern War (Funzio, Free) 8. Haypi Dragon (Haypi, Free) 9. Angry Birds Space (Rovio, Free) 10. Tap Paradise Cove (Pocket Gems, Free) A recent content-expanding update puts Kabam's social city-building sim Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North at the top of this week's iPhone revenue rankings, pushing last week's chart winner DragonVale to second place. Haypi's dragon-training title Haypi Dragon enters the top ten at eighth place, meanwhile, overtaking Rovio's Angry Birds Space and Pocket Gems' island colony sim Tap Paradise Cove. Here are this week’s top-grossing iPad applications: 1. DragonVale (Backflip Studios, Free) 2. Poker by Zynga (Zynga, Free) 3. Slotomania HD (Playtika, Free) 4. Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North (Kabam, Free) 5. Modern War (Funzio, Free) 6. Mystery Manor: Hidden Adventure (Game Insight, Free) 7. Slotomania (Playtika, Free) 8. Bejeweled Blitz (PopCap, Free) 9. Smurfs' Village (Capcom, Free) 10. The Sims: FreePlay (EA Games, Free) DragonVale leads as the iPad's highest-grossing app for the second week in a row, fending off competition from longtime App Store favorites Poker by Zynga and Slotomania HD. Game Insight's Mystery Manor: Hidden Adventure continues to rank as a popular pick at sixth place, as PopCap's Bejeweled Blitz returns to the charts after a brief absence at eighth.
