To-Fu: The Trials Of Chi Is A Unique Aiming and Stretching Game
To-Fu: The Trials of Chi ($0.99) by HotGen Ltd. is an enjoyable game that will have you working through mental exercises as you move To-Fu through a “trial” or maze. This is a fairly relaxing game with “feel good” accomplishments along the way. Gamers of all ages will enjoy the challenges To-Fu: The Trials Of Chi provides.
To-Fu is a cute little martial artist that needs to move through a maze of dangers in order to reach “Fortune Kitty” at the end. Along the way you will have to avoid different obstacles while trying to acquire emblems and chi before completing the trial.
To play, stretch To-Fu with your finger and aim in the direction you would like him to go. Once you release, To-Fu will fly through the air and land at a new destination. Along the way, pick up “chi,” by flying through the round chi balls. You must watch for different emblems to pick up as well. If you accidentally run into any of the obstacles, such as spikes, it will end your trial as To-Fu will not survive the impact. Fortune Kitty waits patiently for you at the end of each trial.
The trials become more and more difficult as you go along. There are 100 trials to get through in order to become a “Master Chi.” The replay value is high, since each trial can be completed with different moves.
The music and sound effects are impressive. The music is instrumental with an oriental feel. The sound effects from To-Fu are also very cute, especially when he is stretching. If you ignore him, he might sneeze, just to remind you he is still waiting for a move.
To-Fu: The Trials Of Chi is designed for both the iPhone and iPad. The iPad version is a little more expensive, but the graphics are optimized for the larger screen. If you enjoy aim and shoot games, To-Fu: The Trials OF Chi is worth checking out.
