Oh crap I’m gonna lose so much time. I nearly bought an iPad just to run this. Now I can hold off and play it on the phone.

So excited.

Interesting. Macrumors should review this game when it’s launched on iPhone.

I bought it ages ago when it was launched for the iPad. I was looking for news about the iPhone version just yesterday, so this couldn’t have come at any better time.

Looking forward to it!
