iPhone Game Turns The Election Into A Real Slugfest
Chair Entertainment and Epic Games, makers of the popular Infinity Blade series, have come out with a new came called VOTE!!! The free entertaining iOS game lets you take on the role of President Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, and then battle first-person style on your iPhone, iPad or iPod for points in a mock debate/battle.
The game itself is all tongue-in-cheek. The candidates start off in suits and beat each other mercilessly with microphones. Gameplay is controlled pretty much as it is in Infinity Blade, using gestures to block, hit and dodge. If you’ve played Infinity Blade before, you’ll recognize many of the moves.
While the game is for entertainment purposes only, it also serves as a vehicle to register voters and raise awareness on campaign-related issues like healthcare and the economy.
Chair and Epic partnered with Rock the Vote, Voters Network and Project Vote smart to provide tools for in game voter registration and information about the candidates and their positions on the issues.
You can download the game for free from the AppStore. It’s compatible with the iPhone 3GS, 4 and 4S, the iPod Touch (3rd Gen) and iPad.
