Lego: Hero Factory Now Available for Free for the iPhone and iPad

Lego has released the game Hero Factory based on the series of movies where Lego heroes defend the universe. With  multiple weapons at your disposal, this Lego game looks promising, and it is free for the iPhone and iPad.

It features:

• A hideous collection of villains and monsters have broken out of a high security prison contained within and have fled to all corners of the galaxy.
• As the Heroes battle to capture the villains, it soon becomes apparent that the breakout is merely a way to distract the Heroes from the actions of the evil Black Phantom. He has stayed behind to destroy the Assembly Tower and has triggered an automatic shutdown of our core systems.
• Zib has been immobilized and contact with many of the Heroes has been cut off. They are stranded in hostile territory!
• You must help Rocka use all of his training and expertise to complete his mission and reach the security panel in the Control Room. Take Hero Factory out of lock down and let’s get our people home!
• During combat, keep an eye out for weapon upgrades and collectables to boost your firepower and gain access to secret areas. Keep collecting and you could be rewarded with achievement codes for use in the full game at http://www.HeroFactory.com/ 

The app is free and available as an universal app (iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch) in the App Store [iTunes Link].
