  • Summary: THE INCIDENT is a fast-paced, retro-style action game. Run, dodge and jump your way to safety as an angry rain of just about everything in the world falls and builds a mountain of platforms for you to climb up, up… up to the source of it all: the cause of THE INCIDENT.

    THE INCIDENT    THE INCIDENT is a fast-paced, retro-style action game. Run, dodge and jump your way to safety as an angry rain of just about everything in the world falls and builds a mountain of platforms for you to climb up, up… up to the source of it all: the cause of THE INCIDENT.

    THE INCIDENT is easy to pick up but hard to master. It's a totally new gameplay concept and it's perhaps TOO addictive. It's loaded with power-ups, power-downs (d'oh!) and collectables. Try to beat the game, then try to unlock all the achievements. No one said getting 500 coins would be easy.

    THE INCIDENT is a universal app that runs great on any iPhone or iPod touch, and on iPad. Buy once, play anywhere!

    WHAT'S IN THE BOX:

    • Supercool 8-bit pixel art
    • Awesome chiptune soundtrack
    • 7 levels to explore and survive
    • Hundreds of unique objects, hundreds of ways to die
    • The Trophy Room, where you recall your adventures
    • The elusive "B-mode"    … Expand

    Set over seven beautiful retro-style levels, half the fun of The Incident is in seeing what craziness can be thrown your way next while humming along to the giddy chiptune.

    The Incident is a prime example of how the best iPhone games are simple ideas, perfectly executed.

    The Incident has a few flaws, but where else are you going to score a trophy for getting bashed on the head by a pink smart car?

    Nice graphics but sadly a bit shallow and to difficult to control.
