iPhone Game: Sword & Poker

Hey dude. Remember that game called PuzzleQuest: Challenge of the Warlords? You know, that one that seamlessly mixed RPG elements with Bejeweled-style gameplay, and it was frighteningly addictive? Well, I've found a ridiculously fun substitute, and I call it Sword & Poker. The developers call it that, too.

The game is a unique take on poker that also features RPG elements. You are given a tile of nine cards (in a 3x3 pattern), with four cards in your hand. You then can use two of those cards on either side of the 3x3 pattern to create pairs, straights, flushes, etc. It sounds a little confusing written down, but after about 30 seconds with the game you'll figure it out. Your opponent shares turns with you, and the higher hand you have, the higher damage you give to the enemy. You can also buy better weapons which allow you to cause more damage, as well as use spells which can do things like make your opponent skip a turn.

Truth be told, I haven't paid for an iPhone game in many months, but after a few minutes with the lite version of this game I bought the full version for $4 without hesitation. The lite version is really robust, so I would try it out first before buying it to make sure it's what you're looking for. Regardless, this game is the new awesome. Check it out.
