Simplicity is often the key for a game to work among the public In the case of Nail it, that simplicity takes to the extreme. And it is that in Nail It, (literally “nail it”), all we have to do is hit the hammer at the right time.
The game
In its normal mode, Nail It is a game where we have to, literally, hit the nail On a fixed screen, a hammer suspended in the air will hit the wood with each touch that we touch the screen.The wood is moving and nails will appear.
We have to give the touch in time for the nail to sink. If we give before or after, we will hit the table with a hammer and we will have to start over. The challenge is to stay on the same screen without making mistakes.
In addition to nails, we can also find stars. If we hit them in time, we will have more points on our scoreboard Another icon that can appear is a heart. By giving it a successful hammer blow, we will have one more chance to continue on the same screen even if we make a mistake.
If a stick of dynamite appears, we must not hit it By doing so, as you can imagine, we will explode into the air. And what's worse, we have to start over. Lastly, we have a blue coin, which if we hit it, will slow down time a bit so we can catch a breather.
Nail It is a game that, although repetitive, tests our reflexes, and sharpens them As soon as we have had to start a couple of times, we got serious and started concentrating to get the best possible score. Be careful not to miss the metro stop!
Options
Although the game is simple, the developers (The Mascoteers) have decided to introduce some variations to make it more varied and entertaining. Thus, at the start we find a button to choose between the seven available game modes
The Classic mode is the one that we have already mentioned before. Bottle mode gives us the same scenario, but instead of driving nails, we have to break bottles. If we don't want nails or bottles, we can also destroy light bulbs, in Bulb mode.
Whack is another mode. In this one, instead of hammering on a board, we do it on some tubes from which they can come out both bottles and light bulbs In the Color mode we will return to the nails , but you have to be careful: we can only hit those of the color that warn us at the beginning.
If we want to make things difficult for ourselves, we can opt for Vanish mode. In it, the screws or light bulbs disappear just before reaching where we are. Only for demanding players!
When we score well, we get a bonus round in which all that appears are stars. It is a good opportunity to raise our score.
Music and
These mobile games usually have pretty cheesy music, but Nail It is not.A single musical thread that does not change even if we have to repeat the phase, reminds us of the funk of the seventies and the Daft Punk of the 2010s. It is a catchy music that will make that we stay hooked on the game longer.
Nail It is a free game for iOS and Android It does not include purchases of any kind, so its funding comes through ads . Throughout the game you will see a lower bar where it will be played. Since it does not affect the course of the game, it does not bother. In addition, on some occasions we will see the possibility of viewing ads in exchange for doubling our score.
As you can see Nail It is a mobile game basic, but not simple, and very customizable. You can download it for free in both the Play Store and the App Store.
