Summary

I can’t believe I am writing this but what we have here is a competitive gotcha machine-style face-off! You play as a character that can move all around the screen and you smash these balls to break them and rewards fall out, use your traction beam and get the rewards into your chute to win! The only thing is you have an opponent and they can be Ai in the campaign, local players from Hot potato, or online thanks to friends and ranked modes. I mean as you could probably guess the game has a short life in a single play, and a lot of replay value in multiplayer but again it’s all very limited more because it’s a Gimmick. Gimmicks wear off after a while but that doesn’t mean you should discount it, far from it, I urge you to try it just because it is a competitive gotcha game!

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
