Ever tried to browse the AppStore looking for board games? Did it leave you feeling frustrated? Questioned the validity of reviewer comments? Well, here's the GeekList for you. It's a collection of board games that have been ported to iOS, excluding knock-offs and clones.


There are five criteria I'm using for this list:

1 Games must be currently available in the U.S. App Store.

2 They must be board or card games (i.e., no CCGs, RPGs, deck shufflers, etc)

3 Games must be officially licensed versions of the physical games. Clones and knock-offs need not apply.

4 No public domain games. I'd like the list to be comprehensive, but there is no way I could cover every chess or mahjong app out there.

5 I must know about the game If I missed one - leave a comment, or drop me a GeekMail.




Some notes on the list

iPhone and iPod Touch will be used interchangeably

IAP = In-App Purchase

I'll use U.S. Dollars, and the U.S. date format throughout. Apologies to international geeks. I do promise not to use the imperial measurement system. Ever.

I've added each of these apps to an appshopper account that you can follow here: http://appshopper.com/user/Polychrotid/wishlist . Feel free to subscribe, but if you do, please don't scoop me by posting price drops as hot deals as soon as they're out arrrh


Please leave comments or questions. I'm especially keen on insight into online multiplayer, as I simply haven't been able to afford try all these games.

I'll try to post price changes and updates as comments (feel free to do the same), so if you subscribe, you should see those as they come.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For in-depth coverage of iOS board games, be sure to check out the iOS Board Games Blog here: http://boardgamegeek.com/blog/164/ios-board-games It's a great resource from thequietpunk and blindspot. Thanks for the great work, guys!

Here are a few other related GeekLists.

Comprehensive iPhone app list

iPad games

iOS Game Reviews

Sage Board Games for iOS

And finally, check out The iOS Board Game Community Guild . It facilitates player matching for online play, and has just hosted the first iOS Carcassonne tournament. Find me there for online play

Cheers

The iPhone version just went down to $0.99 in the U.S. app store. I'm holding out for a price drop on the universal version.

Edit: And there it is! Down to $2.99 for the universal version!

There is apparently a FREE independence day themed version out, as described in this thread.

This edition has Indepndance Day cast members, I'm not sure what else is different but at a price of free, you might as well give it a go.

Any idea whether there will be a price increase at that time? We've seen it happen before with major updates. I'm looking at you, Carcassonne.

Dunno. I remember reading something about the planned update on their website but I don't think they'd charge extra. MP would probably get it into the top 100 again (where it belongs) and I think that's what they're aiming for.

I just bought this for my iPad and have 2 questions I was hoping someone could answer for me.

Is there a way to change your default color? Confusing playing as blue when blue is my normal nemesis!

Also, what exactly does LOCAL JOIN mean? Does this refer to a multiplayer local game where each player has his/her own iPad, or what?

It appears that the current version (1.3) is broken and awaiting an update.

As of today the App is working fine on my iPad2. Not a lot to it but still fun for my two kids (6 & 7).

I think it was 1.3.0 that was broken, according to the developers themselves. Thanks for the update.

No AI, only two players, intro not in English, cumbersome implementation of board game rules,and at least one bug where I couldn't place my metropolis. Ugh. Waste of 6 dollars. If all was fixed, maybe worth 2 dollars.

Agreed. I was super impressed after doing the tutorial, but haven't had a multiplayer game yet. I'll keep this one stashed away pending an(other) update.

Done and done...

When I try to sort your wish list by rating and appshopper said you hadn't enabled sharing.


I can't figure this out. I have the "Share this wishlist" box checked. Any ideas?

Bet? That's what they said about user blocking.

Actually, I'd be curious what your view is. Why the venom?
