    iPint iPhone/iPod Touch Game

    UPDATE 7/30/08: As Steve notes in the comments, iPint doesn’t show up in the iTunes store any more. Not sure why this is.

    So, the iTunes App Store went live today and so did the 2.0 iPhone firmware (well, kinda…). Perusing the store, I saw a free app from Carling called iPint (iTunes link). The game involves sliding a pint down the bar and avoiding obstacles to get it into your friend’s waiting hands. The game uses the iPhone’s motion sensor to let you guide the pint.

    When you get the pint in your friend’s hands, you are rewarded with a pint you can “drink” by tilting the phone.

    The game is nicely done and pretty fun but I wish they would have gone a little less heavy on the branding. Do you really need to see multiple Carling logos every second you play?

    George Will makes the case a bit more eloquently.
