    *** “The graphics of Avatar are impressive, and show Gameloft's continued efforts to push the limits of the platform.” – Preview by TouchArcade
    *** “It's solid and impressive so far. Gameloft put a lot of work into this game, pushing it past your typical movie license game. It shows that they care about what they're releasing, even for a phone game.” – Preview by Destructoid

    Regardless of whether or not you buy into the movie's unprecedented hype, this game is one all action fans must own.

    Aside from the occasional input lag, this is as engrossing a portable game can be outside of 3-D.

    The game weighs in at a hefty £5.99 on the old price scales, but for high production values and sheer amount of content on offer, the price is justified.

    Avatar is easily one of the best movie tie-in games on the App Store, but more than that it is a very good action game that I recommend to any gamer, whether they're looking forward to the movie or not.

    If you're looking for a good time killer with great game play but aren't really interested in story, I would say that Avatar is worth a look. You can check it out for $6.99.

    Vibrant graphics and bold ideas breathe fresh air into James Cameron Avatar, despite the stifling quirks of its combat system and controls.

    Despite some interesting game design ideas, an admirable longevity and brilliant graphics, this is unluckily just another shallow tie-in.
