The iPhone’s accelerometer is nothing to sneeze at. If you are like me and love games that involve tilting your phone all around and side to side, especially games like Marble Maze Ultra or Labyrinth, then Opps! is a game you need to check out. Opps! doesn’t come with 100 levels or anything like that, just a simple game with balls and holes (keep your minds out of the gutters folks). In a nutshell when you open Opps! you are given 3 balls, and 3 holes, the objective is to get said balls into said holes by tilting the phone around and causing the balls to roll. Once you get all the balls stuck in the holes, it will ask you to replay, hit ok and the holes will be randomly moved once again and you can do it, once again! Hitting the info button at the bottom right of the screen allows you to select between 3-9 balls, and 3-9 holes, you can also change the background wallpaper. Opps! is the first game of this type I have seen to use multiple balls and holes. It’s a nice change from the old-fashioned one ball, one finish type deal.

Opps! isn’t a game that is going to keep you occupied very long however. No walls, no obstacles, and no advancing levels means no real challenge. It’s a simple game, and that is a plus but expect to play the same level over and over again with the holes simply moved a bit. I love the idea behind having to control multiple balls at the same time, and would love to see the developer implement more levels in future updates, but for the time being Opps! is a game that can easily occupy you for a few minutes.

 

QUICK TAKE

Value: Low

Would I Buy Again: Yes

Learning Curve: None-Very Easy

Who is it For: Anyone! It’s a game!

My Likes: Multiple balls and holes as opposed to only one of each

My Dislikes: No obstacles, no series of levels

Final Statement: Opps! is fun, simple as that. But it’s only fun for a few minutes. I am really crossing my fingers hoping the developer will implement more levels and obstacles in the near future. If you like Marble Maze Ultra or any other marble game then Opps! is a great game to add beside it on your iPhone.

Rating: 3 stars
