Editor’s Pick: Verticus

Verticus Universal (Optimized for both the iPad and iPhone) (4.5 stars with 768 Ratings)
$0.99 → Free
 

Wow! Stan Lee’s Verticus (Read Full Review) was just released last week and featured in our Hot, New Games of the Week. It has gone free today for a limited time!

Here’s a title from the endless run genre you don’t see very often- a story. And it is an original story with characters and artwork from the legendary Stan Lee, the artist behind Spiderman and Iron Man.

In Verticus, the planet is in danger. The planet’s core is overrun by alien creatures called Obliterators. As the planet’s only hope, you must fall to the center of the planet, avoid thousands of obstacles and mines, fight alien spacecrafts hidden in the depth of the planet, and save the planet from total destruction. It is all packed in a visually striking, action packed gameplay that will have you come back for more.

    This app is terrible and I don’t know how it became an editors pick. First off the game is money hungry. You are given a certain amount of coins before every turn. Every time you die you have to pay coins to play from where you left off. After you’ve run out of coins they take you to the in-app purchase store to buy coins to continue from where you left off. Otherwise you’ll have to wait till you regain coins over the next couple hours. Second, which to me is even worse is the forced notifications. After I got the first one I went in the settings and turned all of them off. Three hours later I got another one, I went back to the notifications section and they were still all off. Some how this app gets around that. The graphics are great and the game play is fun, but not worth all of the greedy in-purchases and forced notifications.
