Flappy Bird, the most downloaded game and immediately withdrawn from the market, served to remind us that mobile games must not be complex, with console graphics or with articulated stories, but above all they must be fun, fast and simple, to be played in downtime, to kill expectations and to release some tension and stress. In this article, unlike usual, we are talking about a single game, which, however, really deserves a special article.
It is Punch Quest, a game that everyone will love, even those who have never been interested in games, one of the few that really should be installed on every Android smartphone or tablet, on iPhone or iPad .
Punch Quest is a game that mixes three genres, that of arcade fighting games like Final Fight or Double Dragon, horizontal scrolling shooter platform games like Metal Slug and runner games like Temple Run or Subway Surfers .
The warrior goes on alone and hits the enemies and monsters with his punches that give him the impetus to go faster.
You can punch only by touching the screen, touching the right side for the straight punch, touching the left to make a punch by jumping.
If you punch a skeletal monster, the skull will blow up and hit other enemies behind it.
In addition to the enemies, in the destructive action that dominates the game and that will be a nerve discharge, you can also punch the things you encounter during the forward race, including torches and piles of skulls, which explode with a disruptive effect.
The more punches you throw and hit, the more you will be able to enjoy bonuses and power-ups to empower and recharge your energy.
In Punch Quest, however, you must not only run with a spur, you must also stop every now and then to parry the blows of the enemies who can also hit first.
To stop and stay in a defensive position, you have to touch the screen with two fingers.
The control system is the strong point of Punch Quest, easy, fun, which does not require you to hit a specific button and which uses the entire screen as a controller.
The fights give a lot of satisfaction especially when you discover the power of the shots and the variety of special moves.
During the game you can also meet a boss, that is, a bigger and more powerful monster that will have to be knocked out repeatedly.
During the game it is also possible to transform into particular animal creatures in mini paintings in which to make as many points as possible.
Finally, there is a mission system to get cash rewards when you complete and the character can be enhanced and customized by paying with the virtual currency that is earned during the games.
Punch Quest is certainly the funniest game of the moment, among the best mobile games that can be found, not new, but spectacular and only recently available for free.
Punch Quest can be downloaded free for Android and iPhone from their respective stores.
