THE INCIDENT is a fast-paced, retro-style action game. Run, dodge and jump your way to safety as an angry rain of just about everything in the world falls and builds a mountain of platforms for you to climb up, up… up to the source of it all: the cause of THE INCIDENT.

"This iPhone/iPad game is really great - get it! $2. It makes me laugh every time I play it." —John Romero, Designer of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and Quake.

"A game you pick up quickly, but can't put back down." —Engadget

"Gaming's Most Charming Vision of the Apocalypse" —Gizmodo

"The controls work well, the graphics look cool, it's universal from the get go, and I really dig the whole concept behind the game." —Touch Arcade

"Terrific little indie games like this are what make the iPhone platform really shine." —TUAW

THE INCIDENT is easy to pick up but hard to master. It's a totally new gameplay concept and it's perhaps TOO addictive. It's loaded with power-ups, power-downs (d'oh!) and collectables.

THE INCIDENT is a universal app that runs great on any iPhone or iPod touch, and on iPad. Buy once, play anywhere!

WHAT'S IN THE BOX:

• Supercool 8-bit pixel art with Retina display support • Awesome chiptune soundtrack • 7 levels to explore and survive in "The Rise & Fall of Frank Solway" • Join competitive multiplayer games on your Apple TV in "Coincidents" • Dodge and jump as high as you can in "Endless Nightfall" • Score sharing with Game Center • Hundreds of unique objects, hundreds of ways to die • The Award Room, where you recall your adventures • The elusive "B-mode"

Game is super fun!!!! I remember few years back I played this with my older sister and we loved it. Now I was searching up the game and now I found it! I thought my memory’s were gone forever! But can you change the starting up music? It gives me PTSD lol. Anyways 5 stars!!!

Update does NOT add support for iPhone X resolution

Why???
     
by Doofusmobkey · July 2, 2015

It's unplayable now. The screen is stretched out and it doesn't work. I use to love this game...why??

Still works great after all these years

An absolute 5-star for refreshing this timeless game. I won't even care about bugs right now. You ROCK!

Terrible for iPhone 4
     
by Doober3000 · March 12, 2015

It has the potential to be fun but the screen looks too stretched out when I open the app. I can't pick any of the options unless I just tap around the screen. If this was fixed I think it would be a 5 star game but don't plan on playing it with iPhone 4.

Great !
