    Apocalypse Max breathes new life into the zombie killing genre, and does it with a sick amount of flair and gusto.

    For fans of the side-scrolling shoot-em-up, Apocalypse Max delivers quite a lot in a fairly compact package. Requiring a fair amount of concentration, but never overly harsh, it wants you to be a survivor and will equip you with the appropriate weapon to do so.

    Violent and entertaining in equal measure, Apocalypse Max is a fitting homage to Metal Slug, and a great way to waste a few hours.

    Apocalypse Max is not the action shooter I had hoped for, and only the presentation really shines. Where it matters most the game is a bit shallow, and disappointing.

    If you are going to make a platform on iOS or else where this has set a new bar of expectations. Absolute perfection in all aspects of the game. Doesn't rely even a little on current iOS game design tactics like grinding etc. SNES platforming for the modern days.… Expand

    This game is beyond AWESOME!

    The best looking platform shooter in iOS. Feels more powerful with the EPIC knife combo attack combined with b    lood seeking weapons with very responsive controls. Love the way the game takes to the toughest enemies through beautiful animations and level.
