IGN App For Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review: IGN attempts to provide the definitive guide for Skyrim

Reviews

Introduction

The IGN App For Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is attempting a giant feat. Let's face it: if you've played Skyrim, you love it, and if you love it you understand packing every item, person, mission, and dragons in one app is nearly impossible. But if anyone could do it, it would be IGN.

A Slick Layout And The Biggest Wiki Ever

The IGN App For Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim provides you with everything from the latest News, Videos, Wallpapers and even a Skill Tree Planner. It provides you with the exact layout and animation that appears in Skyrim so you can now save time and, even better, distribute your achieved skills the way you want.

The actual amount of information in this app is truly mind-bending. This becomes apparent as soon as you open the app's Wiki. Everything, and I sincerely mean everything, contained in Skyrim's incredibly expansive map is here, including maps and walkthroughs for the DLC. Utilizing the Wiki is surprisingly easy, as everything is categorized. This way you will be able to navigate through every mission, environment, or side quest with ease.

Sifting Through All This Information Just Got Easier

If the Wiki seems a little daunting, but you still want the same information, try the Interactive Maps. The IGN App For Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's addition of Interactive Maps takes the user friendliness of this app to the next level.

It includes every map from Skyrim to Solstheim. Simply choose the map you wish and tap around the Marker indicators. A Marker is anything in the game, be it a person, item, mission, side quest, or building. Tap the indicator twice and a drop down list of all the Markers will appear; simply tap the marker and you will be shown a brief explanation and/or walkthrough. The maps are also completely customizable to aid that player in finding whatever they require. The Interactive Maps in the IGN App for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the best addition you could give any player.
