iKingsCup is a popular social gathering game brought to users of iPhones or iPod Touches. Cards are spread out around a center cup and players take turns pulling a card from the circle. Each card is associated with a fun (or sometimes not so fun) rule to complete. The player who draws the fourth King is supposed to drink the Kings Cup, no matter how delightful or disgusting it may be. It is a popular game in the college community and having it on a mobile device brings the convenience of playing virtually anywhere.
The Lite version of iKingsCup allows for all features of the Full version except:
1. The Lite version allows for an unlimited amount of games to be played, but only allows for 10 cards to be drawn each game.
2. Suggestions/Hints are not available in iKingsCup Lite.
Everything else is fair game. This includes, customization of table background, custom rules saved to your device, 3 built in rule sets, the use of up to 8 player names, and the ability to return to the saved game state if a phone call is received or players wish continue later.
iKingsCup has smooth transitions and great playability. It is also the first game of Kings Cup on the iPhone that allows for complete customization of game rules. Many people who play this game in real life often argue about what the "hometown" rules are. iKingsCup allows the users to personally set each rule either from an existing set of built in rules, or new rules can be typed in. Whats even better is that the iPhone or iPod saves the last custom rule set on the device, so that owners of this game must only set their custom rules once if they wish.
Speaking of saving things, iKingsCup saves the current game state after each card is drawn, or after the circle is rotated. If a phone call is received while playing, or if players wish to put a game on hold, the game will return to the latest game state when re-opened.
iKingsCup is great for making social situations easy and enjoyable. The game allows for customization on all levels, including inserting up to 8 player names. The game will make sure you never need to ask whose turn it is again. Players may even customize what the table looks like in the background. So grab a drink, join a circle of friends (or strangers), and pray you dont pull the fourth King!
