Based on the popular WWII-themed game, the new Sea Wolf app preserves the details that shot the arcade game to instant popularity (true-to-era ships -- including submarines, tankers, battleships, and destroyers -- klaxon horns, zipping speed boats, an artillery of weapons, and a chance to make the oceans safer for the allies) while taking advantage of the iOS platform's enhanced graphics and tilt and touch technology. The game is comprised of 8 missions, wherein the sailor (the player) must destroy enemy ships and planes with torpedoes, 50-calibre deck guns and flares, while fending off enemy limpet mines and torpedo counterattacks. Sailors receive authentic mission briefings, and rise up the ranks as they complete each mission.
"Sea Wolf continues to be one of our most popular arcade games, so we handpicked it for our first foray into mobile gaming," said Sal Mirando, Co-Founder of Coastal Amusements. "Our hope is that the mobile version of the game will both ignite nostalgia among original fans and reproduce a similar level of enthusiasm among younger gamers."
