UNRAVEL THE MYSTERY
Follow the echoes of a lost civilization in a visually-stunning post-apocalyptic world where only robots survive to fight a never-ending war. Fight towards your goal and piece together the fragments to reveal exactly what happened when the old world ended. Is this the dawn of a new Epoch? And how can you find the one person you were originally assigned to protect?

IMMERSIVE SINGLE-PLAYER CAMPAIGN

STUNNING AAA VISUALS

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Epoch 1 is fun. No problems here. Though bit short quality game GG. We like the graphics, action packed. Prophetic, why didnt apple recommend this? Deserves an award . We beat it on hard already. Now going Ultra. This game is very challenging and adredaline pumping hand eye coordination insane.
This has some of the best mobile gameplay with no ads no mandatory microtransactions and the way you upgrade your gear is really cool. Only downside being you cant get it anymore.
Theres something about these older IOS games, theyre just good. This is a super simple game, but its got a good story through the data logs, good replayability, (though it is short) no micro transactions necessary, and it just feels good to play. Levels get harder, but you get better. The boss is really tough at first, but you learn. This apparently used to be $6, so its DEFINITELY worth the $0.99 now.
This Game is Amazing got it since 2014 and still play it n part 2.
This gem of a title can be more immersive with controller support and we would love to replay this game again if it has this added.
But as time has gone on the game has gotten hella repetitive. We really wish theyd add more modes and bigger bosses.
Please update both epoch and epoch 2.
Controls and story are above average and difficulty should please the casual to serious player.
Ive been playing epoch for years and we still love this game.
After you beat the game on easy, the Bots get tougher and tougher. Playing through the levels over and over is fun. Plenty of variety since there are ten levels with varied Bots to fight and weapons to dodge. Roll, jump, or take cover. You can customize your own Bot with upgrades. Seriously great game for the low price.
Best game on tablet people need this in there life.
The developers really care about this game. The game is pretty old but they decided to port it to 64-Bit anyways. They are active on Twitter and will reply to questions and comments tweeted to them.
This is the third time Ive re-downloaded this game, and its fun every time. The story is interesting, the mechanics are cool, and the weapons are awesome.
Good gameplay, some new ideas, and a good upgrade system. Absolute madman game devs make a Nazi Germany joke in the last news headline. Almost perfect, but main story is too short. Almost 5 years later, this is still one of our favs.
So we were playing this when it took us out of the game and reset it.
Ive played this on our old phone when the game first came out. We played it for ages and now Im playing it again on a new phone. One thing Ive noticed comparing the older version of the game is the lighting. In the old version, we could actually see what was going on on the screen, and in the scrapyard we could see what our robot looks like with different equippment. The new version of the game changed the lighting so much that everything is unnecessarily bright, theres so much white on the robot, and it doesnt look cool anymore when we put on different equippment. We wish there was an option to change the lighting effect.
When you play this game for the first time, all difficulties besides "Easy" are locked. On "Easy," almost every level in this game is a cakewalk, with the exception of the actually-somewhat-challenging final boss. Then, when you beat the game, all the other difficulties are unlocked. Now, you can play the exact same levels you just breezed through, except presumably harder. We say "presumably," because after a d*** move like that, we're not touching this again. The sad part is that there are still a lot of collectible in-game logs to find on higher difficulties, and they're actually entertaining to read. But they're not worth playing the game itself. In retrospect, maybe the developers should have asked themselves whether, out of all the game mechanics the App Store sorely lacks, "cover shooting" was the one that desperately needed to be adapted.
What a great game. We rarely try new ones. We're glad l did. You will also.
The game is really fun and addicting. There's more to it than just shooting. You plan your attack.
First time you play it you won't stop.
Must better game, action and graphics than we were expecting. Been playing this game off and on for a few years now, always a good go to.
We were so blown away by the graphics on this game! It's also really addicting to play.
The game have good graphics, the type of gameplay is very differente of any other game.
This is Tom from Portland, OR This game is Sweet. Great job guys. From Tom. Hi, This Tom again to tell you guys this. We put a lot time into playing this game and we realized is a very SWEET creation and it's our new best game on our iPod Great job Uppercut game inc. Thank-you very much for creating that's Perfect for us.
This is fun! We're not the biggest fan of playing games on our phone but this one piqued our interest and held it. We're hooked! Easy to learn but hard to master so you want to keep coming back for more. Thumbs up.
Great Graphic and Great Game!! Love it.
EPOCH. Is a great game. We saw it on the App Store last year, but had no money in our account. Recently, we downloaded the game, and we've found 1. The graphics are beautiful. 2. The controls are great for IOS. 3. Well, it's fun.
Every gamer must try this… Great piece of work.
Title says it all…still fun a year later.
This is truly one of the greatest games we've ever played. We have absolutely no complaints. Love this game.
Epoch is epic!!!! No offense but we are the master of the game we beet the the first and second game Epoch is not a waste of money!!!!!!!!!,.
The controls to this game are amazing. We C. We like the graphics. Definitely worth the Money.
Well worth the price. Very good animations and imagery.
Great graphics and unexpected although very fun gameplay :D.
The people at Unreal Studios have done an amazing job on this! It has a multiple profiles gadget on it (for those of u who don't know). We love the wonderful graphics and game play! It really pushes u to keep playing more and more and improves your gamin reflexes! Great Job Unreal Studios.
Epoch is a great game. From the stunning graphics to the unique gameplay, this game is well done.
It is amazing!we hope you are working on a 3rd version of EPOCH.
When we started loving this game we stopped when we had to beat a thing called O.G.R.E which is wat too hard to beat please make them easier now we can't play anymore cause of it.
We love this game! The combat system is so uneqe and the upgrades are perfect! Also it also has a super good story c:.
We mean yeah dramatic title, but it deserves even more than that. If it went up to 1,000,000,000 stars, Dr. Evil from Austin Powers would probably rate it ONE BILLION DOLLARS.
Amazing game! You should totally get the bundle.
A new way of looking at mobile gaming, this goes up there with infinity blade.
We originally played this game on our old iPod 4, and just recently got an iPhone 6. We've downloaded it again and still love its intriguing story, amazing gameplay and beautiful character design. Unluckily, we don't have enough in our wallet to buy the second one. It makes us sad, after the cliffhanger this one ended on. Keep up the good work guys.
Excellent fast-paced action! Awesome.
This game is better than any other game we've played in a long time.
Worth the bundle price. The reward versus challenge is just right.
This game is one of those fast paced games but it's endless fun keeps you coming back for more, and the diffrent about of guns, endless possibilities, a diffrent styles for eeryone.
This game is fun and addictive.. A must have in your game vault.
We really like combat games. This is honestly one of our favorites. There are not any games (that we know of) quite like this one. But if your looking for graphics, this game has good graphics, but there not the best.
This is one of the best games out there. Can't wait till we can get EPOCH2 we just think like a new campaign would be so much fun and a longer one like 23 levels but it's still fun to replay the harder ones.
