Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas’ for iOS and Android game review
Rockstar has been porting old Grand Theft Auto games over to the mobile platform for the past two years. Back in 2011 they ported over the popular Grand Theft Auto III, which was followed by Grand Theft Auto: Vice City in 2012.
Last year, Rockstar ported over the much awaited Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, one of the most popular and critically-acclaimed games in the series, over to iOS and Android (with a Windows Phone 8 version arriving
later). Today we will be taking a closer look at this game.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on mobile is a direct port of the original, which means all the original story and gameplay content is present as is. The game follows the story of Carl ‘CJ’
Johnson in the fictional city of Los Santos in San Andreas. You control the character in a third person view and you can move around freely in the city. You can walk, run, jump, drive a car or ride a bike, punch, shoot and run over people just as you’d in any other GTA game. San Andreas even added the ability to
swim for the first time in the series.
You can either choose to roam around the world freely or take part in one of the missions in the game. Once you finish a mission, you can choose when you start the next one or just continue roaming around. To save the game, you will have to go to CJ’s apartment and then save it to one of the save slots (the game also supports two cloud slots if you login with a Rockstar account).
As you play the game, you also level up certain abilities, such as swimming, combat, cycling, etc., which makes you better at them (for example you won’t fall off easily from a bike). You also have to keep a tab on what you eat
and how much you eat. If you don’t eat enough you will be running low on enerygy. If you eat too much, you get fat and slower. You can also go to the gym in the game to workout and stay
fit.
As a player you can also go to stores and purchase clothes for yourself or go get a haircut. You can switch between purchased clothes from your house. You will also find other characters commenting on your personal appearance.
Now coming to the mobile port, Rockstart has once again done a commendable job in optimizing the controls for the screen. You have a set of buttons on the right for functions such as getting into a vehicle, driving, and attack. On the left, you can either have a virtual joystick or arrow keys for moving around. You can control the camera by swiping on the screen.
The gameplay is obviously very good, which is why it was so well received when the game released on the PS2 back in 2004. The gameplay stands the test of time well and even today you can expect to have good time with it, assuming you are fan of the GTA gameplay. The game is not without its share of violence, racism, s*xism and general political incorrectness, which has been a longstanding tradition of the series. If you’re fine with that sort of thing then you will love this game.
Graphics and Sound
Visually, Rockstar has updated the game with dynamic and detailed shadows, greater draw distance, richer color palette, enhanced character and car models, which makes it the best looking version of the game till date. Not to mention, it also runs at native resolutions on high resolution displays such as the Retina display on the iPad and the Nexus 10.
