Tap and drag your finger to draw a line on the screen and change the angle of your shot, and then just release when you want to fire upon your enemies.

The game includes on-screen controls, six environments, 36 levels, 12 bosses, over 100 bonus items, and Game Center integration. **Triniti Interactive is notorious for promoting their own games with small banners displayed during menu screens, so if this is something you aren't fond of, avoid this and all of their other games.**

Fascination ($0.99 -> Free, 18.8 MB): A simple physics-based arcade game based on the classic North American boardwalk game. All you have to do is roll the ball down the table by swiping your finger and watch as it sinks into one of the 25 different holes.

The tickets you earn during the game can be redeemed for prizes that enhance the gameplay.
