I think the 8-Bitty is good to go later this year. It's just an iCade shrunken down. Even with iMame on my iPad, I still can't justify an iCade. $25 however, seems *slightly* more reasonable
San Juan just came out on iOS. I've never played it, but I remember hearing on GeekNights that it does not hold a candle to Puerto Rico, in that there is an obvious single optimal strategy. I'm half remembering here. Somebody clarify and refresh me.

By the way, while I was sitting awake all night I started pwning the computer at Ticket to Ride, so I randomly invited a bunch of people to a game. You can totally ignore that or abandon or whatever, but I do wanna play some games against real people, so let me know. I'm cyclpsrock on Game Center.
RosakaM. I don't have Ticket to Ride on iPad, however I recently got Neuroshima Hex and have been trying to figure out that game. I have the basics, but I just need to memorize what all the symbols on the hexes mean.

You can look up the rules and tile special abilities during a game.
Yeah, I know this. I'm just annoyed because I want to know how to play already so I can try to beat the stupid computer.
Haha, same here, had that game on and off my iPad for ages, never did work out how to play it. Must just SIT DOWN and learn. Must stop playing Triple Town and Drop7.
So I got Organ Trail on iOS. It's ok. I never played Oregon Trail, so I don't have the nostalgia that other's have. Also the aiming/shooting mechanic is horrible. I can barely kill any zombies.
I'll give it another go, but if I can't get the shooting down, it's a waste of $3.

Really? Zombies are trivial to dispatch. I wade into suicide missions with no fear of injury. ;^)
So Containment: The Zombie Puzzler is $2 on iOS. I bought the Steam key for maybe $3 at PAX.
It's a fun silly puzzle game, where you surround zombies on an overhead grid with matching colors of people. Blue = cops, pink = scientist, orange = punks, green = army. Once you surround a zombie/zombie pack on all orthogonal sides, they destroy the zombies.
You can also earn bonus items from crates that can destroy parts of the puzzle. You get bonuses with cascades and what not. You can pretty much move any of your characters for free, but if you don't destroy the zombies in a certain amount of moves, they will attack and infect the adjacent characters and turning them into zombies.
It's overall not a bad game. I normally don't play many zombie games, but it's fun. I enjoy it more than Organ Trail.
So if anyone wants a Steam Key, perhaps we can haggle.
Hax: make your phone lag and then play the hexagon.
Hah. Based on the leaderboards I don't think anyone's really doing that yet at least. The developer still owns the top of the board with like 200 seconds.
I cracked 60 second and felt like a god, but one friend on my list got 75 so I am humbled.
I got past the first level in Hard mode. I feel accomplished at 11 seconds. :P
I love it that the game starts out with Hard mode. Also that the time from "Game Over" to "Begin" is literally less than a second. Very few games get this sort of detail right. My mission now is to crush Matt.

I have a PAX 12 medal to prove it.
Also Puzzle Juice is fun, even though it can crash every now and then.
Pretty much any of the PAX 10 look cool. I look forward to getting Offspring Fling on Steam. It's so CUTE!

Also my left thumb is a dick!
Also, this game would be great as an Omegathon event.
