Big Toe Productions began selling the gridiron game Pocket Passer in the App store today, offering a football fix for fans mourning the end of the season. Available for play on the iPhone, iTouch and iPad, Pocket Passer allows users to throw bullets, bombs and lobs with the flick of a finger.
Pocket Passer is a perfect fit for mobile gamers who love playing quarterback. With its fluid and accurate passing motion, Pocket Passer enables players to hit any point on the 3D football field. The game has no pre-set throws, giving gamers more control and the ability to build their skills.
Set in a stadium complete with screaming fans, Pocket Passer features four exciting game modes:
• Career – The goal is to unlock 15 different levels by scoring big points to win trophies. Each level consists of 10 snaps with four balls per snap. Target selection and precision passing is critical to advancing. Hit a Hail Mary and score a huge bonus.
• Survival – In this test of longevity and accuracy, players start with 10 balls and attempt to earn more by maintaining accuracy, hitting longer passes and achieving streaks. Key to making the limited number of balls last is avoiding penalties, which result from holding on to the ball too long and hitting defenders instead of targets.
• Frenzy – Wanna-be QB’s have 90 seconds to hit as many targets as they can and achieve the game’s high score, while dodging defenders. Players have five different skill levels to choose from.
• Practice – Newbies can sharpen their skills without the pressure of time constraints, ball limitations or pesky defenders.
Pocket Passer also offers players the ability to track stats for their current games or an entire career. Player profiles can be easily created, edited or deleted. User-friendly and yet diverse, Pocket Passer promises hours of entertainment.
Pocket Passer is available for an introductory price of $1.99. The game will sell for $2.99 after the Grand Opening Sale.
