10月24日 的 Pixel Rugby 應用程式分析

Retro arcade rugby you play with one hand. Your five players run up the pitch across five lanes: pass to the lane above or below to get past defenders, then dive over the line for the try. You attack, the computer defends, and the other side's possessions are simulated, so a full match takes about five minutes. Simple to pick up, with a lot underneath if you want it: 100 nations, each with its own flag and anthem, a world ranking your results actually move, a 20-club career, and a tournament calendar that never ends. EVERY SCREEN YOU OWN One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac, with your save synced between them. On Apple TV it plays with the Siri Remote, and on Mac with the keyboard. Apple Watch gets its own Endless Runner, passing with the Digital Crown, free for everyone. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY Endless Runner: One sprint, three hearts, and a ladder that throws a tougher nation at you every 100 metres until the world number one is all that is left. Distance is your score, with a top-200 board kept on your device. Quick Match: Two nations, one short match. Play it as a ranked Test that permanently moves the world rankings, or as a friendly that changes nothing. Hold the button instead of tapping and you get a surprise fixture, always away from home. Tournaments: Eleven competitions on one carousel: the Global Cup, the North and South Nations, and eight more cups. Fields are read from your own world rankings rather than written down, so a nation you train up can qualify for a cup it could not reach before. The Global Cup takes the best of each region and five wildcards on top, so the 24 move with your results without a continent ever dropping out. Career: Twenty clubs across two divisions. It saves after every match, so a season spreads happily across as many short sittings as you like. Before a season starts you can pick how bonus points are scored: the standard way, or the French system, where the attacking bonus is three more tries than the other side rather than four in total. WHAT ELSE IS IN THERE • Pixel art with an optional CRT filter, and a chiptune soundtrack. • Weather that changes how a match plays. • Anthems and war dances before kick-off. • Newspapers that write up your results. • Two kits for every nation, three for every club. • Crowds that fill or empty depending on who is playing and where. Playable start to finish in English, French, and Spanish, nation names and the newspaper's masthead included. FREE AND PRO Free to play: the Endless Runner, Quick Match friendlies, the first three rounds of a career, and two full tournaments, both of them start to finish. One purchase unlocks the rest, permanently. Ranked Tests, every tournament, the full career, and save sync across your devices. No subscription, and it covers iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac. NO ACCOUNTS, NO ADS, NO TRACKING Nothing to sign up for, no ad network, and no data collected. Your save lives on your device, and syncs through your own iCloud only if you switch it on.
