Imaginary Range HD

Title: Imaginary Range HD
Producer: Square - Enix Co. LTD.
Number/issue: 2
Genre: Action/adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, game
Pages: 100+
Date of publication: 2012
Language: English, French, Japanese
Price: Free
Platform(s): iPad & iPhone
Apple Store

Imaginary Range HD is the updated version of the old Imaginary Ranged reviewed some time ago.
It includes a new chapter, after the sci-fi of the first one this time we can see a more traditional Final Fantasy setting, but, and this is new, some peeks in our world.
The recipe it's the same, a good mix between a comic book and a game, in my opinion the right way to make comics in the near future.

Sorry for the lack of update but the real life is really a pain sometimes.
Today something different, a review of A Survival Guide to Mars, an interactive guide to the planet Barsoom for the  Centenary of “A Princess of Mars”, and the cause of the lack of update. In fact I'm one of the authors. And this was an epic work.
The Blue Monkey Studio has developed a Barsoom temed app for android and ipad.

At the moment the Apple version (called "A Walk under the Moons of Mars") is still on review, but the android version is on sale!
