Tap-Tap Rockets- 0.99 (Pixilabs)

Get ready to destroy a load of asteroids to protect your planets in Tap-Tap Rockets [$0.99-UNIVERSAL] by Pixilabs. In this game you have rockets that gravitate around a planet. Your main objective is to use the rockets to destroying the incoming asteroids to defend the well-being of your planets. You can only shoot one rocket at a time. The rocket that you will shoot will be highlighted. The shooting in this game is extremely easy. All you have to do is tap on the button on the left side of the screen to shoot. Aiming at the asteroids takes a little getting use to though. You have to time your shot just right to hit the asteroids or you'll miss it completely. Messing up your shot can really do damage to the planet your trying to protect. Each
planet has a certain amount of rings, the bigger the planet the more amount of rings it has. The rings are your shields just in case an asteroid gets past you. Once all your shields for that planet have been destroyed then that planet is gone. With the addition to asteroids, there are UFOs that float around that once hit it can give you power-ups that can really help you out in a level! As you progress through the 27 levels in the game you face new challenges. Such as your planets start to float around making aiming even more difficult and the rate that the asteroids come start to gradually increase faster. Even though this game is extremely fantastic the way it is I feel that it's missing a few things. Sometimes I wish instead of shooting the already pre-selected rocket, it would be great to switch to a different rocket to shoot the asteroid
just in time instead of waiting for the highlighted rocket to slowly make its way around when there's already a rocket near by. By the time the rocket gets around, the asteroid would have already destroyed a shield. Another thing that it's missing is some more modes. All the game right now is pretty much survivor mode levels. Other than that, this is a fun little challenging game that'll have you playing it constantly trying to beat your previous high scores. Overall my final rating is 3.5 out of 5 stars. Even though it's missing a few things to me, it's a pretty good game with universal support for a great price tag of only $0.99!
