Minecraft arrives to mine your wallets on iOS

Those who sit inside the Venn diagram of iOS users and Minecraft fans have been missing out on all the love. They watched with envious eyes as the mobile edition of the world-building game launched on the Xperia Play before an Android-wide release back in October. As of today, that injustice has been remedied, but it's not all gravy. The Pocket Edition of the game is the same stripped-down version that you can play on Gingerbread; that means there's no crafting, mining or survival modes -- just the classic construction mode. Considering the spartan nature of the software, the $7 asking price seems pretty hefty -- still, when you need a fix, you need a fix, right?
