Vertical Scroller Games

The Downwell Mobile Game Requires You to Battle Enemies Inside a Well

Downwell is a vertical scroller that is finally going to be made available on the Google Play online app and game store, much to the joy and enthusiasm of mobile game fans around the world.

The game's workings are at once simple and bonkers -- your character is falling down a well (hence the name 'Downwell') and is battling enemies down there. It's a brilliantly simple game that demands good hand-eye coordination and the ability to multitask. After all, falling down a well is a pain in the rear even when you're not fighting evil enemies at the same time.

This entertaining vertical scroller game is priced at $2.99 on iTunes, but it remains to be seen how much it will be listed for on Google Play. Regardless, it's a small price to pay for the experience of destroying bad guys inside a dark, dingy well.
