Übersicht

Lernen Sie Zapper, die elektrisierendste Grille des Universums, kennen ...

Details

Zapper ist eine muntere kleine Grille mit einem Problem: Sein kleiner Bruder Zipper wurde von der fiesen Elster Maggie entführt! Dieser Vogel ist ganz versessen darauf, alles zu stehlen, was irgendwie glitzert und glänzt. Ausserdem legt Maggie Eier, aus denen noch mehr von diesen diebischen Elstern schlüpfen und den anderen das Leben zur Hölle machen. Schlüpfen Sie in die Rolle des unerschrockenen Insekts, sammeln Sie verschiedene Gegenstände ein, retten Sie Ihren zirpenden Bruder Zipper und bereiten Sie den diebischen Wegen Maggies ein Ende.

Indem das Spiel dieselben Ausweich-Taktiken benutzt wie der frühere Blitz-Title Frogger 2: Swampy's Revenge, lässt Sie Zapper in eine Welt voller Action-geladener 3-D-Kästchen eintauchen, in der Sie sich hüpfend über Abgründe und Hindernisse fortbewegen, vielen Gefahren ausweichen und alle fiesen Schmutzbuckel in der Umgebung mit Ihren Elektro-Schock-Fühlern ordentlich grillen müssen. Sie können Ihre Fühler in vier verschiedenen Welten ausstrecken. Dort gilt es, 17 einzigartige Level zu erkunden und zusätzliche verborgene Gebiete und Bonus-Level freizuschalten. Zapper können Sie im Einzelspieler-Modus spielen und dabei eine ordentliche Portion Arcade-mässige Action geniessen. Allerdings ist auch der Mehrspieler-Modus zu empfehlen, in dem Sie es mit bis zu drei Freunden aufnehmen können.

Features


• Hüpfen Sie auf der Suche nach deinem Bruder durch vier helle, farbenfrohe Welten
  
  
• Mit dem Mehrspieler-Modus können bis zu vier Spieler an der heissen Action teilhaben
  
  
• Grillen Sie Ihre Gegner mit Ihrer handlichen Waffe
