Does anyone remember a Flash game that pre-dates Angry Birds but was identical in game-play? I think it was Romans rather than pigs, and it was different types of canon rather than birds. I have a feeling it was posted on here or the MUMP as a Friday time-waster.


Castle clout was the first time I played such a game

There are many games of that ilk. Dressing something up as a bird won't make it any better.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

That was the one - I still recognised half the castles :lol:

It's better than Angry Birds because I'm finished and onto the editor already...

Most people get bored of angry birds. I think its will fade in a couple of years, despite its popularity now.

Anyone remember Tamigochi?

I wish someone would port Turrican 2 from the Amiga to Android.

Run it in an emulator? Think it had console versions. The Universal Soldier game was almost identical too ;)
