Masters of the Universe fans, The Most Powerful Game in the Universe is now on the App Store.
I’m a huge He-Man fan. Like, huge. As one of the defining toy lines and cartoons of the ’80s, it was a mainstay of my childhood and continues to be one of the coolest properties to come out of the ‘me decade’.
The Masters have been making a comeback in recent years too- a very indirect comeback. No, there’s no cartoon or steady comic book to speak of, but the current line of toys (which are amazing pieces of work from the 4 Horsemen sculpting team) have found a niche on Mattycollector.com (go check ’em out, seriously) and limited edition comics have recently appeared that address the He-Man universe in much more mature terms.
Not a bad time overall to be a fan. And now there’s this:
I had the chance to play He-Man: The Most Powerful Game in the Universe at the NYCC just about two weeks ago and it’s awesome. It’s a supremely old school, tongue in cheek, romp across Eternia that would be right at home on the SNES (and that’s a good thing). The MOTU title from Chillingo that dropped today is just what the franchise needs- a good kick in the loincloth.
You can grab He-Man: The Most Powerful Game in the Universe on the App store right here for .99 USD.
Skeletor is the greatest villain ever. This is not up for debate.
Yes, this is completely accurate. Dissenters will be dealt with appropriately. Also good (but not as great)- Trap Jaw, Tri-Clops, Hordak and like a hudred other MOTU characters.
Still prefer Arcdos in Tabaluga. A animated snowman versus a fire breathing dragon, seems fair…
