JBRUU Well-Known Member May 9, 2012 6,758 0 36 USA #5 JBRUU, May 8, 2013 Decent game. I bought it for $3 and never finished, put in a few hours though. The controls are a pain in the butt, the graphics are genuinely console-quality, better if you have a retina iPad. Connector Well-Known Member May 6, 2012 15,512 1 0 In the Chatroom http://thechatroom.freeforums.net/ #6 Connector, May 8, 2013 I bought it onsale for a buck, and never ever played it. Kinda reminds me to try it though, just don't care much for infinity blade games all that much, but I am curious. kioshi Well-Known Member Apr 9, 2011 880 0 0 Brazil #7 kioshi, May 8, 2013 Aren't the regular controls that were implemented later better? Never played this game till now but I'm enjoying the controls (still at the beginning tho) Btw get this guys, the game is gorgeous to say the least. Zeldaniac Well-Known Member Dec 22, 2012 207 0 0 #8 Zeldaniac, May 8, 2013 I really hate to be "that guy," but does this run even halfway playable on 4th gen iPod touch? I'll be picking it up anyway but thought I'd ask. TheEvilRobot Well-Known Member Apr 4, 2013 895 0 0 #9 TheEvilRobot, May 8, 2013 No you need a digital compas. Such bull.s. JBRUU Well-Known Member May 9, 2012 6,758 0 36 USA #10 JBRUU, May 8, 2013 No, IMO they're even worse. The default controls really aren't unplayable, they're just clunky and undesirable. Btw, this is rather heavy on the IAP. For free it's still worth it, but just keep that in mind. jeffyg3 Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2010 1,251 0 36 #11 jeffyg3, May 8, 2013 It's free now in the US. Been waiting for this to go free. All that coin IAP scared me off from buying it...was kinda like a warning sign to stay away =\ squashy Well-Known Member Jan 21, 2013 1,997 1 38 *burp* The Garden of Sinners #12 squashy, May 8, 2013 Maybe AOTW?

Locked. Will try in the weekend. Psykikgmr Well-Known Member Apr 10, 2010 327 0 0 #15 Psykikgmr, May 8, 2013 Game is meh. Got it on release day and wish there was a warning about IAPs back then cuz nothing showed up on any kind IAP at the time Console like graphics. Cool at first, but you will hit pay walls later on & realize this is a freemium game heavy on getting u to spend extra $$$ on gold coins. I hate when developers make heavy IAP free-mium-like games and charge it like a premium game. It's a mediocre freemium game wrapped up in pretty graphics.

VaroFN Well-Known Member Sep 28, 2011 4,270 0 36 #17 VaroFN, May 8, 2013 Don't worry, you're not missing anything, believe me. This game is just too damn repetitive and dull and you need to grind A LOT. Before trying the beta I thought that it was going to play like DMC. Of course, I was wrong. IMO I, Gladiator is better than this game. Siked Well-Known Member Jun 10, 2012 71 0 0 #18 Siked, May 8, 2013 Can't even find the game on the UK app store...
