Did anyone else get to see this Demo: http://www.g4tv.com/videos/48570/settlers-of-catan-on-microsoft-surface/

**The possibilities got me excited. the 10k price tag for that particular surface unit...not so much.

Hi BMG, welcome. Yeah that one made the rounds a while back. All of us were drooling over the table so they didn't let us near it again. :(

Hello all,

I just got Magic the Gathering 2013 for the iPad and it's pretty cool.

However, I can't figure out how to activate special abilities for the cards.

Can anyone help???

I've been finally playing Summoner Wars. Seeing if it's worth buying the factions.

How is it? It's on my list to pick up as well. I have a friend that talks up the boardgame, so I've been intrigued, but not committed.

What's the word, zuk?

I'm in love with Summoner Wars. A friend came over with the Master Set a few weeks ago and got me to play. Been eagerly awaiting the iOS release ever since.

The app could use a lot of polish. Minor quirks that bother me with the interface and how you interact with the app. (No undo button?!?!?). I'm willing to deal with all of this stuff to play the game though. Did 4 matches versus the AI with the default races, managed to win the 3rd one, so I'm starting to get a handle on the strategy. I think I will buy the race pack tonight and try to get some real matches going.

Pocket Heroes!

Turn based. For a party via game center! Kill monsters. Take stuff. Message and chat system for roleplaying or trash talking!

Play with me! I want to try this, but it doesn't support single player.
