Age of Booty, a critically appreciated Xbox Live Arcade game that failed to generate significant sales back in the fall of 2008 is making the move to iOS and Android. Original developer Certain Affinity announced that they are working along with Chaotic Moon to create a version of the game for tablets and mobile phones. This release will be a "freemium" version of the seafaring pirate strategy game, featuring a full single player campaign, as well as cross-platform multiplayer play. I was a fan of the original, because it was an RTS that didn't stray far from its board game roots. It offered action that isn't achievable on a tabletop, while also preserving the satisfaction of decision making in classic European board games. The game map is also layed out using our favorite shape, the hexagon! No release date has been given, but I can't wait to return to the high seas on my iPhone.
