Today in “Fuck it, that title sounds crazy enough to warrant a purchase” is King Oddball Ends The World on iOS. And, really, there’s not much more to say than…fuck it, that title sounds crazy enough to warrant a purchase!

King Oddball was announced today (and released at the same time, as far as I can tell) on iOS for the ‘cheap enough to check out’ price of $1.99. That price will bump up to $2.99 once this promotional sale is over, but the announcement press-release, issued by developer 10tons Ltd., doesn’t even attempt to indicate when that sale ends, so anyone looking to save a quick buck (er…literally) should probably grab this piece of weirdness whilst they can.

Something else 10tons Ltd. didn’t seem bothered about including in their P.R. was, of all things, spellcheck:

Game developer 10tons Ltd. announched today the release of the skill based physics puzzle game King Oddball Ends The World for iOS devices.

Alright, alright, I kid. They’re Finnish, after all. But seriously, literally all I know about the game is as follows:

In King Oddball Ends The World, the player controls a floating rock head of unknown origin. The King swings a large boulder back and forth by his tongue, and the player releases the boulder by tapping the screen. The goal is to crush all tanks, helicopters and soldiers on screen with a limited amount of boulders. To achieve this, the player has to figure out how the boulder will bounce and roll as impacts and explosions affect it.

So this game is The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, starring a boulder, disguised as a puzzle game? That sounds like it’s worth two dollars of experimentation.

Regular readers will remember, I have a certain penchant for ridiculous iOS titles with game titles that make absolutely no goddamn sense. Hopefully, King Oddball will turn out better than Inappropriate Llama Disaster which, although free, was an absolute waste of time. I’m sure you’ll hear from me soon what Oddball is like.
