I was surprised to see Mini Squadron show up for the BlackBerry Q10 before the Z10, but with the more traditional BlackBerry possibly being the better selling of the two devices this year I suppose it makes sense. *Update - Z10 support is now available*
Anyway, it's an awesome air battle game. You control your plane (of which there are over 50 to unlock) using an on-screen joypad on the bottom left of the display. Over on the right is the button to fire your guns and that's the controls - kept nice and simple.
The aim of the game is to shoot down all the enemy planes - who will also try and shoot you down. There are some bonuses to pick up along the way but the whole game experience seems to flow beautifully on the Q10.
Flying your plane too high will make it stall and crashing into the ground clearly isn't a good move. The game is accompanied by some nice classical music which kind of mellows out the whole busy combat situation.
Priced at £2.00/$2.99 I'd say that if you like a good old shoot 'em-up then this one is well worth the money.
