Ballistix is a skill-based game inspired by Crossfire, somewhere between pinball and football, where you have to move a ball by bombarding it with projectiles until it enters the opposing goal.
The two-player mode takes place in symmetrical arenas where each player fires the ball towards the opposite camp, while in solo mode, you’ll be up against gravity. The “physics engine” is convincing, and the macabre imagery reminiscent of Shadow of the Beast gives it a certain character, despite the repetitive game concept.
