iPhone App Review – All Shakespeare’s Works (Free)

Screen dump of iPhone Shakespeare Application

What can you say about the works of Shakespeare? I wasn’t that keen at school, having Macbeth and the Merchant of Venice forced down my throat but over time have come to appreciate the cultural contribution and story telling that his plays brought.

For instance these words were first seen in his plays, though that doesn’t mean he invented them, just used them.

  1. Eyeball
  2. puking
  3. skim milk
  4. Obscene
  5. Hot-Blooded
  6. The Game is Afoot
  7. Epileptic
  8. Wormhole

None of which is relevant to this review! That said, it’s elegant, fast and lets you view all of the plays act by act. And it’s free. If you like Shakespeare and you have an iPhone then it is a no brainer. It was released in early September.
