Introduction
I’m getting quite a bit bored with the iPhone fighting games app genre in the App Store that try to offer you a free game, only for you to find out that you have to pay to actually become a good player. All of these games have the same concept: build a base, unlock new characters, go into very dull fights, and level-up.

If you want to fight you will need to have enough energy and if the building of your base doesn’t go fast enough you can use in-game currency that you need to buy with real money to speed things up. Mutants: Genetic Gladiators is an example of a fighting games app, but developer Kobojo has added a tiny twist to the game.
You will now have to breed your own mutants in order to get far in this game developed for both iPad and iPhone.
Check out our Mutants: Genetic Gladiators app review to see if this is a top fighting games app for iPhone and iPad gamers.
Gameplay
As mentioned in the introduction, this game is after your money. The game does everything from the building of a base to breeding your mutants in its own time, meaning that half of the time you will not be able to play as you’re waiting for something to finish.

Of course this can all be sped up by using real-life currency if you are willing to buy gold to speed up anything that takes too long. In terms of the battles, they also have a money-making scheme behind this.
You will need to have enough energy to fight, and of course, this also takes time to regenerate, meaning you can’t always play battles when you’re waiting for other things to finish. The battles are turn-based and each character type has its own strengths and weaknesses, basically like an advanced rock-paper-scissors game.
Graphics and Sound
Having said everything negative in the last paragraph, now is the time for some more positive stuff. The graphics of the game are above what you would expect from a free-to-play game like this, and everything from the battles to the base looks stunning in 3D. The sound of the game is also up to scratch and the music and sound effects are truly top-notch.

Conclusion
There are plenty of other games out there that will deliver a similar experience as this game, but with a less in-your-face selling attitude. Still, if you like the idea of a game where you can breed your own mutants, this game might be good for you.
The graphics and sound of the game are sublime and give the game that extra bit of attraction, but it’s not enough to play it for hours and hours. The game is compatible with both iPad and iPhone and is just under 100 MB.
