Kick the Buddy: Second Kick


                Kick the Buddy: Second Kick


Hello, Amir Lackpour here and my blog is going to be about Kick the Buddy: Second Kick. Kick the Buddy: Second Kick is on the ios Appstore and is the sequel to the first Kick the Buddy which was taken down by Crustalli, who publishes the app, for some bug fixes and was never put back. Weeks later fans were promised an update but instead a brand new game was announced on their Facebook page (I'll leave a link at the end). I stayed updated with their Facebook and even won their comic contest which rewarded me with a false promise of publishing my comic. But I got a promo code which gives me the game for free so without further ado let me give you guys a run down on whether or not this game is worth buying.


Kick the Buddy: Second Kick is a rag doll type game that is marketed at $0.99 in America along with in app purchases. Basically You have a lot of weapons at your disposal and you can torture "Buddy" in any way you want. There are virtually limitless ways to relieve your stress. You can change the backgrounds and even Buddy's wardrobe if you want. A really cool feature that I like is being able to take (or choose) a picture of someone and put their face on Buddy. But it still feels kinda weird because their face stays the same so I prefer regular Buddy. So I am going to rate this game based on the game play and let you know if it's worth getting.

 

 

 

 I'll start off by saying the graphics were really aesthetically pleasing. I didn't find any bugs regarding weapon use and the game play was very smooth on my iPhone 4S. I was a little surprised on how many weapons costed "real" money. For those of you who don't know what Kick the Buddy is about you basically start off with very simple weapons and the more you torture Buddy the more money you get and with that money you can buy more weapons to torture him with. Generally the more expensive a weapon is the cooler it is and will earn you more money with usage. Back to my my original point alot of the new weapons that weren't in the original cost real money. You basically have to buy packs of gold and only certain weapons cost gold so those are the weapons that cost real money. Other than that Buddy is back with a brand new voice instead of just sounds and dialogue. There are alot of really unique weapons in this game to use on Buddy and along with weapons are also really cool outfits and backgrounds.
 

Verdict: I think if you are a fan of the online game "Interactive Buddy" you will love Kick the Buddy: Second Kick. For 99 cents its a great buy and if you don't mind paying extra for some really awesome weopons then you should have no problem loving this game. It's a great game to play when you're bored, waiting in line, or just really want to blow off steam. With many more updates to come this game will only get better with time. So the answer is, $Yes$ it's worth it.

Make sure you stay tune to my blogs to check out more games that are or are not worth it.
