Another roguelike, this one built specifically for the iPhone. I’ve not played it much, but it seems like it could be very decent if I can get the hang of the movement controls. At the moment I’m all over the shop. The principle seems decent – tap the square you want to move to – but somehow I keep mucking it up and running around like a loon. (There’s also a small d-pad in the bottom of the screen, but I’m having even less luck with that. Sometimes it moves me, most of the time it seems to do nothing. Perhaps I should check for instructions, eh?)

Cavern

An epic battle, possibly.

It also seems awfully easy to die, but I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Nothing wrong with a good bit of permadeath.

If you’ve not played any sort of roguelike before then the magnificent Sword of Fargoal is probably the easiest starting point, but this looks like it might be another worthwhile example of the genre. I’ll hopefully have better impressions after the weekend, if iNetHack doesn’t eat all my roguelike gaming time.
