Disney has updated Where’s My Holiday? to include 12 new levels in honor of Valentine’s Day. But before you go seeking it out on the App Store, be warned that the game’s name has been changed to Where’s My Valentine? That’s kind of a deep question for an app to be asking, but we get it.

When I was younger, a new Disney movie meant two dependable things -- a magical (if altogether too expensive) time at the theaters, and a surprisingly robust videogame. It was the company’s Renaissance, and fairytale mega-hits like Aladdin and Lion King spawned clever, well-received playable titles that were often just as absorbing. But rebirth doesn’t last forever.

In November of last year, we reported on what was then an “upcoming” animated web series to be based on Disney’s mega-popular physics puzzler Where’s My Water? Today - almost exactly a year later - it seems the mouse house is willing to pull the curtain back on the first webisode of Where’s My Water? Presents: Swampy’s Underground Adventure. I know what you’re thinking...isn’t a year like, forever in internet time? Don’t we drive flying cars and download games to our brains now and stuff?

It was just last October when we proposed that Disney could become a huge household name in videogames. Flash forward half a year to this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo, and the call couldn’t have been more correct.

We’re at a point where it’s almost harder to find stores that don’t carry Angry Birds merchandise than the ones that do. Popcap just announced last month that their own Plants vs. Zombies plushes, figures, and t-shirts would be invading stores everywhere this year. Next up to bat in the war for casual gaming merchandise supremacy is Disney’s Where’s My Water?, slipping into mass retailers nationwide this June.

Of all of the lists we’ve had to write this year, none have proven as difficult to compile as this. Not because the iPhone has been lacking in great games – quite the contrary, in fact. There have been so many great games that it’s been practically impossible to narrow it down to just five.

Disney's Where's My Water? was a surprising charmer when it came out earlier this year. Now, the game's getting even better, thanks to its new update, titled "Boiling Point." This addition includes new levels, new collectibles, and new gameplay mechanics.

Where’s My Water? is getting its own web series. Rumors continue to swirl about feature films based on FarmVille and Angry Birds. Popular mobile and social games are now becoming popular brands, and along with that comes the slew of media tie-ins. Of course, some games are better suited to the film and television treatment than others. We’re still not quite sure what a FarmVille movie will actually look like. But there are plenty of other options and we’ve rounded up our favorites here.

A few weeks ago, we posted up a behind the scenes video about Disney’s mega-popular iOS game Where’s My Water?. In it, Senior Game Designer Time Fitzrandolph said they were “trying to come up with new characters and new worlds that are worthy of Disney, but start as a game first.” Sounds like someone at Disney animation was on board with his sentiments, as the company has announced that Swampy will be starring in his own series of web animations in 2012.

Sometimes when you absolutely love a game, you can’t wait to learn more about it. If that’s how you feel about Where’s My Water?, you’re in luck – Disney Mobile has released a neat little behind the scenes video that shows some of the development team talking about the design of and hopes for everyone’s favourite clean freak alligator.
