iPod Games: Naval Battle, Chess and Backgammon

Apple released two new games on the iTunes Store from Gameloft S.A.


Chess and Backgammon

Two of the oldest and most popular board games of all time just went digital. Jam-packed with suspense, chess and backgammon put your powers of strategy and concentration to the test as you try to anticipate your opponent's next move.



Naval Battle

Take control of your fleet and fight in extraordinary battles from the frigid Antarctica to the Pacific Rim.

Naval Battles looks suspiciously like Battleships to me. Looks like it would fill a few minutes on a boring bus-ride quite nicely though!

I agree, it does look very similar to Battleship- but Naval Battles looks like a pretty cool game. :)

Too bad Bobby Fischer didn't live to see this great moment. Although I don't remember reading that he played iPod games.

Now that we've got awesome games like Sonic and Peggle, board games like this are a big yawn.

I'll definitely be getting Chess. Solitaire and Sudoku are currently the only games that I keep playing. The other games were fun for a bit, but not for repeat playing.

Whoa there friend, don't pop a vein! Don't want slow software development to put you under prematurely. I may not be as passionate as you, but do agree that the time is now for a slate of iPhone/Touch games. Maybe the SDK will usher this along; developing games like chess and backgammon seems pretty straightforward, not to mention other titles like mah jong, sudoku, and a whole host of card games.
