User Rating:It was only a matter of time before something epic like the Mass Effect franchise would hit the iOS decks. With Mass Effect Infiltrator now on iOS, players can now experience the thrills and adrenaline rushes from the critically acclaimed series on the go.
Unlike many other mobile ports of successfully franchises though, Mass Effect Infiltrator does not disappoint and is indeed one of the best games on iOS to get at this point in time. With its own unique storyline, Mass Effect Infiltrator will keep you hooked for hours on end.
In terms of gameplay and controls, Mass Effect Infiltrator is by no means easy to master. Controls take a while to get used to, but they will grow on you. The plot is thick and it is honestly very difficult to stop playing this game.
As far as graphics are concerned, Mass Effect Infiltrator is simply stunning. The 3D landscapes are beautifully rendered, and characters are extremely lifelike. For a mobile platform, there is nothing to complain about and Mass Effect Infiltrator is definitely one of the most beautiful games out there right now.
For $4.99, this game might seem a little steep as far as the price scale is concerned. However, it is definitely worth every penny and this is one must have game to download.
