Its not on iOS but its pretty fun, more so than sts games imo. One aspect u might not like is that u need energy to explore, and u are limited to 100 energy a day. 10 energy is required to go down "levels" in the missions, and missions will have more than one level. But this won't be a problem if u use a credit card and buy energy/a pass. If u don't want to pay then its fine, its just that patience is the key. All in all its really fun. Add me Oskitopee if u ever get to playing!

I quit because it limits you to what you can actually do.

^^Yeah that's true but if u spend ur ig money wisely, its not much of a problem unless u like to play for hours on end, which u shouldn't be doing anyway lol.

They had something like that in DL; it was removed. I doubt STS players would like it.

I've played it a little (IGN is Battlegrinder), and I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, the customization system is implemented so well that it handily beats that of any other game, the gun/sword/bombing mechanics are also really well done, and the level design and enemies are really well done. I'm a bit more on the fence about the armor and weapon system, because it leads to you spending a lot of time swap out armor and equipment every other level. However the armor and equipment system is still pretty cool, and the process of obtaining it (having to figure out what stuff you need, how to get it, and how badly you need compared to other items, ect) adds an element of complexity that's missing from many other games. I'm not a huge fan of the energy system, but it is a fairly effective business model, and elevator passes are cheap enough that I don't mind buying one when I play to start actively playing.
