Iron Man 3 (iOS/Android) Tips and tricks guide: Hints, cheats and strategies


Iron Man 3 is a brand new endless flying game based on the long awaited superhero movie of the same name. It even includes a storyline and appearances from an animated version of Tony Stark, and it’s one of the most well-done and detailed games in the history of the endless genre. The goals are still the same (get as far as you can, collect Stark Credits, kill enemies) and the game can get very difficult at a times, so read on for some tips and tricks!

The default control scheme for the game is not very sensitive, so you have to tilt your phone almost completely sideways in order to collect the Stark Credits that are on the far sides of the course. To change this, when you are in the main menu, go to the options screen and adjust the sensitivity. Turn it all the way up if you have a steady hand, or leave a bit of slack. You can even put it to touch mode, where you swipe to make Iron Man go back and forth.



When enemies appear on the screen, you can either tap or hold in order to zap them. Tapping is of almost no use, though, because holding your finger on the screen does so much more damage to them. Swipe over all of your enemies to kill them quickly and at the same time, Fruit Ninja style.

However, when a boss character appears, their attacks on you will be much more difficult to avoid, so hold your finger for short periods of time, and play defensively rather than on the offense. It will take longer to kill the boss, but you will take a LOT less damage overall during the battle.


Check out the stats for all of the power suits before you decide which ones to spend your hard earned Stark Credits and Iso-8 on them. Some of the suits are expensive, but don’t really do much in the way of helping you. Your best bet with the suits is to go for the ones directly below your current suit (the immediate upgrade) because the immediate upgrades are FAR more powerful in every single statistical category.
