If the final product is like what I played today, it's a really, really nice table accessory for arcade games on the iPad.

I am a sucker for any and all rogue-like games. I will admit though, I would like a nicely skinned version of Nethack on the iOS.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

Is there an app or website that tracks the prices of apps? Can I register somewhere and be notified if certain apps go on sale?

I also recommend Appshopper. The site works well and integrates well with the Appshopper app.

I also use Appshopper but frequently notice it's not always timely or comprehensive.

Thanks! I also got the other two they were offering at the time, Jungle Crash and Lawn Dash or whatever. The user ratings were not as high for those, but what the heck for free.

Kid just started playing this one and it is very Layton-like. Great deal, thanks.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

So I have had around $100 in iTunes credit for a while now and have held off on spending any of it for a while now. Well, last night I decided to buy a few of the higher priced games just for the heck of it. I grabbed Infinity Blade, and that has obviously blown me away. As great as that is, I also grabbed something even more interesting to me. Have any of you guys checked out Papa Sangre?

It really is an incredible experience, something a lot different than what you're used to. I highly, highly recommend it, even at the current $4.99 sale price. I consider it a must play without a doubt.

Interesting concept, but really doesn't look like much fun to play for more than a few minutes.

Diner Dash is very fun. A lot like Alice Greenfingers, which I played on PC. Some of the screens between restaurants are pretty balky, though--not responsive at all.

I went ahead and bought it and I love it. I haven't played that Pizza Boy game, but out of every other platformer I've played this one by far has the best controls of them all.

Any one try Devil May Cry 4 yet? It's at an introductory price of $1.99. Looks cool, but was waiting for a review.
