Cyclops Ballz - Review - Spencer Noblat1959

We ran across an absurd game over at the Windows Phone Marketplace, Cyclops Ballz. Cyclops Ballz is a boxing game of sorts that puts you in an arena, armed only with a soccer brawl, to face a broad variety of rivals.

Cyclops Ballz has three game modes, seven arenas and 20-one opponents. The modes intermission down as follows:

Arcade Mode has a dodge ball feel to information technology in that the object of the game is to pummel your opponent with the ball. Yous need to go along the ball in play and if information technology bounces past you, you'll loose ane of your three lives. Loose all iii and the game'due south over. You lot can submit your scores to an online leader board afterward or endeavour again to see if yous tin do ameliorate.

The only nit with Arcade Manner is that it would exist nice to change your target and arena. Pummeling the same target can go old after the first fifty points (and yeah, I made it to 50 points).

Career Fashion is a tournament game that has a soccer game feel (or perchance volleyball without the net) to it in that you endeavor to kicking the ball past your opponent while preventing them to do the same. During the match, boost items will appear to help you out. For each passed brawl, you earn a point and the first to reach five points wins the lucifer. Should you lot win the match, you motion to the next of 7 rounds. In that location are 6 tournament levels (progressive) to compete in.

Too, as you win, y'all earn credits that can be spent in the shop (accessible through your inventory bill of fare before/after each match) for boosts. I liked the Career Mode only the game doesn't relieve your progress once yous exit. If you make it through the commencement 4 matches, when you return to the game yous should render to the point y'all left. Right?

Multi-Histrion Mode is a play-n-pass game where y'all compete in the tourney games and pass the game to a friend to see who scores the highest.

Cyclops Ballz

Game play is elementary. Swipe the screen at the brawl to strike it. The faster the swipe, the faster the brawl flies downwardly the screen. Cyclops Ballz is a graphically well presented game that is challenging (the CPU will kicking your butt) and the game is somewhat addictive. While I think Cyclops Ballz has room for comeback, every bit is, information technology's a very nice game for your Windows Telephone.

There is a gratis trial version of Cyclops Ballz available to let yous attempt before you buy and the full version runs $2.99. You lot can discover both here (opens Zune) at the Market.
