If you’re willing to have only one game take up a massive amount of memory on your iPad (the app requires an enormous 940 MB download), pick this one. The sequel to the hugely popular game is an epic-adventure tale about immortal swordsman Siris, who quests for the enigmatic Worker of Secrets to avenge his father’s death. The visuals are truly stunning—sweeping views, august landscapes and meticulous textures are just some of the striking flourishes in the app. We especially like the new heavy weapons and dual-sword options. Overall, “Infinity Blade 2” offers a magnificent gaming experience that’s become the gold standard for how developers should innovate for the iOS platform.
