Abandon Ship! Lifeboat Released For iPhone
August 3, 2009
The objective of Lifeboat is pretty simple, just save as many people as possible from a sinking ship using lifeboats. This is accomplished by tilting your device from side-to-side and sliding passengers off into lifeboats. All of the passengers won't land in your lifeboats, however, so you must recover them before they drown or get consumed by sharks by tapping them with your finger, which will place them back on the ship.
Saving passengers earns you cash during career mode, which can be used to purchase upgrades to improve the ship's handling, ballasts, and swimming lessons for the passengers, among other bonuses. Lifeboat also contains a quickplay mode for those short gaming sessions.
Lifeboat is available in the App Store for the introductory price of $.99. Expect a full in-depth review of the game from us sometime in the near future.
Embedded below is a gameplay trailer for Lifeboat.
