XCOM: Enemy Unknown
Platform: iOS (see Apple Store for details)
Developer: 2K Games
Rating out of five: ****
XCOM, aliens and all, makes the transition to iOS devices relatively unscathed.
Yes, there is a blander colour palette and less detail in character models, but on the whole, Firaxis' tactical-action game is as playable and addictive as ever.
Sensible adaptions to the interface make playing via a touchscreen feel natural, while the cloud-saving feature means your progress will transfer from iPad to iPhone.
My only gripes are a lack of fast-scrolling (a real grind on larger levels) and long loading times between stages. - The Independent
