I played their new card game Hearthstone for a few minutes. Not really sure why it's not a tablet game by default. Maybe I didn't play long enough to appreciate some of the graphics/transitions, etc. But the gameplay seemed natural enough for a tablet/phone. But if you're into that kind of game, check out Ascention [1] or

The iOS version is in internal Beta. It's not available mostly because the game isn't ready yet and iOS lacks the ability to do a mass open Beta properly. I suspect that the iPad version will be available day one. This is likely a really bad thing for me, say good bye to gobs of hard earned cash. Hearthstone is a really really good game imo.

Good points. I spent another night playing and starting to get into it...
