    I don't see what's funny. I read your post, and I believe I've seen that site with an earlier date that they changed?

    If you follow my reasoning, it is very reasonable for me to think that the date there must've been set based on the prior submission date estimate, which was pushed a few days. So I figured that 4-5 day extra time must be added to the release date.

    What is really great is that it will be released on the same date, even though it was submitted a few days later. Really, this is the only iPhone game that I've been looking forward to in months. I think it has a ton of potential to be incredibly enjoyable and strategic.

    Still don't understand what's getting you so excited about my posts.

    I really hope TouchArcade does another post on the main site about the release of this game to remind people that it's coming!

    First class preview looks great! Can't wait to see the healer class preview. And also that big robot looks interesting.

    Yes, at launch you'll need to invite other players but we are working on the random player option and we'll release it soon.

    In the mean-time you can play a game with me, Pitta, and Narziss ;)

    Never mind. You obviously didn't understand what I posted earlier. That was from an email I received from Ayopa 1 or 2 days ago. Haha, it doesn't take much reasoning to figure that out.

    Anyway, the 12th definitely needs to hurry up a bit. This game is a ton of fun.

    I have been waiting for this one too, and I know it has been talked about somewhere but....I am a few years older than the "normal" gamer and my eyesight is not what it should be for the "smaller screen" on the iphone or my ipod....BUT....my ipad screen is just right....lol
    I am just wanting to verify that the game is ipad compatible as it will be downloaded on Thursday either way....just hoping I can see to play it when it gets here?

    BTW.....there is a "sign me up to play list" over in the iphone/mmo section at

    Every iOS game is iPad compatible.

    You'll definitely be able to play on your iPad, the added screen real estate is actually really nice!

    It's really good news that this is coming out soon. Is the release going to follow the pattern of being released in NZ first or everywhere at once?

    So I assume what will happen is when you start a new game that is when you create a character correct?

    I guess I can play a dungeon crawler for the next 24-48 hours to sharpen my skills and strategy but I'm not sure how much that will help me to "study" for this one.

    It looks like you must be "testing" a pre-release??????.....So....thumbs up?

    Yes we should be following the standard release schedule with first availability in NZ. And you're right about the characters. When you start a new adventure you'll pick a character class and then invite friends to join your party. From there you all take off together and start working through the story.

    Speaking of character classes, I've just posted the second Character Profile over on our website. Check out the link below for a look at the Lunar Priestess!

    Let me know what you think.

    This isn't Universal though, is it?
    If not, any plans?

    I won't bother with it if it isn't Universal and I can assure you I'm not alone.

    It won't be Universal at launch but we plan to add it as an update.

    I hate this 'timed publishing' thing.
    I would have preferred they released it worldwide...I have to wait till 2 am here to download it, for the utter joy of my wife.
    I do not know why this thing is adopted by the majority of publishers (not all tough), I can't see the benefit...the marketing is already done...it's only a 12 hours matter.
    I hate this in general, but soooo much for this game which I wanted to play YESTERDAY :)

    Can't wait!!!
