We are perhaps a few years away from playing holographic chess as R2 and Chewbacca did on the Falcon, but the pieces are beginning to fall into place. Movile Inc. recently informed Touch Arcade's forum members of its plans to bring BoardBox to the iPad. "BoardBox is set to be the most graphically rich and realistic looking board game set on iPad... With dozens of features and true-to-life visuals, BoardBox is the only board game you will need on your iPad! Grab a friend and play a game of Chess, Checkers, or Reversi. Turn off the rules and make up your own! Play with a friend around the world via email!"

Here again is yet another example of a class of application that is better suited to the larger screen of the iPad. With a launch price of just $3.99 we think Movile Inc. could have a huge hit with BoardBox.
