Random
Just as for pool, you cannot predict the direction of the ball after several bounces. So the gamer is mainly luck, randomness, and only a bit of strategy.
Or did I miss something ?
Reviews for "FireFlies"
Okay in the beginning
The game is okay in the beginning. At the higher levels, though, victory is almost completely a factor of luck--of the fireflies just happening to be clustered in an advantageous way. So, you end up making the same shot dozens of times until it finally takes. It's pretty frustrating when you keep missing a level by one firefly, over and over and over again. Bleh.
Good, but tried too hard...
Good graphics. Smooth, clean interface. Relaxing, ambient music. What went wrong?
I'll tell you; it tried too hard to be original and genre breaking, and within this, ultimately brought itself down from what could have been a great game.
As a puzzle game, it relied far too much on luck. It is impossible to predict where the fireflies will move. Levels six and up removed any sort of strategy you seemingly implemented into the first five. It doesn't matter where you fired, the fireflies would often move out of the way, their movements being far too erratic and random. Requiring roughly 80-90% of the fireflies to be hit to complete a single level in two shots makes the game irritating and not appealing at all (and appeal is what you're looking for, aye?).
As a casual game, FAR too challenging. It's rare to find a game with such a simple concept get so difficult. It just doesn't feel right.
It's a good game with a good concept, but the overdone difficulty and focus on getting lucky makes it fall short.

I don't like the game idea because you can't really control what you are doing after the first bounce.But the graphics are not too bad.
interesting and fun
