    I was so surprised back in the days when I found out 'Injustice' was also available on iOS. For free ! I have been playing it on PC for something like fifty hours (and I rated it a 6/10 here on Metacritic).

It was a pleasure to witness the two games worked in pair, as unlocking rewards on mobile allows you to unlock other rewards on PC.

    Graphics are more than decent, the cutscenes are impressive, the story is quite engaging, characters benefits from a great design. The progression is cool as you can improve your favourite characters all along you playthrough. Soundtrack is as awesome as in the base game. The overall atmosphere is amazing.

    However this simply can't overcome the major flaws of 'Injustice': the mechanics and gameplay of fights are amazingly poor and boring, the impacts of hits are ridiculous, special moves are terrible and the fact that opponent can change his fighters when he wants to is a horrible idea. The controls are more than childish (but at least varied). Who says mobile game says pay-to-win (and I am so tired that things still happen this way these days). So prepare to encounter overpowered noobs. Online matches are a mess. The camera sometimes jerks during the fights making it look uglier and messier. Fun to play for something like two hours and then becomes way too boring and repetitive.    … Expand

    I have been playing this game for the last 4 years and I am anxiously waiting for the next better game from Disney or other competing companies (if any).

There is not really much of upgrade that they have made in these years. If you want to really enjoy playing the higher difficult levels of Injustice, it is all about spending money to get better players, gears and upgrades. And once you have done that, you would realize you have wasted your money for nothing.

    Online games are not real, there are no real players in the network, all of them are computer bots. And you would only realise that as the computer would always beat you at the end, however strong the players or high their gear scores are.

    There are some design flaws as well. Some characters like the Raven - supposedly she is to "swap" the life of opponent when @ 20% or less but every time she swaps she takes out the entire life of an opponent with 70-80K health even if her character has just 20-25K health. Isnt that ridiculous ? Apparently, Disney got confused with the meaning of swapping. Similar flaws with Killer Frost which frosts you on every blow. And obviously most of the highest difficulty levels, you are playing the Raven plus Killer Frost.    … Expand

    This is a completely fraud game. The online battles have no real players in it, consider yourself as the only real player and the rest are all computer bots.

    Also, they have game cheats which drain your health whenever and however they want.

I love the replay-ability, i love the graphics, and I absolutely love the selection. I dislike that hackers still aren't taken care of, how slow it is for new characters to be added and how there are certain characters/teams that are overused because there's no real balance. But I still love this game and constantly trying to build up your roster. I wish instead of updating it, that they would eventually just make a sequel, but I know the next game hasn't come out yet.… Expand

    Injustice is the most addictive mobile beat em up that I've played. The levelling system and character collection makes it feel like a pokemon game.

However, I have not spent any real money and can regularly rank in the top 1% multiplayer after some real grinding. Regular challenges and prizes help to make committed gamers out of casuals like me.

    My only criticisms - occasionally my characters do not recharge, even though I have never used the clock glitch. The WBID features are also poorly implemented and do not work unfortunately.

    Actually I don't really play mobile games but this game just doesn't leave you and you can't leave it. New challanges, new multiplayer updates and awards, character upgrades, the character variety all of those are great. Graphics are at the top level. Only thing missing is a story but the game overall covers the mistakes.

    Injustice: Gods Among Us has the potential to be one of the greatest fighting apps ever made.

However, even with the creativity in character designs and arenas, there is nothing to really get engaged in. Like most of the DC apps, the game gets repetitive within the first hour of playing, using delays between fights to coerce fans into buying upgrades and boosters. This game is the biggest example of greed hidden in design. Once you reach a certain point in the game, it becomes impossible to win fights simply because of the unfair tiers for the different characters: gold, silver, and bronze. The higher level is significantly better off than the lower ones, and normally too expensive to buy. So, unless you want to repeat the beginning levels for hours to gain coins and eventually buy a useful character, there is really no point to playing this game. Once again, DC ruins a potentially addictive fighter due to their own selfishness. As a fighter, it's fun and the characters each feel unique and stylized. But the game is too repetitive, and too focused on profit over content, to forgive.

    This game is great, its just that simple. This version is an amazing game on its own even if it didn't have the DC characters to help it out. The touch controls work very well on an Ipad but they're not very comfortable for and Ipod or Iphone. Injustice for ios is free so why not download it, its not hurting you if you don't enjoy it.

    The controls are pretty basic and there is not much thinking involved during the battles. But the graphics are awesome on the ios and it's definately a game that will keep you busy for a very long time. It's a very enjoyable game, and I recommend any ios user to play this.

    Injustice: Gods Among Us is LITERALLY the same g*****n game as Final Fantasy All The Bravest.

The only problem with that is their isn't nearly the finesse for such endeavors. (I have blocked maybe 10 attacks total in 5 hours of playtime) I payed $15 real world dollars just to unlock Bane who is only slightly better than the Flash starter....Injustice: Gods Among Us for iOS is the most cynical cash grab of a game I have ever seen with content based around paying money to get what ultimately amounts to character skins and the ability to just play the game. A horrible game that uses a license so poorly and in such a manipulative way that it has already discounted from the quality of the source material as a whole for me. As such this game is a huge waste of time and I IMPLORE EVERYBODY TO IGNORE IT. My first 0/100"… Expand

    And a very good extra is that you will unlock some extras in the final versions for consoles.

    While the core fighting mechanics are somewhat dull, the rest of the game is engaging with its level-up system and three tag team concept. But downloading Injustice for iOS never becomes essential. Although I imagine the whole unlockables that can be carried to the console version could put people considering buying the game on console an advantage point.

    ’Gods Among Us’ comes off as more of a companion app for the console version than a stand alone title, and as it hints so tantalizingly at what could’ve been, that’s the real injustice.

    Injustice is the most successful attempt at a fighting game on a cellular device that I have seen, but it certainly has its downsides. Simply, the game can get boring very quickly because of the simplicity of the controls and just the sheer volume of fights that are available to you.
