Iron Sight is a 3D turn based action/strategy game, based in a post-apocalyptic world. The player has the option of picking between two different factions, the Corporation or Rebellion. The Corporation is essentially the governmental control agency or military/ oppressor and the Rebellion is just that; a group of rebels/freedom fighters battling "the man". During different missions, enemies need to be taken out using a mech-like vehicle.
Iron Sight offers single and multiplayer gameplay modes. Within single player mode, the user has the option of playing single missions or partaking in a campaign. Within the multiplayer modes the user is given the option of 'hot-seat' and internet gameplay modes. Hot seat allows two players to play versus each other on the same device. Internet mode allows the user to create a versus game with others via WiFi or join an existing game, playing against real people anywhere in the world.
Movement is controlled by a virtual D-pad on the touch screen as with the other controls of the game (shooting/aiming).
