Hey guys! Lets face it, I have a soft spot for simple games, and Roid Rage pretty much nailed it. Roid Rage is available on Android and it is made by Butterscotch Shenanigans. The logic behind the game is simple, pick a spaceship, a character and try not to crash on asteroids and die! This mixture of Flappy Bird frustration and control confusion together with the space theme is bound to succeed.Oh, did I mention the rage that comes with the game?
"...I have a soft spot for simple games, and Roid Rage pretty much nailed it."
I believe there is a huge market for these extremely simple games, people that wait in lines, commute to work, and people that like to keep things simple when playing a game. Simple, pure frustration at its greatest. Starting off in deep space you take control of your spaceship and try to collect juice while avoiding asteroids at all costs. However, the charm of the game is that you know for sure that you will fail. ALWAYS. The only thing that keeps you playing is the hope that you might achieve a higher score, or simply enjoy watching your character die (shame on you!).
"...the charm of the game is that you know for sure that you will fail."
Games like Roid Rage are charming in their own way. They may not appeal to all but many will definitely get addicted to them. Go ahead and start exploring deep space, or crash into asteroids, your choice.
SCORE: 4 OUT OF 5
