With only his discarded tickets to go on, it’s a race against the clock to see if Mister X gets away once again, or England’s finest can bring him back to the Yard.

“The game has been a huge cult classic since it’s creation, and it was a natural choice to bring to iOS”

said Thomas Bleyer, Managing Director of Ravensburger Digital.

“And by working with FDG Entertainment, the creators of Cover Orange, we’ve been able to make something really special out of it, including a new setting and voice chat during multiplayer sessions.”

Here is the trailer:

Neon Play, a UK-based mobile games studio which has already had over 30 million mobile game downloads, ten of which have achieved over one million downloads including Paper Glider, Flick Football, Golf Putt Pro, Paper Glider Crazy Copter and Hotshot Pool,  have just announced the release of their biggest gaming title to date. The game is heralded as an epic action-arcade shooter and goes by the name of Bravo Force: Last Stand.

“Prepare yourself soldier, for the most intense battle of your life…”

Bravo Force: Last Stand begins with an action-packed cut-scene that smoothly guides you into a quick interactive tutorial. Those gamers who have spent hours in an arcade playing Time Crisis games will instantly be familiar with this type of gameplay.

The aim of the game is to survive for as long as possible against waves of enemies who will do their best to shoot you to pieces. Armed an entire arsenal of weaponry and the ability to take cover behind a wall, your job is to ‘tap to shoot’ the incoming enemies.

Waves grow in difficulty as new enemies arrive with bigger and badder weapons. You’ll see anything from foot-soldiers with AK47s to fearsome heavy artillery – such as machine gunners and tanks (save your RPGs for these!).

Whilst safely crouched behind a wall you can throw grenades and call in air support in the form of ‘Perks’.

Like the perks in the popular Call of Duty titles they are a collection of in-game boosts to aid the player. They allow the player to access body armor, score multipliers and a new wealth of firepower to use in-game. It’s incredibly addictive to call in an Airstrike, purely to see the explosive carnage and your enemies flying everywhere.

The simple gameplay mechanic of ‘tap to shoot’ makes Bravo Force: Last Stand instantly accessible to both casual gamers and hardcore fans of first-person shooters. In the online mode there are more than enough competitive and character building elements to keep players coming back for more.

Getting promoted through the ranks earn you bragging rights that are displayed to your online friends, but also certain promotions offer in-game rewards such as increased health, extra ammo and score multipliers. With over 175 missions to complete, Bravo Force: Last Stand will definitely keep players tapping their trigger finger for months to come.

“Most of the shooting games on the App Store are quite tricky to play”

“Bravo Force: Last Stand has been designed from the ground up to be instantly playable, meaning both casual and hardcore gamers can focus on taking out the bad guys with our natural ‘tap to shoot’ controls.”

- says Oli Christie, CEO of Neon Play

Originally published and developed by Rockstar Games and Remedy Entertainment back in 2001, Max Payne was a groundbreaking title that introduced the concept of Bullet Time® to videogames.

Using Bullet Time as its chief gameplay mechanic, Max Payne’s presentation and design pays homage to the bullet ballet style of Hong-Kong action cinema. The game’s presentation included noir-inspired graphic-novel cutscenes that, in addition to Max’s inner monologue, created a lead character that went beyond the caricatures typical of action shooters at the time. Max’s complex storytelling and dark atmosphere were unique concepts whose influence continues to this day.

Featuring HD graphics, high-resolution textures, user-customizable controls and Social Club connectivity, Max Payne Mobile supports the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod Touch 4, iPad 1, iPad 2 and the new iPad.

“With gesture-based controls familiar to anyone who has played games likeInfinity Blade or even Angry Birds, The Dark Meadow is an accessible core gaming experience for everyone that reveals new layers and new secrets every time you play it,” said Chip Sineni creative director of Phosphor Games Studios.  “While we are extremely excited with the final results, we are looking forward to delivering additional content in the coming months to expand the world of The Dark Meadow.”

Early critical acclaim has called The Dark Meadow “…a standout in almostevery way.  From look to setting to the touch-centric gameplay, it shines…” –Touch Arcade.

The Dark Meadow is a visually charged, combat intensive world of exploration.  You awake in a hospital uncertain of how you arrived there or why.  An old man warns of a beautiful witch whose minions roam the halls seeking the living.  It is only when the witch is destroyed that you will be released from this unrelenting torment.

As you explore the photo-realistic world, you will need both your crossbow for ranged combat as well as your sword for in close, melee combat.  Gesture-based “pull back and fire” as well as slashing combat will be instantly recognizable to iOS players, and node-based movement through the world makes navigation simple and perfectly paced.

Role-playing game mechanics enhance the exploration, as a wide variety of items are secreted throughout the world – from hidden scraps of paper that reveal the mystery of your imprisonment, to money which can be used to purchase better equipment and weapons.

The Dark Meadow is available now at the App Store for £3.99 and is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean and Italian.

“After we released the first Jaws game, we received a lot of feedback from fans saying they wanted to play as the shark,” said Jon Walsh, CEO at Fuse Powered Inc. “We’re thrilled to be able to partner with Hothead Games to bring fans exactly what they’ve been waiting for – the ability to play as the most famous 25-foot, 6,000 pound eating machine in the world.”

In the game, the shark is on a quest to attack and devour everything and everyone, including seagulls, boats and planes. Developed by Hothead Games, Jaws Revenge is based on the classic blockbuster franchise, and features the giant shark on a wild rampage. Players control Jaws as he swims through three stages and thirty levels via one-touch gameplay to guide him to his next meal.
Each victim increases Jaws’ Frenzy meter, and while in a Frenzy Mode, the shark speeds up and is granted other bonuses. But watch out – colliding with mines and other obstacles will reduce the shark’s health meter and eventually end the game. Every level features different objectives, such as eating a number of swimmers, jumping high out of the water, or achieving point or distance milestones.

Gameplay features:
• Be the shark! Play as one of the most famous movie characters of all time. Touch and hold to dive deep underwater and release to leap out of the waves for an in-flight meal.
• Thirty randomly-generated levels to eat your way through, set in three locales including Amity Island, setting of the 1975 classic.
• Eat people. Almost 70 different people and objects just waiting to end up in your hungry shark belly.
• Two Modes to experience. Objective Mode has gamers attempt to accomplish certain actions, earning Shark Tooth coins and unlocking new features, while Free Swim allows gamers to play a single level, aiming for max distance and objects eaten.
• Get deadlier. Collect Shark Tooth coins and use them to upgrade the shark’s attributes, add Frenzy charges and unlock content.
• Game Center integration. Includes over 60 possible achievements and Free Swim Leaderboards.

The Jaws Revenge App is available from the App Store on iPad, iPhone and iPod touch at http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/jaws-revenge/id456273368
