Your mission is to find Dr. Savain and restore order to the biosphere before the exiled arrive, enabling them to land safely.Grokion is an iconic action-adventure game inspired by the dark explorations of Metroid and intense platforming of Mega Man. Entwining brilliant modern game-play mechanics, physics-based puzzles and pure old-school styling, it delivers a nostalgic yet progressive gaming experience.__________________________________VISIT US: grokion.comFOLLOW US: twitter.com/dododominationLIKE US: facebook.com/grokion Information Seller: Genre:Action, Adventure Release:Jun 05, 2010 Updated:Nov 30, -0001 Version: Size:0.0 TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating: (20) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,486 2 36 Houston, TX #2 undeadcow, Feb 25, 2011 I've heard a lot of good things about Grokion... which is now mine.

Coldar Well-Known Member Dec 26, 2008 2,457 5 38 Upstate NY/USA #4 Coldar, Feb 25, 2011 Yea, a buddy recommended this or I'd probably'd missed it. After playing it some I'm even more appreciated of getting this game. Definitely something to pickup. ninjackid Well-Known Member May 27, 2010 9,380 2 38 #5 ninjackid, Feb 25, 2011 EVERYONE GET THIS NOW!!! Seriously, I bought it and I don't regret it. ArugulaZ Well-Known Member Feb 27, 2011 48 0 0 #6 ArugulaZ, Feb 27, 2011 There are some things that bother me about this game... I'll just say that Metroid's in no danger of being dethroned as the king of side-scrolling science-fiction shooters. Nevertheless, for free, it's hard to complain. The 360 degree aiming is a pretty nifty feature; rotating your android's arm reminds me of the old Tron arcade game, and I'll admit that it would have really come in handy in Metroid. syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #7 syntheticvoid, Mar 3, 2011 Had this since it came out...
