Big Sandwich Games' Hoard has garnered a fair amount of positive buzz. The studio is bringing this PlayStation Network title to PSP later this month for $9.99.
Starting on March 22, you'll be able to play as a dragon on the go, and do some of the activities dragons are known for (e.g., being a jerk to everyone, everywhere, at all times).
For Europe, however, both PSP and PSN versions of Hoard are set to launch in early April. As always, I feel obligated to apologize to you for this cruelest of fates.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

This game is definitely worth a look if you think it's interesting just from the description.
It's kind of like an action/strategy board game where you actively control a fire-breathing dragon. It's cheap and pretty damn original, and it has several different game modes (including multiplayer) so if you don't like the style of play in a particular mode, there's just as much content in the other modes.
The developers have already released a free expansion/update for the PSN version that gives some more maps and features.
It's probably worth the full $15, but at $10 or fewer it's a steal.
Thanks for the info! Any idea if there's a demo?
I think the Hoard demo went up a few weeks ago, but i can't confirm right now. I bought it for $10, the initial $15 was a little steep for me, especially as there wasn't a demo at the time.
It's alot of fun and a good change of pace. Youtube will give you a basic idea of gameplay.
Thanks!
