PING 1.5+
SCORE: 84
We get all kinds of interesting games to review here at Family
Friendly Gaming. Some weeks the reviewable copies just keep piling up.
Some games are good, some games are of lower quality. Everyone wants us
to write them an amazing review and make them rich. Too often I am
trying to find a nice way of giving them bad news.
In the midst of disappointment after disappointment, PING 1.5+ on the
Wii U comes in for review. I immediately took a liking to this game. The
bright colorful graphics mixed with the upbeat music caught my
attention. Then I started to play PING 1.5+. Guess what? Paul likes it.
You know like the old Life cereal commercials with that kid Mikey?
We play a dot in PING 1.5+. I know, I know. Before you run to the Wii U
to download this home console game in total excitement, let me
elaborate. The dot in PING 1.5+ must be launched toward an orange orb.
Just wait for it. I am sure there are all kinds of sarcastic comments
coming from the peanut gallery. We have to get to that said orange orb
in only so many bounces.
We can bounce off objects, and the edge of the screen in PING 1.5+. I
know the idea sounds simple enough. Think about it. You have to get
over, around, and through in under five bounces. Sounds simple until you
watch your little white dot bounce all around and miss the orange orb.
I love how PING 1.5+ contains over one hundred levels. Trust me things
start to get interesting in the second world. Did I mention you get to
take on bosses in PING 1.5+? So sorry that slipped my mind. Players have
to bounce into the boss so many times while only bouncing so many times
themselves.
I really, really like PING 1.5+. This is the kind of an app like game
that works masterfully on the Wii U. I know Nintendo has earned all
kinds of scorn in recent years for their massive blunders. Having PING
1.5+ put on the Wii U is something they have done right.
