Kingdoms Upgrade Out

[Shannon Appelcline]

Folks,

Kingdoms 1.30 was released last night. It should now be available for your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad running iOS 5.0 or later. This is our Elo and Game Center release, mirroring what we put out in the recent Money, except without game-specific quests. (Those'll be in a future release.) Oh, and it has a few fixes for how the Game Center features work if you have a flaky net connection.

Here's the complete listing:

==
✓ New elo system lets you compare ranking with opponents.
✓ Game Center support for leaderboards now lets you compare your maximum elo ranking and your top scores with players across the world.
✓ Game Center support for general achievements (but not yet game-specific quests, which will appear in a future revision).

✓ You can now choose the "see completed board" option to get a look at the final board between rounds.
✓ The AIs now are a little smarter about where they place their castles.
✓ New games menu (marked with a "+") makes it easy to navigate among RPGnet games on your iPhone.

✓ iPad Only: The rules are easier to read.

The ability to see a board better at the end of our round was our most requested feature in recent months, so be sure to select the "see completed board" option if you were one of the folks who wanted that.

Modern Art: The Card Game is also up for an elo/GC upgrade; it'll probably be out next week. After that we're going to take a bit of a break from the upgrades, but we'll be returning to the rest of the games in (probably) August. Web of Power Card Game will be next on my list then.
