It might run if Toady made a completely gutted version.  No z-levels (so no caverns, no adamantine, no super fun stuff), go back to the old days when they had to build into the side of a cliff.... randomly generate a region for play but NOT an entire world.  Just an embark square with a river and a mountain to dig into.  That might be playable on an ipad, possibly.  Might need more gutting.

Of course, that will never happen.  The idea is kind of silly.  Why take everything Toady's done in the past few years and cut it out so it will fit on an ipad...? It will probably never run very well if it manages to run.

Well I think with the right programing we could make an app that enables to player to play dwarf fortress by conectiong to another system.

The merchandise would be interesting think about a dwarf fortress sock(to beat people with), or some dwarven crafts.

Don't care what, but something that menaces with spikes.  :D




EDIT: ooh! And how about a thong with a & on it, with the caption "CORRUPT INTENTIONS."  ;D

That's the point, it wouldn't be as fun to crush their souls if they didn't have souls to begin with.

the ipad does not have the processor power to run these games, especially not dwarven fortress
