Gameplay
Gameplay
The game is presented from a third-person perspective. Using the Nintendo DSi's D-pad or by touching the bottom screen with the Stylus the player moves their character to capture flags and return them to their base. The player may shoot firecrackers at opponents in an attempt to pop them away from the player. If the player is hit by a firecracker, the player drops their flag (if the player is holding one) and is popped from where they were. Players can choose between 3 main types of characters: wheeled, fish, and flying. Wheeled characters move quickly on land, but slowly in water. Fish swim quickly in water but move slowly on land. Flying characters move at moderate speeds above land or water. The game offers local multiplayer for up to eight players via DS Download Play.
