With Apple’s smartwatch reportedly going on sale soon, it’s time to see what some of the first wrist-worn apps will look like — and Tiny Tower developer Nimblebit has revealed that its next game will be among them. As Touch Arcade reports, while not designed exclusively for the Apple Watch, Nimblebit’s new game Letterpad will be coming to the platform in addition to iOS. The studio even released a mockup showing what the word game will look like on the watch. The game is still in development, and no release date has been set, but it looks like a good example of what gaming on the Apple Watch might end up looking like — relatively straightforward experiences that are still playable on a tiny screen, and games that you can play in short bursts. While Letterpad is one of the first games revealed for the platform, with the Apple Watch rumored to go on sale in March, it likely won’t be long before we see more.
