Skyrim? There’s An App For That (No, Really)

Dragon Shout is an iPhone app that wants to be your digital journal for Skyrim. And from the sounds of it, may actually pull it off.

Billed as an “interactive map”, it’s essentially a giant, zoomable map of the game’s province that lets you drop markers and notes on things like dropped loot, areas for alchemy recipes, etc.

Later editions will introduce more social features, like the ability to share map markers, chat, and upload pictures.

Most of which sounds like fluff, but if you’re playing alongside friends and say, “Hey, here’s where I found some badass boots”, then that’s kinda cool. Especially since it’s free.

The first version of Dragon Shout will be later this week on both iPhone and iPad. Stay tuned Android and WP7 fans. [Touch Arcade]

    So when I’m not in the game, I’m putting entries into my phone about it?

    Put a web-service in Skyrim, let me mark from the game! … Then I’d be sold (When WP7 comes out!)

    I will never, under any circumstances, say to any of my friends, “Hey, here’s where I found some badass boots”

    Interesting app. I found on the app store this app which gives you a comprehensive map of skyrim. Has a very polished feel to it. Check it out http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=480785855&mt=8
