An old west-themed game based on testing out how fast your reflexes are, High Noon Jonny really does impress. The arcade-styled game is easy to learn, where complicated and redundant plotlines are dumped in favor of focusing on high scores instead.
In High Noon Jonny, 4 different game modes are made available for players to enjoy. The gist of the game basically involves having the player pit their reaction times against that of the AI through old school western gunslinger duels. For example, the “Classic” mode has players react to the ring of a bell, where they have to wait for the bell to sound and be the first one to fire their pistol to win the round. Other more challenging game modes also includes challenging the AI directly where players have to shoot the AI without getting bluffed.
As previously mentioned, High Noon Jonny is a very simplistic game that does away with the unneeded and overly-fanciful details such as crisp and clear graphics and sound effects that outshine many games of today. In return, players are rewarded with excellent gameplay interface that was consistently smooth throughout the entire experience.
Priced at $0.99, I strongly recommend the download of High Noon Jonny. You will find yourself casually launching this game subconsciously every time you have a free minute or two to spare.
