I'm sure you remember Infinity Blade, the new game from Epic Games that will be released by the end of this year, and you are probably looking forward to it, but now there is a possible contender for the title of the best game for iOS devices. Mutant Bash TV is an iOS port of the famous Rage game developed by Id Software for consoles and PC. The game itself is a 3D shooter and you control a character who lives in a post-apocalyptic world because the earth was hit by asteroids and most of its population was killed. In general, Mutant Bash TV is a game that is quite repetitive and similar in some aspects to Doom Ressurection, but the graphics are extraordinary and will definitely represent a big step forward for gaming on iOS.
Mutant Bash TV it will be available in just a few weeks at the price of €0.79 for iDevices without Retina Display and €1.59 for terminals equipped with Retina Display. Those from Id Software are well-known for very good games and I hope that this one will not be an exception to the rule.
The goal of all this, much like the vaults in the Fallout series, is to be able to restore society after the nuclear (or in this case, asteroid) apocalypse. Unsurprisingly, the ark system doesn't work as well as was hoped. You are the sole survivor of your ark, and with all the other members of your group dead, you awaken to a very different future in a world that has long since forgotten about the Eden Project and the existence of the arks.
Mutant Bash TV plays surprisingly similar to DOOM Resurrection [$6.99]. The entire game takes place on rails, and even the controls are laid out similarly. Tilting controls the camera and your aim, and you have buttons to dodge, fire, switch weapons, and reload. The main difference is just how much faster everything is in Mutant Bash TV. Mutants pop up everywhere, and while you're dealing with them there are bags of cash to grab and bullseyes to shoot. Your overall performance is graded at the end of the level, at which point you can either move on to a new level or replay the last one for an even higher score. Four difficulty settings are included, ranging from easy (where it's seemingly impossible to die) to nightmare (which is incredibly difficult).
