In the free version of the game, if you die you can’t continue from the last check point and have to start right from the beginning. You have to make split second decisions and aim properly if you want to survive in the game. The game gradually ramps up the difficulty as you move forward by throwing more complicated obstructions at you. While you’re moving you occasionally pick up power ups that let you, say, fire an unlimited number of balls for a limited amount of time or slow down time so you get more time to shoot accurately. The game moves through different levels and with each level the level design, the obstructions, the speed, the graphics and the music changes. You have a limited set of balls to play with so if you use them all or lose them then the game is over.

If you fail to destroy the obstructions before you hit them, you lose some of your balls for every hit. There are those that give you additional balls for every hit and others are just obstructions you have to get out of your way. There are two types of things you have to hit in the game. The camera is slowly moving forward through the 3D world, which makes aiming a bit difficult as you’re hitting a constantly moving target. You shoot metal balls by touching the screen the balls are shot where you tap on the screen. The basic objective in Smash Hit is to break glass structures. If that sounds interesting to you then you should read on for the full review. The game makes extensive use of physics for the movement of the balls and the glass and it all looks very nice.

In Smash Hits you throw balls at glass structures, which earns you points and keeps you moving forward. If those games tell us anything, it’s that Mediocre knows how to emulate physics in games. Smash Hits is the latest game from the folks who brought us Sprinkle, Sprinkle Junior and Sprinkle Islands.
