Sky Pursuit app review: take your stand

Introduction

Let's skip ahead to the future where you'll need to take your stand against a mysterious alien object that has just landed on earth. The Sky Pursuit app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone takes place in the year 2099 when mankind has been completely wiped out by the invasion and you're all that remains. Your battle will be taking place in the skies and is intense, challenging, and completely addictive. While this game takes plenty of practice to master, playing it is very simple thanks to the one-finger swipe gesture controls.

Are you Ready for the Battle?

Do you think you've got what it takes to take on the battle in Sky Pursuit? Well you're going to find out really fast because the action begins the moment you launch this app. You will be fighting off the endless hordes of alien enemies that are trying to destroy your ship. Since you're the last of mankind they want you gone and at the same time you know you're the only hope so you have to succeed. There are different types of aliens and they'll be coming at you in all directions so you really need to have fast reflexes here. You will also be able to out-maneuver them when you make use of the tactical moves in your arsenal.

The app was just recently updated with a number of minor bug fixes to give users a smooth gaming experience. The app is free to download and play however you can purchase credits that can be used in the game for $4.99. The app doesn't yet have a customer rating.
 

Game Features

There are plenty of ways you'll be able to fight your enemies thanks to the weapons you have available. Choose from the lasers, a machine gun, canon, plasma, missile launcher, and plasma. Keep in mind that most of the weapons will need to be purchased with credits that you can earn or you can buy. The app supports upgrades, unlockables, challenges that you can complete, and plenty more.

Of course it's important to point out the sound effects and graphics in the Sky Pursuit app, both of which are immersive and fun. For all you competitive types the app supports Game Center. I like that you are given a really brief tutorial on how to use the controls when you first launch the game, and these controls are both simple and responsive.
