Whack It! app review: take out your frustration

Introduction

We've found a fun way to take out your daily frustration and that's with an app that allows you to take part in a little "whacking" action. The Whack It! app can be played on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and brings you all the fun of the Whack a Mole game on your mobile device. The twist with this one is that instead of whacking moles like you normally would you'll get to whack some of today’s most notorious and often annoying celebrities such as Lindsay Lohan and Justin Bieber, just to name a few.

Whack Celebrities on the Head

How many times have you felt like just bonking some of today's celebrities on the head? There are that select few that are just over-exposed, constantly in trouble with the law, and quite frankly, get on a lot of people's nerves. Here's your chance to play a whack a mole styled game as their heads pop up out of the holes. As they do you'll need to tap on them to "whack it." Of course this game is all about entertainment and fun but in that sense it certainly delivers.

This is a brand-new release and with that said it doesn't have any updates or a customer rating as of yet. You will find customer comments however with players pointing out just how much fun the app is. While it may not have the best graphics or most challenging gameplay these don’t act as negatives at all.

 

The Gameplay Experience

The gameplay is very simple: just tap on the celebrity head to earn points. What I find difficult is that it moves really fast and you need to get a precise hit in order to earn the points. If not, your game will be over before you know it. The celebrities you can play with are Justin Bieber, Lindsay Lohan, Charlie Sheen, Paris Hilton, OJ Simpson, and a rather forlorn-looking cat. The app supports Game Center so you can compare your score to others.

The sound effects and graphics are mediocre, nothing spectacular but really it’s not meant to be a high-tech game. I do wish there were a few more game options available, perhaps ways to customize the app a bit more or choose your difficulty level. I just think that after time this one starts to lose its appeal because it begins to feel repetitive.

 

Pros and Cons

Pros

Final Words
