Watch Dogs 2

Mobile reference to the hit sci-fi game

This mobile Watch Dogs 2 app is a free-to-use reference that gives you quick information about the hit 2016 action-adventure game of the same name. Read about the game’s overall premise and plot, get to know the main characters, and receive tips about playing the game. Although it directly uses the same name, this Watch Dogs 2 app is not a mobile port of the game nor is it an official companion app from the developers. It is an independent project to help players out.

Learn more about the hacking game

Watch Dogs 2 is an action-adventure video game set in a fictionalized version of the San Francisco Bay Area. Players control Marcus Holloway, a young hacker with the ability to manipulate the city's infrastructure. The game combines stealth, hacking, and open-world exploration as players navigate a vibrant and dynamic city, using hacking skills to uncover conspiracies and fight against oppressive surveillance.

However, once you open this app, you are greeted with a poor-quality copy of the game poster. The guide comes with an intuitively accessible toolbar, although it ends there. Most of the buttons available do not offer the correct information. For example, Weapons show the game’s premise instead of actual in-game weapons available.

An incomplete project

While it has the noble intention of providing a handy guide for hacker-players, this Watch Dogs 2 app is far from being useful. The layout is already intuitive, and different aspects of the game are easy to access. However, it needs a better home screen arrangement and the most important part of all, the information it promises to the users.
