Hardball Frenzy 2 is a great physics Time-Waster

Filed under: Fun, Games, Time-Wasters
Back in May, I covered Hardball Frenzy. It's quite a fun little pinball-inspired time-waster.
And now, I present Hardball Frenzy 2! The basic concept remains. You've got a limited supply of balls for each level, and you are to use them wisely. By "using them wisely," I mean you're supposed to hit the other balls until they're all gone.
There are usually quite a few more balls that you have to hit than there are "ammo balls." This means that you need to shoot a ball so that it hits a target, bounces off, and hits another target in its trajectory (and possibly another one after that!).
There are now red balls, too, and if you hit a red ball, you're out. The first few levels are a fairly drawn-out tutorial, but it's handy and only takes a few minutes. Once the actual levels begin, the game gets a lot more fun. As you can see in the screenshot, there are also bombs. When a bomb detonates, it takes care of all the balls around it.
My only gripe with the game is that, once you strike out, restarting the level takes about a second too long. There's just an awkward pause there that breaks up the gameplay a little bit. But as I said, it's minor stuff, and the game is definitely fun to play!Hardball Frenzy 2 is a great physics Time-Waster originally appeared on Download Squad on Tue, 14 Sep 2010 13:00:00 EST.
