“Archetype delivers one of the most robust, beautiful, and most importantly fun FPS experiences that can be had on the iPhone.” – Touch Arcade
“The deathmatches are exciting, the controls are brilliant, and the graphics are excellent (they’re even optimized for iPhone 4)… Any way you slice it, if you like deathmatch-style first-person shooters, you’ll love Archetype.” – Slide To Play
“Keeps the 5-on-5 multiplayer action fast, frenzied, and remarkably good” – GamesRadar
“Archetype lives up to the hype.” – TUAW
