Fightback - Acquired a Weapon Gameplay (iPhone/iPad/Android) HD
(2013) Fightback (FREE APP) - Review Gameplay First Look (iPhone/iPad/Android) HD
----------
The idea of Fightback is to fight through towers of bad guys, floor by floor. The main character's daughter has been kidnapped, so he stomps across floors in an over-the-top rage and shows an exaggerated anger that can only been seen in a 1980's-style action movie. Just to show how tough he is, he'll even punch elevator buttons and scream dramatically towards departing helicopters.
Thugs will rush you one at a time and you must dispatch them with punches and kicks. Tapping the touch screen will throw a punch, while swiping will kick in the swipe's direction, either high, low, or mid-level. Skilled players will be able to chain together moves and create large combos, not unlike some of Ninja Theory's console efforts.
"The combat system includes everything you would expect to see in a proper combat system," said Kristensen. This was noticeable, as I played through Fightback for myself, as later enemies started to gradually attack with more advanced moves and fighting tactics. They would also learn to evade my strikes and counter my blows. Fortunately, there are also power-ups that can be equipped, like a gun that will clear the screen of all foes.
