I like the graphics and gameplay. The scenes are so beautifully rendered I want more. Is it possible to expand the scene range or have more scenes.
Hard for beginners, but after several minutes steering becames easy and intuitive. It is not big production, it is just excellent when you are waiting for your bus. I like this game :)
Sorry but extremely dull game. Graphics, content, and originality are all lacking. Crash Coarse is the same price but Fortis couldn't be remotely close to the quality work put into Crash Coarse. Same controls and concept but with games like Meteor Blitz and C.C to compare to this really should be free.
Its nice game with 3D background. Looking very good, play good and i have nice time with this game!
Those of you that have not purchased this game beware! There's a new game from Discovery Game Co. called AirForce's Duty selling for $6.99. Look at screen shots 1 and 3 on this page and look at the two screenshots on AirForce's Duty. They are virtually identical!!!! They're operating under two different companies, trying to sell the same game. Even the description of the game is the same:)!! I thought this was a fun game until I saw this disturbing discovery that a Developer would release the game for $.99 and $6.99 for AKA "AirForce's Duty" and I lost all respect for shady people like this!! If you're gonna support a Developer like this, at least spend $.99 on Fortis and don't get ripped off!! Just looking out for my fellow gamers or IOS fans. Let's see if Apple will address this issue or what the Developer's feedback will say!!! Good Luck Everyone!!
