In addition to the additional puzzle packs for Endless Crosswords and Nada Clue we have been busy working under the radar for the last year on another project. Now we can finally let you know what we've been up to: we've been helping Bioware/Mythic on the iPad version of Ultima Forever. It's been a fun project and we're really proud of how it's turning out.
December 2011
We're happy to announce the launch of two new games on the App Store. Nada Clue is a crosswords-style game, also known as a fit-word puzzle. It's crosswords without clues! Endless Crosswords is a crossword wrapped around a barrel, without left and right edges. It's a fun take on the traditional crossword game. Both games are available now for free (with in-app purchase for additional puzzle packs).

Following the launch of Lava Loops for iPad we are pleased to announce the release of Lava Loops for the iPhone. Described by one player as “seriously freaky and addictive”, Lava Loops for the iPhone has the same simple game mechanics and game modes found on the iPad, along with the option of larger tiles to accommodate the smaller screen on the iPhone, and the ability to shake the iPhone to get a completely new puzzle set. Lava Loops for iPhone is available now for US $0.99 on the App Store. In addition to the release of the iPhone version, Lava Loops for iPad has also received an update, bringing additional challenges and the new shake feature from the iPhone version.
