Playworld Superheroes for iPhone - a mobile COH?

[doc7924]

A new game I saw in the App Store -

You basically can create your own superhero and run around a city fighting

Empower your child's imagination by handing them the coolest crafting package with which to design their ultimate alter-ego. Playworld then rewards your child's creativity by supercharging their creation, transporting them from the everyday world into somewhere only children can go. Fly, leap, and battle enemies against the backdrop of a Hollywood spectacle, jumping back to the real world to craft new tools and gadgets to level up!  Armed only with their imagination, your child must skip between two worlds to save them both in a Hollywood blockbuster-styled game of their own creation.

Its $4 but I haven't bought it as I don't want to waste money in case it sucks. Hopefully it might go free for a limited time like a lot of games do to drum up interest.

The game footage in this video looks cool: Playworld Superheroes - Make, Imagine, Play!

Yeah it does. Reminds me a tiny bit of COH in fact.

If it was cheaper I would certainly give it a shot.

Or if they at least put out a trial version.

It looks very kiddie for my taste.  I'd rather play CO.

It is for kids - just reminded me of COH from the descriptions.

Creation is Coh like but gameplay is infinity blade/cover system/epoch.

Yeah I saw a few reviews that people were mad because the video trailer was very misleading on actual gameplay.

Yup, sale to $.99 and I still can't pull the trigger.

Its free right now - I may download it just for the heck of it to see for myself.
