Awesome! Finally the RPG ID cell phone games come to a GOOD platform. I was using windows mobile when those came out originally.

And, by the way, these are really tiny RPG like games. Very well suited to the iphone.

Am I the only one here who doesn't like the idea of gaming on these small gadgets (Iphone, Ipod touch, PSP, etc). I just feel like I can't appreciate a good game with such a small screen and quirky controls. I played Doom on my brother's Iphone and it was pretty bad.

I have to admit I did enjoy playing FF7 on PSP, but it wasn't nearly as good as when I played it on PS1. The only advantage was that I could play wherever and whenever, but really, I'd rather have one great gaming session when I come back from work every day instead of multiple short ones in the bus, in the car, during your break, etc. With a mini screen too, and no couch.

I loved Orcs and Elves, even on my crappy phone. However, what I really want is a randomly generated dungeon crawler that plays just like these games, but without being so linear.

Basically I want a DoomRPG interface on Nethack.

The graphics are a zillion times better than the old mobile version I played (which, incidentally, was fucking IMPOSSIBLE to complete on hard mode)
