If, like me, youre someone whos been wanting to learn to play poker but have found it a little daunting, or if you can already play and have been looking for a fun poker app, then you really need to check out Poker with Bob, which hit the App Store today. The game is the work of Scary Robot Productions, a new LA-based app development studio founded by Hollywood animator Dustin Adair, whos responsible for animating such legendary sci-fi creations as the awesome Cylons in the Battlestar Galactica TV series, the Terminators in Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, and the Transformers in Transformers: War for Cybertron. So, with a pedigree like that, you'd expect Poker with Bob to be good, and thankfully, it is! Basically, its a light-hearted draw poker game with a twist, where you face off against Bob, a real-time, fully animated 3D character in a realistic casino setting. Bob rants and raves when he loses and taunts you mercilessly when he wins, and the game really does look like tons of fun, judging by the video. Here are some of the main features of the game, courtesy of Scary Robot Productions:
- Five different levels of increasing challenge and higher stakes.
- One-on-one multiplayer available through Bluetooth.
- Multiple high score tables tracking the player's greatest wins as well
- as their greatest comebacks.
- Auto-save - Bob keeps track of every hand so even if you have to quit suddenly, the game will be saved right where you left it.
- A full tutorial to help anyone pick up the game of draw poker in no
- time.
