And not quite what you'd expect from iphone screen protector glass vs plastic a movie tie-in, It's not some fancy first-person shooter or, heaven forbid, Katniss kart-racing, Instead, Girl on Fire taps the very heart of the "Hunger Games" trilogy: a girl constantly on the run, constantly fighting for her life, This is what's known as a "perpetual runner," meaning your character (Katniss, natch) is always on the move, Actually, it's the scenery that moves; she remains center-screen at all times, As Katniss runs, she faces increasingly difficult attacks from wasp-like Tracker Jackers, which shoot at her and try to sting her, Katniss' only weapon, of course, is her trusty bow and arrow, To shoot, you simply tap in the direction of the flying menace..
Katniss can also jump up to a higher platform and back down again, which is crucial for evading attacks. This is done simply by swiping up or down. And that's the game in a nutshell: run, shoot, jump up, jump down. Ultimately you're trying to survive long enough to return to District 12, at which point you'll face Capitol hovercraft instead of Jackers. (Confession: I haven't made it that far--yet.). Girl on Fire fully embraces a retro, 8-bit visual style, and although there's little connection between that style and "The Hunger Games," I must admit to liking the game's colorful-but-blocky graphics. Somehow they just feel right.
