Majesco is the latest company to join the iPhone inner circle, announcing what will be its first release for the platform: the board game-like strategy title Karma Star.
Early gameplay details paint Karma Star as a mix between The Sims and Monopoly. Karma Star gives you control over a character who will live a lifetime in eight turns. During each turn, every player will be able to boost their stats in a number of areas relating to life and personality, including love, health, mind, and money. You can also be a jerk and attack other players, draining their stats in the process. Every move is a gamble — attacks can sometimes backfire, while sacrifices made early on can pay off later in the game.
Karma Star is designed specifically to fit with the iPhone user’s typical gaming profile — a full game lasts about ten minutes, making it a good match for portable play. Multiplayer sessions are supported via WiFi, and the game includes achievements and stat tracking for hardcore players.
Karma Star is expected to make its App Store debut by the end of March. More screenshots can be found in the gallery below.

I’ve had this game for well over a year and still play it daily. Can never join a wi-fi game. Should’ve reviewed it ages ago but the fact I am so far on speaks volumes. The graphics are excellent. The fewest number oi play at expert level and try to get all the bonus scores in the fewest games possible.
