To transfer your games to a new iPhone, ensure both devices are using the same Apple ID. On your old phone, back up your data via iCloud or iTunes. Then, set up your new iPhone by restoring from that backup. Download the games from the App Store; your progress should sync if the games support iCloud saves. For certain games, you might need to log in within the app to retrieve your progress.
