iPad: Cydonia app reviewed.

In the spirit of the long weekend I decided I would download a game and have some fun. Well cydonia is just that, good old mech wars shoot em up fun. With 21 free levels the game is quite challenging. I can imagine expansion packs to the game making it an all day affair. As it stands you can probably finish the game off in about two hours.

The basic premise of the game is that you have stolen a mech suit from the aliens, and are defending new earth on mars from the imperials... There are tones of star wars in this game, for instance the opposing sides mechs look like the ones from star wars, the imperial army is trying to kick you off the planet etc, but over all it's a no nonsense shooter.

All in all, well worth the price. This is the first iPhone game that I have downloaded on my iPad and not been disgusted with the quality of the graphics. There is really nothing wrong with the graphics once you 2x them, they are clear and well thought out, this should really be listed as a universal app, but hey. I believe the free price tag is only for a limited time, so go grab it while you can, even at 1.99 this game is worth the money.
