Latest reviews of iStriker: Rescue & Combat app for iPhone and iPad
Graphics: Great 3D units and terrain, some with articulated parts. Decent visual style. Nice explosions and effects. Sound: Decent. Sound effects are appropriate, and sound like a lot of other shooters out there. Controls: Awkward, but workable with practice. Relative touch controls that have been slightly accelerated work ok, the awkward parts are in the extra features. Landing and taking off require a swipe down and up (respectively), but only on the top half of the screen. Your laser is activated with a swipe up in the bottom half. Bombs with a double tap. It would be really nice to have the option for buttons to control these, as swiping sometimes gets in the way of the core gameplay of dodging bullets. Gameplay: Well designed shmup, with some interesting additional features. Your fuel constantly runs out, but can be replenished (along with weapon upgrade, bombs, and health) by landing and allowing civilians to climb on board. You also have a rechargeable laser, and its necessary to make liberal use of it for both scoring and survival. Content: 6 levels, which is pretty standard for a shooter of this type. Each is of a good length, and well designed with lots of variety. Game Center leaderboards and achievements are present. Conclusion: 3.5/5 A decent shooter, with some interesting additions, but the controls and steep difficulty (even on easy) make it inaccessible to many. *If you add buttons for the extra controls, please make an option to place them on either the left or right (for left handed players)
AirAttack HD is a lot better. Graphics dont look too great.
