<p>After the critical acclaim of <em>Alien: Isolation</em> on PC/console,  I imagine there’s plenty of mobile gamers who’d want a decent <em>Alien</em>-esque experience on mobile on their smartphones or tablets. The real question is whether or not the recently announced <em>Alien: Blackout</em> is the droid you were looking for.</p>
<p>This game was teased last week after a trademark filing was spotted last year. Many people thought it might be a full-on <em>Alien: Isolation</em> sequel. I imagine those people are a bit disappointed.</p>
<p>Still, on paper <em>Blackout</em> doesn’t seem that bad so far. It’s billed as being a ‘survival/horror’ game, where you play as Amanda Ripley as she attempts to guide the crew of damaged space station to safety, out of the way of a rampant xenomorph.</p>

<p>The choices you make in the game, whether to sacrifice certain crew-members or try to use the station’s damaged systems, will affect the outcome. Pocket Gamer even thinks it’ll be a premium game, given that the action is spread across seven distinct levels. It’s not your typical freemium structure, at any rate, but we’ll have to wait and see.</p>
<p><em>Blackout</em> is being developed by FoxNext Games, D3 Go! Whose previous claims to fame is some licensed <em>Puzzle Ques</em>t titles. Rival Games, from Finland, are also helping out, and you may know them from <em>Thief of Thieves</em>.</p>
<p>No word on a release date as of yet, but we know it’s coming to iTunes, Google Play and the Amazon App Store.</p>
