Swing Copters review
Swing Copters is a game created in the spirit of Flappy Bird, but it adds an interesting twist by changing the orientation of the action from horizontal to vertical. This change adds some challenge to the familiar dynamic of the game, and it can keep you entertained for hours at a time.
Pros
New dynamic: The change to navigating vertically as opposed to horizontally makes things more interesting and challenging than you might expect.
Leaderboards and challenges: In addition to competing with yourself and trying to beat your own high scores, you can also check out how you stack up against the global competition through the Leaderboards in the game. And you can keep things interesting by challenging your friends to beat your score or reach particular Achievements.
Cons
No levels: This game is quite hard when you first start out, but once you get the hang of it, the only challenge is to last longer than you did before. It would be nice if there were a few built-in levels so that new players could get a feel for the controls and more experienced players could increase the speed of the game to challenge themselves.
Bottom Line
Swing Copters is a fun twist on the endless flying game theme. It's hard at first, but that only serves to make it more addicting if you like this type of game to begin with. It's free to download and play, although you may find yourself spending way more time than you anticipated playing it once you have it on your phone. There are also banner ads that you can remove for $0.99, but they don't interfere with gameplay in any way.
