Civilizations Wars, published by Chillingo and developed by Cave of Wonders Studios, mixes real-time strategy, role-playing, and god games into one neat little app.

The game has you building armies and making strategic attacks down on earth, but at any time you can use your god-like powers to rain terror from above - maybe chuck out the odd hurricane, or disrupt the battlefield with a giant earthquake.

Plus, as in an RPG, you gain experience points from each victory and can spend additional skill points on new enemies and resources. This should give your favourite warriors some consistency across the game’s many arenas, instead of starting afresh in each battle.

Civilizations Wars offers up plenty to do, with multiple difficulty levels, a handful of different races, some unique gameplay styles, and even unlockable game modes for each level that makes playing old stages both fun and challenging. Plus, there’s Game Center support for achievements and leaderboards.

If that sounds like something you’d be into, then Civilizations Wars is yours on iPhone and iPod touch for 59p / 99c / €0.79c and on iPad for £1.19 / $1.99 / €1.59.
