DESCRIPTION

As in the popular first-person shooter for consoles and computers, players fight through WWII action on two fronts in Glu's mobile edition of Call of Duty: World at War. The game is played from a distant third-person perspective, similar to the style of old arcade shooters such as Frontline or Ikari Warriors. Armed with a rifle, a limited number of grenades, and at times, a powerful flamethrower, players battle Japanese forces in the Pacific, as a U.S. Marine or British SAS officer, and face brigades of desperate, cornered Nazi soldiers as a member of the Russian infantry. In many missions, the player's character fights alongside others towards a greater goal, to give the player a sense of being a single soldier in the thick of a large battle. Objectives vary from mission to mission and include raids, espionage, and straight-up combat. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
