Battle for Wesnoth - now available for iPhone

Since it is a strategy game I didn't do a newsbit, but this is still of interest:
Battle of Wesnoth, the open source TBS game for Mac / PC / Linux, has been ported to the iPhone and is currently available on the App Store for $4.99. I wrote about it here.

Wesnoth Ported to the iPhone

Thursday, November 26 2009

Battle for Wesnoth has been ported to the iPhone and is now available from the iPhone app store. Go here to get it! It is $4.99 for purchase from the app store, with part of the proceeds going to the Wesnoth project. The source code is available here. Report problems here.

I'm still working through the tutorial, but so far it seems pretty good with the caveat of some interface quirks, but they are already coming with a patch soon.

Cool. Wesnoth is an excellent game. I'm looking forward to playing it again—not on the iPhone --when they get their 1.7-1.8 version finalized.

My main issue is that the interface seems optimized for a stylus device, like my Dell Axim x51v, instead of a finger-based device like the iPhone or Droid.
