EPOCH.

EPOCH is no doubt one of the most interesting shooters available on the App Store. You can use a lot of different weapons and fight a lot of different enemies through a nice single player campaign that you have to complete three times, at different difficulty levels, to find out what happened to the person your robot was supposed to protect. The graphics are gorgeous thanks to the Unreal Engine, the touch controls work fine.

It is, however, a joy to look at and – in spite of its lows – highly replayable. Like guns, robots, and hiding behind walls? Then EPOCH.'s a no-brainer.

A polished shooting gallery of sorts, EPOCH.'s terrific graphics, upgradeable weaponry, and engaging gameplay make it a title worth checking out.

EPOCH has a short campaign, but a large replay value. A great iPod Touch , iPad , or iPhone app that is well worth the money.

Epoch is a very impressive debut effort from indie developer Uppercut. Gamers turned off by more traditional iOS shooters might have just found the game they have been waiting for.

EPOCH stands alongside a rare handful of games that combine not only beautiful graphics for a handheld device, but gameplay perfectly suited to the iOS platform while also invoking shades of far more complex titles like Infinity Blade; an easy must have for action gamers with minutes to kill each day.

Epoch's visuals and gameplay mechanics are it's shining force, easily making it one of the most desirable games on the app store at this moment in time for all you graphic lovers. If story doesn't interest you and you're a fan of cover based gameplay, although repetitive, Epoch is indeed the reigning champion.

A wonderfully addictive and gorgeous shooter that serves as a powerful showpiece for iPhone and iPad graphics. We just want more, which at the end of the day is a true testament to this game's greatness.

And check out the game's story. It's a delight and delivered just right.

A unique take on the third-person action genre with satisfyingly different touchscreen controls.

Epoch tries to adapt a Third Person Shooter gameplay to a portable device. It almost succeeds, resulting funny and somehow spectacular; too bat for the low difficulty level.

This isn't a deep game by any means, but it's colourful, noisy, and approaches iOS's limitations with cunning.

EPOCH isn't a game changer in the way that Infinity Blade was (the comparison is perhaps a bit unfair, but they seem like spiritual brothers in a sense). It is, however, more than the sum of its parts, and much more entertaining than you might expect a shooting gallery game to be.

I may be guilty of not judging Epoch on its own merits, but the similarities to Infinity Blade are all there, and almost everything is inferior.

Not a bad game, but neither a noteworthy one. Its tactical action is well designed, but too repetitive. Although its graphics are great, there is nothing to foster replayability and it lacks variety.
