Background
MoreGames Entertainment, the developer of Turbo Reaction, is a new company to
the PPC developer scene. At the time of this review, Turbo Reaction is the only
game they have released. Has MoreGames made a game that will turbo its way to
the top of the heap, or will the public have a negative reaction to it? Read
on to find out.
Graphics
Turbo Reaction’s graphics are satisfactory, if unimpressive. The menus
and screens are cartoony and a bit rough, but for the purpose of the game, they
are adequate. The colors are bright and the shapes the user must tap are amusing
enough to compensate for the lack of graphical grandeur. The concept of the
game is not graphically intensive, and in the end, it’s not a big deal.
Sound
The music in Turbo Reaction is another story. The in-game songs are composed
of obnoxious, cliché video game beeps and bops. I muted the music after
my first game. The sound effects are also poor quality. When the user taps a
balloon, low-quality pops and explosions sound.
Gameplay
There isn’t much that can be said about the gameplay. You tap the balloons
that appear on the screen. That’s it. Needless to say, the premise is
simple. Nevertheless, if you have a few spare minutes to kill, Turbo Reaction
is a nice game to have.
There are four game modes: classic, advanced, mixed, and madness.
All four seem to be different variants of the same theme. As they progress in
difficulty, the balloons begin to follow different patterns and appear with
more frequency and in greater numbers. In addition to the four game modes, the
difficulty can be set at easy, normal, hard, or impossible. Essentially, the
object of the game is to beat any prior existing high scores.
Conclusion
Turbo Reaction is a game best played in short amounts of time. If the game is
taken in small doses, the replay value is high. However, Turbo Reaction is not
a game that can be played for more than a few minutes at a time. Ultimately,
it would be more appealing if it were $5 instead of $9. But if a challenge of
reaction time and stylus-eye coordination appeals to you, Turbo Reaction is
a fair buy.
Pros:
- Fun
gameplay if taken in small doses
Cons:
- Poor sound
- Simple game
premise
- A bit expensive
given the game’s concept
