Bladeslinger is one of the best new iOS games of the year, due to its polished combination of action, exploration, and narrative.
Bladeslinger has a great premise, a great setting and a thoughtful, effective combat system. Its camera and unbalanced power-ups are a bummer, but neither prevented me from enjoying the frightful and intense adventure.
It just seems that the battle mechanics could use a little tweaking before the next episode graces the App Store.
True, the gorgeous visuals certainly warrant consideration (especially on newer iOS hardware), and the battle system is filled with potential, but the controls are a huge black mark on the entire experience.
Bladeslinger may be a showpiece on iOS for how it looks, but the gameplay was just too ambitious for the touchscreen's capabilities this time, and the overall game suffers as a result.
You'll want to love Bladeslinger, but that love will go unrequited for the most part. Let's hope any future installments give a little more back.
Bladeslinger looks stunning, but the gameplay is just as rotten as the monsters you have to kill.
