Artificial Life have released Pandorum for iPhone and iPod Touch, based on the horror flick of the same name.

The game looks like a cross between Doom 3 and Resident evil. You awaken on a desolate spaceship, with no memory of who you are or why you are here. The game offers 5 levels of 3rd person shooting action, taking out alien monsters in full 3D. Graphically it features some nice look models and textures, but looks to suffer from some frame-rate issues, but we’ll have to see for ourselves when we get hands-on. As the title suggests it features effects that play tricks on your mind as you roam the empty corridors of the ship. Pandorum is out now for $3.99, check out the full feature list below, as well as screens and video.
