Akalabeth for iPhone

This is an “exact” re-creation of Akalabeth for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch, which even goes so far (as can be seen in the screenshot) as to re-create the Apple II interface (or, at least, the parts of it necessary to play the game). Graphics and sound are the same as were in the original game.

This port boasts a few “helper” features, however, some of which were apparently designed with input from Richard Garriott himself. These include an autosave option (which also continues the game from where you left it, if you have to quit the app for any reason), an option to start near castle, an in-game minimap, and the ability to carry way more food.

It’s available for $1.99 USD on the Apple App Store.
