Description
IGN’s Action Game of the Year is now available for your iPad!
The premier sci-fi FPS on iPad takes full advantage of the device’s capabilities for optimal fluidity and staggering graphics, creating the most impressive gaming experience to date.
With Earth no longer able to sustain life, huge artificial satellites called “near-orbitals” were constructed for people to live on. To protect themselves, the near-orbitals banded together to form N.O.V.A., the Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance. Now, a strange threat has emerged from the darkness of space. A Marine ship, reported missing just a week ago, has suddenly reappeared and is headed directly for the near-orbitals, ignoring all communications. Against his will, retired Marine hero Kal Wardin is forcefully returned to active duty to prevent mankind's annihilation.

Needs work
It was a fun game until update. The 3 finger movement to open door don't work on the iPad. When looking for support from the maker I hit a brick wall.
Game loft = evil
This game seems fun however I really don't know because there is a bug in the first level for iPads where you can not open the door with three fingers, only two light up. Don't try contacting game loft because there phone numbers are fake and there e-mail support is useless. If you have an iPad DON'T BUY THIS APP!!!
FREAKING AWSOME!!!
This is one wicked awesome IPad game. Graphics are amazing, gameplay excellent, controls easy once you get used to them, weapons are all really cool. Gameloft has a winner here. Can't wait to try N.O.V.A. 2!!! All in all this is one wicked cool game you have to buy it!!!
