Features
Splash Cars for iPhone reminds us of Pako. It has the same kind of isometric flair, even though the environments are different and everything is lush and rich, and just full of details. The colors are bright and vivid and hence it stands out more than in Pako. The animations are slick and smooth. The soundtrack is fun to listen to. Splash Cars for iPhone is based on levels wherein each stage is unlocked by reaching a certain threshold of paint coverage in the previous level. The cars leave a trail of paint behind them and this adds splashes of color to the otherwise grey and dull environments. Each car has a limit to the fuel in its tanks and if you’re out of fuel, you can’t paint anymore. But collecting gas canisters scattered around the map help you get some fuel back in the tank. Coins and stamps can be spent on new cars. You can also unlock other things by covering a certain percentage of each map with paint, and this includes new cars and bonus stamps. Different cars have different fuel capacity and speed. So having better cars as you progress in the game is vital to your success. Of course, you got to avoid the police cars as you paint.
The controls of Splash Cars for iPhone are simple enough. Tap on the screen to get the car moving at full speed. Use the button at the bottom left to turn left and the one at bottom right to go right. There is no brake. So you got to be careful with your turns as crashing on some object will damage the car, and slows you down if it crosses a certain threshold. The ultimate objective is to paint the environment as you drive. But it becomes a challenge due to fuel limitation and police cars chasing you. Once you achieve the percentage goals, you can either continue if there is fuel left or hit a button to finish the stage. The game has its own ranking system wherein you earn new power-ups/boosts after reaching a certain number of miles with your cars.
Conclusion
Splash Cars for iPhone has great replay-ability owing to game center integration and for new cars to do better on old stages. The game also has got iCloud game save support so that you don’t lose continuity irrespective of the iOS device you use. The graphics is decent, while the controls are intuitive. The game play is challenging. Overall, a fun arcade style car game that is fun to play and a decent time killer.
