• Cyclades for iPad
• Bang! for iPad
• Codito Drops Prices on Knizia Apps Ra and Medici
• Time's Up for iOS Rumor Confirmed
• Big Daddy's Creations Seeks Your Input on Caylus



• Cyclades for iPad - Mar 8
It was easy to miss last week in Eric Martin's BGG News post featuring the highly distracting dancing Dungeon Twister video, and miss it I did. The last link in that post contained a video that shows Editions du Matagot a leading game company in France (publisher of Khronos, Utopia, Giants) appears to be readying an iPad version of Cyclades. This video (courtesly cued to 2:11 for your busy schedule) shows people at the Cannes 2011 game festival demoing/playing it. This blogger has no idea on release date and can't seem to find anything, but clearly the game looks very far along. Perhaps soon? Exciting!

• BANG! [HD] the Official Video Game for iPad has been released. - Mar 10
Why do these games have such long titles? In a last Thursday surprise, Palzoun & SpinVector finally released the iPad version of Bang! which is officially called BANG! [HD] the Official Video Game. It's a beautiful looking game and no doubt more beautiful now on the iPad, but what a mouthful to say.



• Codito Goes Mad and Drops Prices on Ra and Medici! - Mar 14
They've lost their minds! Codito Development, makers of a great many board game apps near and dear to our hearts have dropped prices to new all time lows on the following Reiner Knizia masterpieces!

- Ra (universal) from $3.99 to $2.99 USD
- Medici HD (iPad) from $2.99 to $1.99 USD
- Medici (iPhone) from $1.99 to $0.99 USD



• R&R Games Confirms Time's Up for iOS on April 1, 2011 - Mar 14

Flexing my budding bloggerly skills, I followed up on a rumor that the modern classic party game, Time's Up!, was soon to get the iOS treatment. The folks at R&R Games confirmed that it was true! Yippee!

Tentatively, April 1st looks to be the release date for the app. I will have confirmation on that shortly. It’s quite cool and will include access to a special expansion set that is unlike anything else we have available for the game.



• Big Daddy's Creations Seeks Your Input On Caylus - Mar 14
Here's your chance to give direct input to Big Daddy's Creations as they work to develop the BGG darling of 2006, Caylus, into an iOS app of crowd-pleasing goodness. They say they have got a good handle on AI and online multiplayer, but want you to feel free to express your ideas and concepts to them. They will try to address all propositions. We certainly like to see this level of collaborative spirit when it comes to iOS Board Games!

More screen area, which is the bane of porting most visual media to digital!

iPhone is great, but playing Catan on it makes my eyes hurt. The iPad has a much larger screen, items can be spread out more effectively.

And it can still use iPhone apps which gives it more versatility.
