Hey Vsauce I'm Jake and that's a bear...Nooooooo!
Not my pointing finger!
At least I still have you, Shaking Fist.
Nooooooo!
Luckily bear can be Only One a retro arena style fighting game
where you battle your enemies with your magic sword.
Fight to the death or push them off of the pillar in the sky to their doom below.
But since each enemy has a unique attack, you have to strategize how best to defeat
each kind.
As the game progresses your character upgrades in level and ability with ones like push,
freeze, and whirlwind.
Also, there are some pretty legit boss battles.
When you're near the edge just don't fall...
in the hole.... a multiplayer game that has you facing off against 3 opponents.
You can play with friends or the computer, blowing 'em off ledges or into holes using
different projectiles and explosives.
Use different power ups like teleport, magnet, blowhard, and bowling ball to help you become
victorious but watch for the planes flying overhead, sometimes the presents they drop
are unpresent.
After virtually murdering your friends, go on a quest...
A Spell Quest.
If boggle and Scrabble had a baby with an RPG it would be Spell Quest.
You play as Grimm who, once in battle, must create words with the given letters to defeat
monsters.
Just like Scrabble, certain letters carry more points than others and the longer the
word, the more damage it'll cause.
You upgrade your health and abilities throughout the game but occasionally letters will crack
or become cursed lessening their effectiveness.
However, quests can take awhile so lets speed things up by going for a ride on the
Dungeon Highway an endless runner that gives you monsters, action, and a bit of nostalgia.
Clear your path with magical attacks that blow villains into a mist of red pixels, but
be careful not to slam into any obstacles because that...that's death.
There are a variety of power ups that add some depth to your experience all with a cool
chiptune soundtrack.
For more soundtracks there's Deemo a rhythm game made by the team behind Cytus that pairs
beautifully haunting imagery with music.
Deemo, a lonely mystic creature finds a little girl who has fallen mysteriously out of the
sky.
In order to get her back to her home you have to play songs on the piano correctly.
There are a bunch of different tracks to play and unlock, all ranging in speed and difficulty.
It really is one of the better rhythm games I've
Seene.
Seene let's you capture and share 3D images that you take with your device.
All you have to do is find a well lit object, make sure enough green dots appear on it,
then move your phone around it.
Once finished, you'll have a pretty cool, seemingly 3D photo to oggle.
To get the best image, make sure you have very few
Shadow...Arc, a challenging color matching arcade style game where you have to use paddles
to block incoming arcs.
You control each paddle independently from the other and it gets harder as the arcs start
to learn new tricks, and get faster.
The game will test the limits of your multitasking ability but luckily there are power ups like
shields and nukes to help when you're in a crunch.
For something even more hectic there is
Savant: Ascent.
Based off the musician with the same name, Savant is an awesome game were blast your
way to the top of a tower while decimating everything.
Wave after wave of enemies appear and it's your job to make their little robot bodies
regret ever being made.
The more you destroy the more CD pieces you collect which provide new music and new abilities.
The game is pretty fast paced and insane which makes it that more fun.
Since the game takes you straight up there isn't any other
Path...ogen, a turn based strategy board game that is really pretty challenging.
It's easy to learn at first but has an infinite depth of strategic options to keep you on
your lil' toes.
The goal is to occupy the majority of the board using your cells.
Each cell is different and some take longer to recharge than other.
Some rounds will last minutes, others might last closer to an hour depending on difficulty
level and your approach.
Either way, once you win it is immensely satisfying...but losing has you starting from the very beginning.
So let out that frustration with this episode's App of the Week.
Fist of Awesome
In Fist of Awesome you punch bears in the face.
And deer.
Well, you can also jump kick them too to give your fist a break.
In the game you are a time traveling lumberjack named Tim Burr that has been thrown into a
world taken over and ruled by bears.
The gameplay is a throwback to classics like Streets of Rage and Final Fight, but with
way more bears... and the killing of bears...and deer.
There are boss battles, sweet combos and if you thought there would be bearly any puns,
well, guess again.
Links to the apps can be found in the description below.
I'm Jake and, as always, thanks for watching.
