Stan Lee's 'Verticus' Starts With Awesomeness, Then Falls Flat

What I like most about Verticus is that it is well-done take on the endless runner genre of apps like "Temple Run" and "TheEndApp." Instead of running through streets or trails, you get to fall like a skydiver and move through 360 degrees. The graphics are smooth, evocative of comic book art, and controls are responsive. I like controlling the falling guy -- to a point.Verticus is a game for iPhone and iPad by Moonshark. It is available for US$1.99 from the iOS App Store.

When I saw that comic book legend Stan Lee was involved in a new iOS game released last week, "Verticus," I was stoked enough to drop $1.99 and give it a try. After all, we're talking about Stan Lee here, and if you don't appreciate his contribution to the entertainment world -- co-creator of Spider-Man, Hulk, X-Men, Iron Man, and more -- a new iOS game won't mean much to you.
