Mobile Game Review - God of War: Betrayal

January 25th, 2008 by oragod

Make no mistake - Mobile is a valid gaming platform — and you can tell ‘em Kratos said so.

God of War: Betrayal fills in the gaps between the first two God of War games, when Kratos defeated Ares to claim an Olympian throne and got something of a big head about it. In telling the tale of Kratos’ rise before a spectacular fall at the beginning of God of War II, many will tremble at the feet of this warrior-god and many a god will be displeased.

Kratos’ first mobile adventure is a 2D side-scroller, not entirely unlike those we saw during the glory days of the 16-bit generation. But it’s important to note right away that God of War: Betrayal is not just a cookie-cutter platformer with Kratos pasted over some other non-descript hero. This is God of War, through and through. The action and puzzle elements are very much true to the original PS2 games — this really is an extension of the God of War universe. DOWNLOAD IT HERE
