Smacky Cars app review: non-stop action

Introduction

Are you a fan of Flappy Bird? If so we've got a fun offering for you that will give you a similar feel and plenty of challenge. The Smacky Cars app can be played on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and is all about non-stop action, thrills, and challenge. One of the ways this app stands out is in its retro-style graphics that will have you feeling like you've taken a step back in time animation-wise but not in the challenge department, so don't get too comfortable!

Are You Up to the Challenge?

Do you think you've got what it takes to be successful in this challenge? What I really like here is that the game is so easy to understand and play yet it is incredibly addictive and challenging. When you first launch it you’re taken back by the retro-style graphics and for some reason you just assume the game is going to be easy or a bit of a joke actually. That could not be further from the truth with this app. The developer describes the app as a "pixel art race car game," which is a wonderful way to describe it. You will be driving your car, racing around as you try your best to avoid all the speeding cars. What's great is that the app uses one touch controls to make life really easy.

This app has recently been updated to include a number of enhancements and some minor bug fixes. It currently has 4.5 out of five stars from users who seem to be loving all this game has to offer.

 

Driving Your Car

There is nothing difficult or confusing when it comes to gameplay and the controls. In fact this is a great example of a game that can be played but adults and kids. As mentioned above this game is very similar to Flappy Bird but it uses cars instead. In order to dodge other cars just tap left or right to control your vehicle. At the end of your game feel free to share a score you're particularly proud of. Your friends may just try to beat your personal best and start a whole competition rolling. This app supports the game center.
