Metal Detecting Game for Kindle

[RobW]

My wife bought me a Kindle for X-mas, since I refuse to have a computer at home. I figured they have an app for everything. so I searched for a metal detecting game. They actually had one. It cost 99cents.

I guess it is hard to really figure how to make what we do a game for computers. I know Minelab has one for your phone,or did, I've never played it. This one is basically a overglorified, bit more complicated, version of Mine Sweeper. It gives you a few scenarios, such as park setting, woods, etc. And basically you move the character, you need sound, as you get near an object (penny, nickel, dime, quarter, silver ring, gold ring, pull tab) it starts to make a noise, and you grid the area where the noise is (this is where it is more like mine sweeper) higher pitched noises for dime/quarter vs. low for pull tab. It keeps track of your finds. Basically if you just move it over one space and go from top to bottom, or side to side....and grid...you find everything.

I played it a few times but was very bored with it. No real challenge.

Can't wait for spring for the real thing!!!!!

sounds like the game needs something ...how about a overbearing smart-alec partner who will kick you when your down and likes to bust your stones at every chance app.

They could put a few hornets nests in there to make it more of a challenge.
