Created by a Big in Japan developer and designer team made up of James Skidmore and Travis Wyatt, Classic Pen and Paper Games: The Business Traveler's Edition offers a new spin on the classic pen-and-paper games Tic Tac Toe, Hangman, and Dots and Boxes - giving business travelers an enjoyable way to pass the time during airport layovers or long flights.

Featuring fun, cocktail-napkin-themed graphics, realistic sound effects and intuitive navigation and game play, Classic Pen and Paper Games includes:

Tic Tac Toe: Play the computer, choosing from three levels of difficulty - or play a human opponent and keep score.
Hangman: Test your knowledge of more than 2,000 TV show and movie titles, animals, car names, and common words and phrases.
Dots and Boxes: Finally, you can play this classic strategy game without having to draw your own grid.

Skidmore has created numerous iPhone applications, including the popular TextLater, which enables users to schedule their text messages to be sent at a specific date and time.
