Ye Olde Inn

I will certainly be downloading this later. I've been hoping to find something like this.

Yes, I will be using a new technology that allows to quickly port games between WP, Android and iOS as well (both iPhone and iPad).
Other major improvements, so far, will be:
- New camera system, including zooming in/out
- New movement and dice system, to make the game way faster than now, so it would be appreciated not only by hardcore board gamers
- Persistent heroes, equipment, items and gold. That will mean you can keep your equipment and your heroes between different quests. Each quest will increase it's difficulty based on the level of your heroes. The loot will also be better. This way quests can be replayed more times to find better items or to have a new challenge.
- New heroes leveling system, with the possibility of customize how the stats are assigned.

Original quests and the over 50 quests created by the users will be compatible and playable with the new game. New quests will be added increasing the variety of the dungeons.
Other improvements:
- Prison rooms
- Dungeons to complete in a certain number of turns

This is what I thought about so far. Any suggestion is welcome.

Just out of curiosity what technology are you using here?
I have created apps with Phonegap before, it sounds a bit like that.

I dont have much experience with Phonegap, and personally hate javascript, but I dont think it's suitable to develop games.
There are plenty of frameworks to develop cross platform games, the best I know are Unity, Corona and in my case Cocos2d.
Unity is by far the best, but also quite expensive

Phonegap is really easy to use but I think entirely unsuitable for creating games.

Of the three you mention I have only heard of Unity. I'll take a look into Cocos2d sometime as it is open-source and that's the only real option for me at the moment. Thanks.
