Knock the ball over the net so it lands on the other side; first to the target score wins.
Controls we used
One-button play: click or tap the on-screen jump button (Space or the Up arrow also responded for us). 1P plays against the computer; 2P lets two people play on the same device.
On a phone (390px test)
Not in portrait – on a 390px portrait screen the game shrank to a thin landscape strip. Turn the phone sideways or use a desktop.
Load time
About 1.3 seconds to the menu.
Difficulty
Easy to learn – timing the jump is the whole skill – and points come fast.
In-game ads
Yes – the GameMonetize video-ad system (Google IMA) loads with the game.
How a session plays
Pick 1P or 2P and play starts immediately on a beach court with two llamas a side. Within a few seconds the scoreboard showed 2–0 and play moved on to a snowy street court with llamas in hats. A match takes only a couple of minutes.
Our verdict: A silly, charming one-button volleyball game that is at its best with a friend on the same keyboard or screen.
How we test: we open the game in a desktop browser and in a 390px-wide phone view, time how long it takes to load, play through the opening level or round and note exactly what we saw. We only write down things we observed. More about our testing.
