I received news a couple days ago that Command and Conquer: Red Alert is coming to the iPhone and iPod Touch. For those of you that don’t know, Command and Conquer is a real time strategy game. In a fact sheet that EA sent me, they noted that some of the key features in this game are:
ACHIEVE VICTORY WITH TOUCH-SCREEN POWER
Drag and scroll to gauge the battlefield. Pinch-zoom in and out of the action. Select and move units with a tap. Control multiple units at once!CHOOSE YOUR FAVORITE FACTION
Fight for Soviet domination or battle to restore peace with the Allies. Deploy military might unique to each side and engage in different campaign storylines.BATTLE THROUGH 12 COMBAT LEVELS
Fight in Skirmish Mode on two different battlefield maps with war squads you create and control.MANAGE TROOPS ON REALISTIC BATTLEFIELDS
Command units in different environmental conditions. Build your base and manage supplies with a new easy-to-use combat system.ARM YOURSELF FOR TOTAL WAR
Employ classic units like Kirov Air Ships and new units like the Paladin Tank. Or R&D new technologies to destroy your enemies.
Being a history buff, I can’t wait until this game comes out on the iPhone. It seems like it would be so much fun to play. It also looks like it would be a good game to pass the time. Look below to see some of the screenshots that have been released so far.
