Kersploosh!, known in Europe as Splash or Crash and in Japan as Hyu~ Stone (ひゅ~ストン, Hyu~suton), is a action video game developed by Poisoft for the Nintendo 3DS. The game was released on the Nintendo eShop in Japan on June 7, 2011, and in 2013 in Europe on February 28, and in North America on March 7.

Gameplay

[edit]

Kersploosh! is a unique[citation needed] game based on the premise of what an object might see when it is thrown down a well. The goal of the game is to steer the chosen object to the bottom of the well in as fast a time as possible without it breaking. Players can unlock various objects to throw down the well, including a stone, an iron ball, a jewel, a watermelon, a plate, and a matryoshka doll. Each object has unique stats for speed, boost speed, and durability. On the way down, players use the Circle Pad to steer their object in order to avoid obstacles such as wooden planks, shutters, cannons and homing cookies. Giant doughnuts can be passed through to give the object a speed boost while balloons can be popped to recover durability. There are ten wells with their own high score tables, and players could exchange high scores via StreetPass.[1]

Reception

[edit]

Nintendo Life gave the game a score of 8/10, praising it for its addictiveness.[2]

Sequel

[edit]

A sequel, 新ひゅ~ストン (Shin Hyu~suton; New Hyu-stone), was released in Japan in 2015. It featured double the number of stones to drop and four times the amount of well to traverse.[3]
