Golem Arcana looks really nice and seems quite interesting but i lost interest in the Watch it Played video after what seemed like an age of Rodney trying to explain the app and stylus.

Maybe I’ll go back and watch a run through, but like you say if support for the app is dropped in 2 years time (entirely possible these days) you’re reduced to going through the manual once again. If you’re unlucky enough to own X-Com then the game is reduced to an unplayable box of cardboard and plastic.

Of course I hope I’m wrong but i will reserve my judgement until I’ve had the opportunity to try.
