The GU iOS Game of the Week -- iBomber Defense Pacific
The newest tower-defense style mobile game for iOS from developer Cobra Mobile and publisher Chillingo Ltd. -- iBomber Defense Pacific -- puts players in the role of Commander and places them in charge of organizing the defenses and defensive strategy for a variety of missions covering a wide array of situations that might have been encountered in the historical theater of battle covered by the game and its story.
The version of iBomber that we played for this review was Version 1.1 for the iPad and iPhone (it supports the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation) and all generations of the iPad, and requires iOS 3.2 or later), and is priced at just .99 cents (which is really a bargain because the quality of this game could have easily seen it priced at $4.99 and above). The default language is English, and the download size is just 109MB (though the game uses slightly more than that after it is installed since it keeps track of stats and has game saves just so you know).
