Reviews for "Air Hockey Challenge"

Addictive and enthhralling

I quite liked this game for the playability of it. I'm a big fan of the real air hockey games that you find at amusement arcades and this game is a close approximation of the real thing. I think that there are a few areas which could be improved, but we can certainly address them here:

I think that the 'centre point' of the puck shouldn't indicate that the puck has reached the goal, since some of the moves I made would have saved it in real life, but they became goals. I'm just bitter, really :P

Also, the mosuse semnsitivity is an issue - sometimes, I move to get the puck away and it moves, putting the puck in my own goal. Possibly human error, but there is no option to turn the sensitivity down at all

Agonizingly...

...simple until around the 5th stage. The level with the pink enemy, anyway. Good graphics but still the same old air hockey. Possibly some twists, upgrades, etc. would help. I never figured out what those random yellow pucks did. Probably in the instructions somewhere that I didn't read.

Not bad...

It wasn't bad, but in the end it wasn't good either. It had very polished graphics and audio as a testament to the artists talents, but the gameplay was quite buggy. The puck would frequently go faster than I could see at the slightest tap, and when I tried hitting it with some power it went backwards and I scored on myself.

The computer was surprisingly balanced nicely and played like it should, gradually increasing in skill.

Overall it wasn't bad and will provide some decent entertainment, but it takes a while to get used to the puck's seemingly random actions.

Decent.

Haven't played an online air hockey game before. Not bad at all.

Accurate

As someone who's participated in (and won) air-hockey tournaments (they actually have those, you win money and everything) I have to say this is a pretty accurate air hockey sim, complete with all the erratic motion, cheap shots and self-scoring. Very nice.
