"Friends, fun and games on your handset"
If you miss those crazy college parties, then Pong Shot Reloaded is the game for you. Imagine mixing beer with a ping pong ball on a pool table. Yes, a frat party scenario where you get into a competition of throwing balls into your opponents beer glasses and vice versa.
You can set the angle of the throw and the power. Once you hit the opponent’s glass he has to drink it up. As the glasses keep going down the difficulty increases and the one who makes the opponent’s glasses disappear first wins. Currently, this is a single person game and you play against AI (Artificial Intelligence). A number of extra points and add-ons keep popping up as you get your aim right. However, there is a time limit to finish the match or you will have to start all over again. 60 seconds for the first level match seem hard enough to finish. You get a manager called Estella, who keeps bringing new challenges for you and even if you play the same level again, the positioning of the glasses changes, keeping the element of surprise intact. Pong Shot reloaded has been developed by Manthan Studios and is available on the Blackberry App World for Rs 49. The graphics of the game are cool and the whole interface has been given a very hip and happening pub like set-up that gels well with the overall game ambience. Good fun, we think.
We tested it on the BlackBerry Torch 9810.
