    Despite its shortcomings, the Android version of Injustice: Gods Among Us serves as a great companion game to the console version, and should not be considered a direct port. ... As far as playing the game on its own though, players will eventually grow tired of the repetition, probably not sticking with the mobile version unless they’re dedicated to rising up the ranks on their console.

    It tries to appeal to fans of fighting games, and while the system works well for iPhone, it might be too simplistic for fans of the original game. And it tries to do the collectible card thing, but… well, we guess it does that part okay? That said, it’s not bad, but it kind of feels like a jack of all trades, master of none. But as it’s free to play, we can only encourage you to check it out for yourself if you’re not sure. At the very least, it’s worth a look.

    With a fantastic storyline and addictive gameplay, Injustice deserves a spot on your shelf. However, there are things holding it back from being the best it can be. Interactive backgrounds can get annoying and there are some questionable balance issues within those backgrounds. That being said, Injustice: Gods Among Us is still a great game that does a lot of things right.

    Injustice: Gods Among Us takes the best elements of 2011's excellent Mortal Kombat reboot and fuses them with a faithful superhero setting, resulting in a solid fighting game with a likeable cast. The online multiplayer may not always be consistent, but this is still a heroic effort that's more than fit for the Gods.

    Though it may share many similarities with 2011’s Mortal Kombat reboot, Injustice: Gods Among Us is a fun and fresh fighting game that stands well on its own merits. The distinctive and fun gameplay comprising of huge attacks coupled with flashy power moves makes this an accessible fighter for genre veterans as well as newcomers who might simply enjoy the idea of pitting their favorite DC heroes and villains against one another.

    Injustice: Gods Among Us

    Played this game on my PlayStation. I was amazed how they were able to pull off a superhero fighting game with a decent story like Injustice: Gods Among Us. The entire fighting mechanics doesn't seem as fluid as other big fighting games but at least they were able to do it properly. The story actually came from the comics and it was properly told. The graphics are not that good for me. But at least I was able to enjoy this game. **VISUALS** _Artistry: 7/12_ _Technical Merit: 5/8_ **SOUND DESIGN** _Music: 10/12_ _Sound Effects & Vocals: 7/8_ **INTERACTION** _Control & Interface: 5/8_ _Player Agency: 6/8_ _Accessibility: 3/4_ **MECHANICS** _Feedback & Fun: /710_ _Depth: 3/5_ _Variety: 5/5_ **CHARACTER** _Narrative: 6/8_ _Heart: 4/6_ _Originality: 4/6_
