SmackBOTS 1.4.1 iPhone iPod Touch | 6,64 MB
Remember Rock'em Sock'em Robots, the old game where a couple of robots try to knock each other's heads off? SmackBOTS is that, on the iPhone. The concept is still just as simple and the amount of frustration is just as high, but the game's been given some shiny graphics, a little story, and taken out of the old plastic boxing locale. When I say the concept is simple, I mean it. Before rounds, you're treated to some short story pieces in comic book style. The gist is you're a top-secret government robot being combat tested against other models.
That's actually more than half the storyline (sorry?). During combat, your only method of controlling your fighting machine is to hit your iPhone. Tapping the left or right side of the screen makes your robot throw a punch with its left or right hand, respectively and each tap automatically makes your robot walk. Matches are played in best 2 out of 3 rounds, and in order to successfully win a bout you'll need to tap your iPhone rapidly, and hard. The game doesn't like to register the soft touches. While this violence on technology may seem theraputic to some people, I got a little nervous about my baby after I realized my fingertips were hurting.
