Running agency fun at first, but it's easy to lose interest.

Men in Black 3
What's It About?
The Men in Black 3 app puts players in charge of building an MIB agency, choosing and training agents, and battling aliens in two different time periods, 1969 and 2012. A lot of the game surrounds building structures, making choices, using weapons, and killing aliens. When the aliens die, they just sort of \"poof!\" and players see green slime.
Is It Any Good?
The graphics in the Men in Black 3 app are beautiful, and navigating this game is so easy -- instructions and arrows guide or point players everywhere -- that experienced game players may find this game fun at first but quickly boring. Yet it's not completely suitable for younger players, either, with language that includes "damn" and "you're dead" and lots of weaponry, as well as in-app purchases that run from $1.99 to $99.99. That said, MIB 3 movie fans will enjoy the recognizable characters and movie references.
