Game alerts

Hi, To display alerts such as "Game objectives" "Game Over", "Replay" etc, what will be the best way to do it? Im against using uialerts as it is not graphically in theme with my game. I've seen many games display their own customized alerts, but im not sure how its done. Some help will be really useful to me. Thanks!

 

I tried doing it with uiimageview. It works well, but the problem is, the buttons underneath the "Get ready" can be clicked. How do i make sure that nothing underneath the 'get ready' note works until the player taps to begin. Thanks.

 

Thanks for all your replies. I managed to solve the problem. Here's what i did:

- Created a uiview by code
- Placed an uiimage on top of it
