\"Catch<\/a><\/p>\n

Catch the monkey is an upcoming game for the iPhone\/iPad (and android once we release the iOS versions). \u00a0It is being made by two ridiculously talented people called MirthWerx.<\/p>\n

(screenshots are from actual play of our work in progress, we’re still working on them)<\/p>\n

The Gist of It<\/span><\/p>\n

Curious little monkeys are getting into the farmer’s field and eating his potato crop. \u00a0Unfortunately the farmer is an old grandpa and can’t quite catch the monkeys. \u00a0It is \u00a0your job, should you choose to accept it, to use tools to distract the monkeys so the farmer can safely remove them from the field.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As you progress the monkeys come faster and more types of monkeys come. \u00a0To help you along the way, new tools become available and it is up to you to use the best tool for the job to protect the farm!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0Challenging Play<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Try to score better than the developers<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Based on how quickly you clear the field of the required number of monkeys, and how many plants you save, AND how many stars you collect, you’ll get a rank. \u00a0Only if you get the\u00a0elusive\u00a0S Rank will you be able to get your score onto the leaderboard (well that’s the plan anyway).<\/p>\n

Collect Stars to Buy Upgrades<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There is a chance when the farmer picks up a monkey that a star will pop out. \u00a0If you are quick enough to catch it it goes into your star count (displayed in the bottom right corner). \u00a0Between levels you can purchase upgrades to help make your job easier with all those curious little monkeys. \u00a0New tools become available as you progress through the waves of monkeys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
