Ambrosia Software, Inc. has announced three iPhone and iPod touch games for the newly opened Apple App Store: Aki Mahjong, mondo Solitaire and Mr. Sudoku.

• Aki Mahjong combines the ancient Chinese game of Mahjong with an enchanting journey across Japan. The principle is simple: a number of ivory tiles are arranged on a beautiful Japanese backdrop. The goal is to make all of the tiles disappear by matching them to similar tiles. Players can easily browse Aki’s levels by simply flicking a finger, thanks to the Core Animation-powered interface. Tap the level to select and the game is ready to play.
• mondo Solitaire’s beautiful, crisp graphics enables players to easily identify cards and assess their current move. With more than 100 included games, players are sure to find all their favorites and discover new games to enjoy. Using a familiar library search interface, games can be sorted and selected by name, style, favorites, and even popularity. The categorized interface makes it really easy to find the exact game to play.
• Mr. Sudoku’s unique and innovative interface allows players to use a familiar input device to select digits - their own personal digits!  Simply use a finger to draw the appropriate number and it is instantly converted into the actual number. Ensuring the strategy and brain-flexing doesn’t stop, there are four difficulty levels with thousands of different Sudoku puzzles for to choose from.

All three games are just $9.99 (US) each, and are available now from Apple’s App Store on iPhone and iPod touch, or through iTunes.
