Recently he appeared on iOS ambitious project known developer Ubisoft game called Michael Jackson: The Experience. The game has been available to users of other platforms, such as Xbox, PSP, Wii, it is now the turn of the iPad owners. Let's talk about how this project is a success.
The game is a dance rhythm-arcade game where you have to perform certain tasks and earn points for it. The closest of the gameplay can be called a musical arcade Tap Tap and Rock Band.
Visually, Michael Jackson: The Experience looks great. The graphics will not disappoint even demanding players. Well chosen costumes Michael and scenery against which the action takes place. Dancing virtual Michael, though far from reality, but still easily recognizable. All levels being based on the Michael Jackson music videos, as you can guess from the opening and closing movies.
Total in Game 4 of the basic gestures that you need to play after the dancing Michael. Each level is divided into three parts. In the first and third you will need to comply strictly with all the action, gaining extra points for combo unmistakable. In the middle level there is a small fragment, which no longer need to follow the instructions, and you can show imagination and manage to dance.
The choice you are three levels of difficulty are available. If the light will not be difficult with little or no training to perform all the actions correctly, a high level of complexity will have to work to try to keep up with what's happening on screen.
Unfortunately, for all the visual appeal of the game, enjoy a good graphics and the famous choreography of Michael you will not succeed. All attention is focused on activities that must be performed. I think this is quite a big disadvantage, but I can not think of how you want to change gameplay, so you can focus on the dance Michael Jackson. To absolutely not lose the opportunity to observe what is happening, you can use the mode of On Demand Perfomance, in which you are no longer a player, as an observer.
Since I started talking about the shortcomings of the game, we can not say that the price of Michael Jackson: The Experience to put it mildly overpriced. Developers are asking for her five dollars, while you are only 4 songs - the other three have to buy for two dollars each. I think $ 11 - it's too much for a game with seven locations. In the game you can see such well-known hits like Beat It, Smooth Criminal, Billie Jean. Ubisoft promises to soon add new levels, unfortunately it is not clear whether they will be free, or again acquired for two dollars. In addition to buy songs, the application has the opportunity to purchase one additional costumes for each level for a dollar apiece. I think it's too much, too costly for the game if you have purchased all of the content.
If you do not take into account the inflated cost of the application, and hope that Michael Jackson: The Experience for iOS on the number of songs will catch up with versions for other platforms, the impression will be very positive. I can not call myself a big fan of games, but Michael Jackson: The Experience I liked and I got great pleasure from the gameplay.
