Catch the Fly is the latest in the popular catapult genre.\u00c2\u00a0 Frogs are sent flying to knock down the barriers erected by the flies\u00c2\u00a0 in charmingly designed outdoors scenes.<\/p>\n
The game plays with the same principals as most catapult physics games.\u00c2\u00a0 The frog projectile is aimed at the structure ( which is just off the screen), and then released.\u00c2\u00a0 When the frog flies or rolls into the structure, the pieces tumble down (or don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t!).\u00c2\u00a0 If a repeat attack is needed, it is helped by the faint guideline that shows the direction and height of the last aim.\u00c2\u00a0 The controls work smoothly, and the frog goes where aimed.\u00c2\u00a0 My only quibble with this aspect was that I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem to adjust the speed of flight.\u00c2\u00a0 Otherwise, Catch the Fly works well.<\/p>\n
There is no story line to\u00c2\u00a0Catch the Fly, which is a shame.\u00c2\u00a0 The artwork is delightful, with bright colors and attractive backyard scenes. This lends itself well to an amusing plot, but sadly that expected plot never comes.<\/p>\n
The animations are fun, as well.\u00c2\u00a0 The frog\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s legs stretch out long as he jumps.\u00c2\u00a0 He rolls into a ball to crash, and makes a funny splash of frog colored goo as he crashes.\u00c2\u00a0 The bugs have buggy sounds, but don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do anything particularly spectacular, though, like all the art, they look good.<\/p>\n
The music borders on the painful, as it is an extremely bouncy and fast tune.\u00c2\u00a0 There is no ability to shut off just the music, so to hear the fun game sounds, one has to put up with the music.\u00c2\u00a0 Hopefully that will be corrected soon.<\/p>\n
The biggest disappointment of the game is that it is advertised as free, but once it is downloaded it becomes apparent that only the first five levels of the first scene are available.\u00c2\u00a0 All ten scenes, a total 250 levels, can be unlocked for $0.99, but it felt like false advertising to me.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>Catch the Fly has great graphics and standard catapult game play.\u00c2\u00a0 A plot line as engaging as the art work would turn this average game into a fantastic one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Catch the Fly is the latest in the popular catapult genre.\u00c2\u00a0 Frogs are sent flying to knock down the barriers erected by the flies\u00c2\u00a0 in charmingly designed outdoors scenes.
