The on-screen controls work well for an iOS shooter, and in first-person mode it's still rather easy to make accurate head shots and dart from cover to cover. You can drag them to new positions and control even the tiniest aspects of your approach, which is something never before offered in a Call of Duty game. Most missions allow you to switch seamlessly between a first-person perspective and a top-down view that lets you control all your squad members independently. Strike Team doesn't try to completely replicate the traditionally twitchy first-person Call of Duty experience on iOS, but instead takes a more tactical approach.
This is less cumbersome than it may sound, and as you maneuver through each mission, there's always an on-screen button that forces your teammates to gather on you. You can pick and choose which missions to play (or replay), and each will have you performing familiar tasks such as eliminating enemy forces, collecting key items or surviving an onslaught of attackers.Īs the "team" moniker suggests, squad play is a major part of the game, and you'll almost always need to control multiple soldiers at a time. The plot of Strike Team is fragmented and presented as multiple conflicts that dot the globe.
It's not that Call of Duty titles on iOS are notoriously bad - in fact, most of them have been quite good - but the fact that we had heard practically nothing about the game prior to it popping up in the App Store made me think it wasn't a particularly rich experience. To be completely honest, I wasn't expecting much from Call of Duty: Strike Team.
