We have seen many “tap” style music games come to the iPhone, since the App Store opened in 2008. Music games are a natural progression for the iPhone and iPod Touch, and the tap style games a great. Pointers looks to bring something different to the genre, with SwingSwing Motion, using the accelerometer to play the game.
Similar to other music games in the App Store, the premis is to get through all the songs on each level of difficulty, to progress through the game. It starts you off pretty easy, but gets quite challenging, the further you get. Each song has three levels of difficulty, Easy, Medium, and Hard. There is also an Extreme mode to unlock, for a few of the songs.
There are 17 songs in total. There is no licensed material, but the songs included are well known classics. The list as as follows:
1. Chopsticks
2. Wild West
3. Turkish March
4. Dancing Cat
5. Twinkle Little star
6. Hokey Pokey
7. Ten Little Indians
8. Dance of The Swans
9. Habanera Tango
10. San Sebastian
11. SwingSwing
12. La Campanella
13. Pathetique
14. Thunder Cat
15. Extreme Notes for Turkish March
16. Extreme Notes for La Campanella
17. Extreme Notes for Dance of The Swan
Each level and each song has uniquely designed backgrounds, making the game visually fun, as well as fun to play. The design is simple and easy to follow, so anyone can pick up this game and start playing.
SwingSwing Motion is available in the App Store now for $.99. Get it now!
