Flick Kick Field Goal (iPhone)
Feb 19th
Just Sudden Death mode, no other game types got a look in. Just kick after kick after kick. It should get old a lot faster than it does. Didn’t beat my own high score, so the frustration was there, but it didn’t get dull.
Anyway, much as I’d love to write a long, worthwhile entry about the game, it’s just kicking a ball over some goal posts again and again, so there’s not a whole lot to say. I can tell you that it’s an excellent game, but I’m not getting any insights into the nature of gaming or the meaning of life from it.

Hmpf. This is one of those games where I beat my own high score, feel very proud of myself, then go to check the global leaderboards and cry.
I’ve tried all the game modes now and they all offer something different and worthwhile. I think Sudden Death is my favourite – there’s no stopping or starting, just kick after kick after kick. You kick the ball and if you make the kick your score goes up. If you don’t, it resets to zero. There’s no downtime at all.

This was free to celebrate the Super Bowl – hooray for the Saints! – and is one of the best freebies in a while. It’s basically Paper Toss Evolved, or something, where you, well, flick the screen to kick the ball over the field and into the goal. Hence, you know, the name.
It feels just right, it varies the angle and wind nicely, has a good number of game modes, OpenFeint integration and is very polished indeed. If you missed it for free, bad luck, but I don’t think you’ll regret buying it. A great little quick game – it’s almost worth a spot in the dock.
