After a few months of hard work, the initial version of Droid Tower is done!
I created the app because my family and I love the Dark Tower board game and our tower recently stopped working. We had issues with it before and I sent it to a company I found online to repair for around $60. Now faced with having to shell out more money for repair, I figured there had to be a better way. At the same time I had recently dabbled in Android development and had been wanting to do more and this seemed like a good opportunity. Thanks to the Well of Souls site for providing images, sound files, and source for a Java version that helped me with some of the probabilities.
The app allows your android smartphone or tablet to function as the tower did in the original board game. It provides support for up to 4 players and 3 levels of difficulty. At the current time, you will need the gameboard and player inventory cards to play in addition to the app, but I have posted printable versions of these for download here.
Check out the new app on the android market at http://market.android.com/details?id=com.mow.droidtower. Or search the android market for droidtower.
