League of Evil: 2D iOS Retro Action at Its Best!

The League of Evil, a consortium of mad scientists, from all around the globe, must be stopped at all costs! That's where you, a special agent, able to flip, jump, run and kick your way through terrifying obstacles and ferocious guards, enter the special agent scene. That's the basic premise behind League of Evil and it sets the stage for intense 2D action on the iOS! Download this great game today on iTunes for only $1.99. With over 100 levels and tons of action, its certainly a keeper in your iOS game library!

Graphics are surprisingly retro. Players use a 2D sprite representing their hero and jump, leap, climb over all sorts f traps and enemies. Delivering a well-placed pixel kick to the mad enemies feels great, especially as it is essentially the end game goal for each level. Basically, you can expect the following: Get around traps without getting killed, avoid or kill enemy soldiers, grab intel suitcase for additional points, and finally find mad scientist-take him out! This may sound a little repetitive, but the levels are short and sweet, with points for the faster you beat each one (usually expected to be done in less than a minute, that is how fast these levels go!). For some levels, players must beat it in 9 seconds or less to get the top award (full star). It sounds insane, but if played correctly, (grab some fast-paced chiptech music), it is totally doable. I'm really terrible at 2D speed side scrollers, but I somehow have been able to get the hang of League of Evil with minimal rage and iPod throwing across the room!

I found the controls fairly responsive on my iPod touch. Basically, controls consist of left and right arrows on the left side of the screen, and a A and B buttons on the right side. That's it, nothing else. While I would prefer actual buttons (think: Gameboy or Nintendo DS) to the lack of tactile feedback on a touch screen, these touch buttons got the job. Every once in a while, I'll miss an easy jump and blame it on the controls, but overall they work fine.

Produced by WobblyWare and Ravenous games, League of Evil is a fantastic game for the iPod Touch iPhone or iPad. It's a really a gem in the midst of thousands of crummy time wasters and deserve special recognition for its gameplay, graphics and delightful entertainment. Check it out on Apple iTunes today!
