Shooter is a fun game that does exactly what the name indicates- It lets you use the iPhone or iPod Touch to shot random objects. The graphics are decent and "cartoonish" enough to keep this from being any more violent than one of those carnival shooting booths where you try to win the big stuffed animals. One big difference here, however, is that with Shooter the aiming is actually accurate!

The first time you start the game it asks you to hold still while it calibrates the device’s accelerometer. From there you get to move the device to aim and tap the gun in the lower right corner to fire. After the six-shooter is emptied you need to tap the button on the lower left to reload. along with the floating bottles that are the main targets there are also random objects. Shooting the ice-cream cone, for example, gets you extra points. Shoot the fly, however and a flyswatter comes at you and locks you out of the game for a few valuable seconds.

The goal of the game is to reach a certain number of points within the allotted time. (Shoot the clocks that float by along the way and you lose even more precious seconds.) It is harder than it looks!!

Speaking of looks…

 

Quick Take

Value:  High
Would I Buy Again: Yes 
Learning Curve:  Medium
Who is it for:  People who like cartoonish shooting games
What I like:  Good use of accellerometer, polished and nicely done
What I Don’t: After a bit both the game and music may become old… but, at least for now, it is a fun game.

Final Statement:
  Fun game. Worth the $1.99 if this is your kind of game.
