Infinite Blade for iPhone probably isn't the game you think it is

We’ve seen a few hilarious app names over the years here at Pocket Gamer Towers, and although this latest one from Dragonfly Studio doesn’t quite match up to Tiny Wings (not Tiny Wings) on Android, it still exhibits a fair amount of gall. Meet Infinite Blade.

Brilliantly, the poorly translated app description goes on to call the game 'Infinity Blade' accidentally in the closing paragraph.

Unlike the Chair Entertainment original, Infinite Blade is a 2D game with touchscreen-drawing mechanics. No God Kings or cutting-edge graphics here, although the art design is quite attractive.

Dragonfly Studio calls it “a full user experience game” that will have gamers “surprised and excited”. I can see a fair few people being ‘surprised’ when they realise it’s a Chinese slash-'em-up, that’s for sure.

If you don’t mind awkward controls and poorly translated text, Infinite Blade can be yours right now for £1.79/$2.99.

Or, alternatively, you could download something else. Like, say, Pocket Gamer Gold Award-winning game, Infinity Blade, for £3.49/$5.99.
