iOS and Android Isolation sequel to be “sunsetted” by November
Blackout currently costs about $0.99 or £0.79 oniOS,Androidand theAmazonstore, and is absolutely worth the pocket change if you have any affection for the Alien universe. It’s a sequel to the acclaimedAlien: Isolation, once again starring Ellen Ripley’s daughter Amanda, but instead of playing hide-and-scream with the Xenomorph yourself, you get to cower in a duct with a CCTV display, switching cameras and remotely opening doors to usher fellow humans to safety.
You aren’t beyond reach, mind you. The Alien might occasionally come looking for you, so be sure to cut the power and slam those shutters sharpish if you hear something dribbling. Think of it as a narrative puzzlebox with a splash of acid blood, and some decent cinematic production values - before launch,fans were convinced it would be some kind of shooter.
