According to Kotaku, puzzle/RPG hybrid Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords for the iPhone and iPod touch will appear on the App Store next month for $9.95, courtesy of D3Publisher and TransGaming.
TransGaming also previously helped bring the addictive Infinite Interactive-developed title to Macs in May. Since debuting in March 2007 as a handheld game, Puzzle Quest has been ported to nearly every conceivable console and download service.
D3P and Infinite Interactive have two other puzzle-themed titles scheduled to release for other platforms in the next several months — Galactrix and Puzzle Kingdoms. Perhaps one or both of these will eventually appear on the App Store, too?

D3Publisher has partnered with TransGaming to bring Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords to the iPhone and the iPod Touch. The game is already available on multiple consoles, the PC, and the Mac, but now you’ll see it in the App Store this fall, bringing the much beloved puzzle game to a powerful mobile platform. Recently Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords won the Best Downloadable Game award at the 11th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards.
