Mass Effect Infiltrator

There is probably no 2012 recently launched video game to date that could come close to the magnitude of sales and popularity of Mass Effect 3 that was released for the consoles on March 6, 2012.

However, did you know there is another Mass Effect video game that may not be nearly as impressive as the main Mass Effect console game, but is another option for you to play the game? It's a  mobile Mass Effect game that you can play while on the go -- Mass Effect Infiltrator.

The iOS app, Mass Effect Infiltrator is in no way comparable to Mass Effect 3 in graphics or gameplay, but is an alternative that allows you to play the game wherever you may be.  Unlike Mass Effect 3, Mass Effect Infiltrator does not have a main storyline, but is instead a series of mini games.

Mass Effect Infiltrator is a third person shooter where you play  agent Randall Ezno with a mission to free Cerberus prisoners as well as receive rewards for collecting evidence of Cerberus' crimes along the way

You can use your Mass Effect 3 gameplay in conjunction with the Mass Effect Infiltrator app.  For example you have the ability to upload intel to your Galaxy of War account from the Origins website.

Credits for Mass Effect 3, the console game,  can also be bought through in-app purchases.   Gamers may agree  the ability to purchase credits may take away from actually winning, or earning credits through game play.
