"Sector 106 of Mega-City One is short of senior Street Judges and only the most experienced Judges have been reassigned to fill this shortfall…foremost among them yourself, Dredd! What begins as a routine patrol arresting juves and skysurfers, turns into a race against time, as mysterious "Voices of Dredd" find their way into the hands of the local perps. Riding your Lawmaster bike and armed with your trusty Lawgiver, you must pit yourself against Sector 106s brutal criminal underworld. Quick Dredd! The countdown has begun…"

Pros and cons of Judge Dredd: Countdown Sector 106 app for iPhone and iPad

Judge Dredd: Countdown Sector 106 app good for

If youve ever read a gamebook this is a no brainier. Great buy for any comic fan or video gamer cause the book has a lot of interactive elements. Good writing and art bring the book to life. Just a great app, I fully approve XD
This is probably the best gamebook that tin man has released yet. It has great writing and tons of choices and different paths you can choose from. My only complaint would be that they dumbed down most of the fights to a simple win a single roll to win, but the rest of the book makes up for that minor nitpick. More of this and less of the crap which was infinite universe please.
I was really enjoying reading this book. Nice come back, I almost forgot how good interactive books are!

Some bad moments

Tin Man games goes above and beyond with each release with great stories and gameplay. And now Judge Dredd!!! Absolutely amazing and well done Tin Man.
Delightful. Just wonderful all around. Very interesting story, aesthetics, and... Just buy it, lol, youll love it.
I am a huge fan of these books and they have a special place in my heart hardening back to many childhood nights with the more basic "Choose your own Adventure", "Find your Fate", "Endless Quest" and "Twist-A-Plot" books and onward to the more complex ones with dice and character sheets like "Lone Wolf", "Grail Quest", "Fighting Fantasy", "Fate Master", "Eternal Champion", "Golden Dragon", "Freeway Warrior", "Knightmare" and so many other greats! With that said, Tin man has done a great job of recapturing that feel and most of their entries have been excellent. I worried a bit with the last book that attempted to take the genre into the sci fi realms. Not that I didnt welcome the change from the typical Tolkien/D&D inspired outings, but rather the writing in the last book, while good, left me wanting. I personally think it was perhaps the challenge of both creating a story and establishing a whole new universe from scratch which ultimately made the last book suffer a bit in quality. Regardless, I still think it was a good book, but perhaps not up to the calibre I was used to from this company! Well no worries here! This is an awesome entry and I personally think the licensed theme helped to give the writer a much more focused attention on the writing quality, rather than also having to create a whole universe as well. the writer captures the tone and feel well and the book, I think, will be a great read even for non fans and a decent primer of sorts to the world and character who champions within it! So Judge Dredd fan or not, this is a this is a must buy! If you felt slightly let down by Infinite Universe (GB8), rest assured this one redeems it and in some ways feels like a better book than even their other ones! Bravo to the writer and illustrator and bravo to Tin man games for the mechanics tweaks! Post Apocalypse, Road Warrior-esque, Vampire/Werewolf or Modern Horror/Lovecraftian themes wanted in future iterations please!
This game book is just plain fun. It does a great job of capturing the setting, and giving the reader a fun experience. This is not some great work of literature by any means, but that is not what it is suppose to be. It is an action packed good time that delivers a great sci-fi experience. So grab your daystick and crack some skulls, because you are the law and nobody messes with you!
It is worth 5 bucks buy it its great this is my first game book and its awsome !!
Wow! Another game that takes years to install. Just fab, absolute rubbish. What a let down. AVOID!!!!!!!!!
