We have been looking forward to both of these releases and were caught off guard when they appeared in the NZ AppStore this morning. Call of Cthulu: The Wasted Land is a turnbased strategy/ action roleplaying game set in World War I. Shogun is a classic bullet hell shoot em up inspired by Japanese arcade games. Both will come out at 11:00 p.m. U.S. time. Here is the info from each respective iTunes page:

“Shogun: Rise Of The Renegade is a shoot’em up inspired by japanese arcade games of the 90’s.
We created this game as a tribute to the old-school manic shooters (aka bullet hell) but enhanced with a modern, touch based game-interface and easy to read graphics.
The first mission is free, others are available via in-app purchases.”
