Official Oktoberfest game coming to iPhone

Here’s one for iPhone-ownin’ beer drinkers from all around the world. The official Oktoberfest iPhone app is around the corner, allowing you to at least virtually experience all the fun of drinking as many beers as humanly possibly — and the same goes for eating snorkers. ;)

Actually, you’ll only be able to play the good ol’ pub sport games — including finger-wrestling (Fingerhakeln), High-Striker, Schuhplattler, conducting the oompah band in the beer tent, riding the ghost train, waitressing in a beer tent — all which are associated with the festival. Moreover, there’s a quiz about Bavaria, Munich and the Oktoberfest, which will help you learn few things along the way, and eventually make sure your next visit to the Oktoberfest is better used.

Finally, you should know that Oktoberfest – The Official Game is multi-cultural just like the festival, and in that sense it will be available in no time in English, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, and of course German.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
