Huntdown

Graphics: great! Sound design and music: great. Performance: runs smoothly, BUT it crashed a fair amount. I’ve completed main campaign on normal and I’d say it’s fun for your money. A classically inspired side scroller shooter of the 1980’s. The pixelated graphics and great music are top notch. Gameplay is fun with good variation in weapons. Wish the bounty hunters had a little bit more to them than just a different gun and special ability. Enemies and bosses will keep you engaged and even mad to a point of almost throwing your phone. Unfortunate I had 3 crashes of the game in my total of 5 hours playing which is terrible for a priced game like this. With that you have to restart the entire level again. Overall good buy for the money, but the crashing definitely needs to be dealt with.

Oh my god, where to even begin. This game is amazing. Nowadays, it’s so hard to find mobile games that are actually worth playing. So when I find a game with a genre/concept that I enjoy that actually has detail and effort and isn’t all “OnLy OnE pErCeNt CaN gEt To LeVeL fIvE”, naturally I’m intrigued. I found this game one day in the App Store, In a section titled “Brand New Games We Love.” I clicked on it and started scrolling, found the game, and was immediately in love. Not only is the story cool, but the developers really took the time to bring it to life with the extra details. The characters, the voice acting, the little secrets off to the side. Like, did you know that if a bullet hits one of the parking signs, than it will spin around? It’s a detail that barely matters, but makes the game so much of a work of art. And the characters are cool too. Each has their own weapon and voice, and even has separate opinions on dogs. DOGS. Plus, (and I only realized this once I started writing this review) I haven’t seen a single ad since I opened the game. Point being, this is the greatest game I’ve discovered since Sky Force, possibly even better. So check it out, and make sure to buy the full version. You won’t regret it.

I don’t often write reviews but this game is too good. Whether you use a controller or the touchscreen, iPad or iPhone, this game is absolute perfection. Ridiculous dialogue, legitimately great music, and excellent mechanics make this an instant classic. The levels are the perfect length to actually be able to finish in a mobile session and the boss fights are extremely fun. I also love the pay model for this one; you can play a couple of levels for free and if you like it you can unlock the whole thing as an in app purchase with no ads or micro transactions. Wonderful! Play this game!
