bring Amnesia to the Iphone!!!

Frictional Games, congratulations for what I consider to be a milestone in horror games, and in interactive entertainment in general. This is the most immersive gaming experience in recent years for me.


I think that if you could overcome the technical hurdles (which the epic citadel demo from epic games showed that its doable), even though the reliance on physics is a tough nut to crack, this would be a perfect fit for the iphone/ipod touch (especially the newer devices)! The object manipulation and general "physical" interaction with the world could be a big hit on the touch screen, and the generally common use of headphones with these devices would be a perfect fit for the game. Also, in terms of controls, the best fps games on the appstore (like Nova from Gameloft) show that its perfectly doable, plus you dont have to worry about shooting controls/mechanics.

The appstore, although its gaining ground, it still is in its infancy as far as quality titles go, so your game should stand head and shoulders above almost anything else there. Plus, you would probably gain tons of popularity, and maybe even the potential piracy problem wouldnt be so big, because of the nature of the average iphone consumer (not nearly as tech savvy as the average pc gamer, which could well mean less piracy).

I'm hoping that, as a business venture, you'll find the iphone market a profitable one - its a HUGE market, and you really should do something about it!
