Egg Punch
SCORE: 83
Egg Punch is a cute little idea for a
game. You play a little bird who has had his feathers stolen. He gets
back into the egg, and rolls around. The rolling is done in a mini golf
area. Ultimately Egg Punch is a mini golf game. The goal is to collect
back the birdies feathers. Which is a rather fun endeavor for an
iPhone/iPod Touch game.
The graphics in Egg Punch are of the cel shaded variety. This style of
graphics has never looked right to me personally. There are various
bright colors used, and the images are safe for the entire family. Like
a golf ball, the main bird in Egg Punch bounces off walls, and other
objects. Different worlds have different themes which helps with the
needed variety.
The music in Egg Punch is pleasant. I enjoyed listening to Egg Punch
while I played it. Certain special effect sounds brought a smile to my
face. It was a fun and fresh experience to play Egg Punch. The guide
line (where the egg is going to roll) helps players of all ages and
gaming maturity levels. Cool is another word that some have used to
describe the audio in Egg Punch.
Egg Punch includes fifty-four levels in it at this time. I would expect
more in the future. there are also multiple items that can be unlocked.
This is done by spending the coins on them. The same goes for unlocking
additional worlds. I found that I had to completely replay the entire
game to earn enough coins to get to the third world. Which hampered the
flow of the game.
The previously mentioned guide really helps players see where their shot
will go. The biggest problem with Egg Punch is I could not look around,
and getting stuck behind certain objects can hamper the vision. Egg
Punch is kind to players and lets them take as many shots as possible to
get into the hole. This encourages exploration to earn all the feathers
in a level.
The core lesson in Egg Punch is learning angles, and speed. Some shots
require more of a finesse touch. Other areas require the player power
through. Learning when and where to use which strategy is part of the
joy of playing Egg Punch. I like this idea for a franchise, and hope to
see sequels in the future. It was a pleasure for me to play and review
Egg Punch.
