TPG says, "The iOS scene is just getting more and more impressive. We just heard from Nine Pounds Studios about their latest project, Xenome, Episode 1. With an included 12 hours of game play, a huge open world, and some fairly detailed RPG elements, we think this may be the game to watch. So far it's only on the iPhone, though we've emailed the devs with a question about whether they plan to bring it to the iPad."
TheAppera: For many people, it will be one of their favourite games. For some, though, the quirks will be too much for them to deal with.
AppSmile: Enjoyable, that is…if you own an iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, or a 32GB/64GB iPod Touch. As of right now, Xenome: Episode 1 only works on these devices and is not compatible with older models.
Ever since people first recognized the iPhone as a legitimate gaming platform, players have dreamed of a fully realized portable MMORPG in the style of World of Warcraft. So far, technological limitations have seemed to bar such a game, but developers keep getting closer and closer to realizing it, especially as the iPhone itself gets more and more powerful.
Really impressed with the depth and scope of this game.
God that is a long game for something on the iPhone.
Wow. I don't know if the big epic type of game truly fits on iOS, but this is a nice attempt at it from the looks of it.
I keep wishing that I had more time to spend playing the deeper games in the iPhone. Alas the home machines are sucking up my time like a demented vacuum cleaner at the moment.
iPhone apps definitely need more RPGs. Welcomed addition.
