Never Stop Playing Frozen Synapse
Frozen Synapse for Mac OS X
Loading...I don’t think I’ve written about Frozen Synpase before. It’s a unique strategy game that sees you plan out a series of moves (whilst your opponent does the same) and then have them played out. So for example you might move a guy with a shotgun round a corner to open fire… only to discover that an enemy with an assault rifle happened to spot you moving through a window and opened fire. It’s a great game, and accompanied by a cyberpunk noir story of intrigue and a popping soundtrack.
Developer Mode 7 haven’t rested since the game’s release almost exactly 2 years ago, releasing an expansion (“Red”) last year, an American Football-themed version due in 2014, and now releasing the game on iOS today:
Here are some things you can do with this wonderful product:
- Play the full single player campaign and every multiplayer mode from the original game
- Enjoy full cross-play on the same account: start a game on your desktop and finish it on your tablet, perhaps during a boring family occasion
- Luxuriate in the portability of tablet gameplay with a brand new interface crafted explicitly for your horrendous wiggling digits
- Hotseat your way to both friends and fortune (fortune sold separately) with local multiplayer! Passing your device around in a public place has never been more likely to excite your forlorn cortex
- And a whole lot more!
The cross-play option in particular might actually encourage me to finish the game now, it’s a pity more games don’t let you do that.
