Gameloft's gorgeous stealth-puzzler The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn - The Game goes live for iPhone and iPad
Blistering Barnacles!
There are very few good movie tie-ins on iOS. There are also very few good stealth-based games on iOS.
Gameloft's newly released The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn - The Game will hope to break the mould on both counts, then.
In this Universal app, you primarily play as the titular Belgian reporter, who must use his smarts to sneak past foes, solve mysteries, race a camel, and investigate crime without disturbing so much as a twig.
I say "primarily" because you'll also be taking control of Tintin's dog, Snowy, Captain Haddock, and Sir Francis Haddock during the game - the plot of which mirrors the animated film's storyline.
The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn - The Game is out now for iPhone and iPad for £4.99. We’ll have a full review up as soon as possible.
