Ascension: Return of the Fallen Expansion now on iOS

A couple of weeks ago I interviewed Justin Gary of Gary Games — better known as one of the Magic Pro-Tour players who founded the highly addicting deck building game, Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer. In this interview he hinted of an iOS version of the first expansion, Return of the Fallen due soon. And “soon” really meant before the holidays. For USD $2.99 you can upgrade your version of Ascension and buy RotF as an in-app purchase for USD $2.99. BUY ASCENSION: RETURN OF THE FALLEN (USD $2.99) Return of the Fallen introduces a new expansion deck which can be incorporated into the main game or played separately, albeit Read more »

Man, Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed machine is cranking like crazy. In anticipation of November 15th’s release of Assassin’s Creed Revelations, there is so much tie-in stuff happening, it would constitute an entire article to catalog them all. So hey, why not do just that? Read more »

Bang! The Bullet gets EPIC update for iOS

Many weeks ago we reviewed Bang! The Bullet. This app never made it to the top list of Apple apps for download but among a huge niche of board game geeks, Bang! is definite favorite. Recently, Palzoun & SpinVector released a much needed update that not only incudes the Dodge City Expansion set, it also put in the much needed online multiplayer that players from around the world were clamoring for. Previously, Bang! only had pass on play for some semblance of multiplayer but this turned out to be rather tedious and impractical. To sweeten the deal even further, the app now sells for only USD $3.99, a full dollar Read more »

Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer has version for iOS

Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer is by far one of my favorite card games. It’s right up there with 7 Wonders and Bang! Board Game Geek has awarded Ascension: CotG 3.5 stars out of 5 and the good news is that they full game is now available on iOS for a mere USD $4.99. The physical game costs USD $27.99. Ascension: CotG is a deck building game for 2-4 players. The game was designed by a handful of Magic: The Gathering Pros and they wanted to build a fast-paced card game that didn’t rely on who had the better deck beforehand. Instead, players start off in equal footing and build Read more »

Crimson: Steam Pirates an iOS game done right!

What happens when you take the creator of the Mechwarrior, Shadowrun and Crimson Skies series and put him at the helm of a new pirate game for the iOS? Crimson: Steam Pirates is the collaborative work of Jordan Weisman (our Mechwarrior guy) and Bungie Aerospace, which is Bungie’s own platform to help developers create games and launch them in mobile and social platforms. So we’re bringing together the guy who created Mechwarrior with the team that conceived the Halo Universe — and after months of shack work, Crimson: Steam Pirates is born. Forget the “YARR!” and “AHOY MATEY!” dialogue. Steam Pirates is set in a steam punk universe where pirates Read more »

Zombie Gunship Now in HD and still .99 cents

It’s definitely one of the biggest twists to zombie apocalypse games. In Zombie Gunship, the humans have taken the fight back to the undead from the skies. Combining the most exciting moments from Modern Warfare 2 on board an AC130 and adding a zombie twist (heck the black pings don’t even look anything near zombies), Zombie Gunship is hands down one of the better 5-minute fixes I’ve gotten my hands on. As an AC130 gunner, you have three different types of arsenal at your disposal. You must use these to light up the ground and defend the human bunker from being overrun by zombies. Outside, you must also help escort Read more »

Evil Dead Themed iOS Games While We Wait for the Movie Remake

Fans of the Evil Dead franchise may have heard of a remake of the 1981 cult classic. It’s the one franchise that made Bruce Campbell famous playing the chainsaw armed Ash and Sam Raimi as director (unfortunately he went on to direct other things like the flop that was Spider Man). So it has come to this: one of the defining pillars of geekdom is being remade after 30 years. Think about it, geeks: Army of Darkness is really just as old as the NASA Space Shuttle Program. So, while we wait for the remake of Ash’s time warp into the medieval era, it might not be a coincidence that Read more »
