Appy Entertainment FaceFighter Review
From Appy Entertainment, the creator of Appy Newz, comes a new exciting application called FaceFighter. Gameplay for this game was directed by Emmanuel Valdez who is known for creating the popular game Ready 2 Rumble. The game is simple yet very creative and fun for everyone. You can choose to fight Big Ben, an in game character, or choose to create your own characters using your stored photos on your device or your built in camera. It is extremely easy to create a fighter, all you have to do is choose an image and resize it within the guidelines given. Once that is complete you can start fighting! Select a difficulty anywhere from “Apply Slappy” to Hard and its time to fight!
The gameplay is simple just tap any of the four options given including punch, kick, and block to fight your opponent. When you damage your opponent funny graphics will appear on their face such as bruises, missing teeth, and a broken nose. Everytime you throw a punch or kick you get those famous comic book type sayings like kapow flashed in the background. The graphics are funny especially if you are using a created character. The gameplay yet simple is very fun and addicting. As you continue to play and hurt your opponent you will gain a special ability which is indicated at the bottom of the screen. Press the glowing circle to enter that special ability and use a tool such as a wrench to KO your opponent. The health gauge is located at the top under the fighter’s name and once you or your opponent’s gauge is drained the game is over. Your score is then saved to try and beat later.
The game is fun but could use some more features even though the ability to create a character is endless there is still some things missing. There should be more of a selection of in game characters and not just Big Ben as well as more then just tapping a button to fight. But for the price the game is well worth it. You will be spending plenty of time making characters and beating up your friends while laughing doing it. This game is fun and very creative.
The Loop Blog gives FaceFighter an 8/10 stars. You can buy FaceFighter in the App Store for $.99
