Kungfu kickball4/5/2023 ![]() ![]() That makes me feel a little sad, as we really enjoyed our time with KungFu Kickball.” ![]() “It did feel like my wife, my daughter and I weren’t really the intended audience for this game. I personally love the Desert as the soundtrack absolutely banging. Although we definitely found our favourites and our most challenging maps. I would have loved to have seen even more variety here, as six maps is fairly limiting and eventually you just want to try something new. But it’s not just the obstacles, there are times when you can actually affect the landscape too! In the caves, you’ll find stalactites hanging in front of the bell and if you hit them enough they’ll fall down. Sometimes it can even feel like a pinball machine where your great shot gets rebounded several times while you run back and forth waiting for it to return to the ground. Trying to navigate some of the obstacles in the maps is more difficult than just getting the ball past your opponents. There is a basic flat stadium that hosts a bell on each end and a couple of ledges to stand on, but then you get to the desert and there are two giant pyramids to try and navigate the ball over, plus random sandstorms to obscure your vision. There are currently six different maps that vary in several different ways. The gameplay here might seem simple and feel a little repetitive, but the map layout is very unique and different for each one. And, well, my team did win 90% of the time, but my son and I are more seasoned competitors where my wife and daughter aren’t so much. Have I mentioned we had no arguments while playing this for hours on end? I think because it was genuinely fun regardless of whether your team won or not. There was nothing more fun than all of us surrounding the goal zone, the camera zoomed right in, and furiously trying to either defend or score, yelling to one another to help or move or kick. I found it helpful to have the added zoom when players were clustered together. The physics work flawlessly, the hitboxes are on point, and the camera continuously zooms in and out depending on where all the players are on screen. ![]() You can even mix it up a bit and change the gravity settings and more to add new challenges and chaos. Despite the basic controls, the gameplay is fast and fun. Jump, punch/kick, dash, and special attack. There is a minor tutorial that goes through the basic moves, but honestly, we picked it up and just learned on the fly. Because of the limited control scheme, using single joy-cons on the Switch is easy and unobstructed. As a default, you have 3 minutes on the clock and can go head-to-head or team up in 2v2 matches. Similar to games like Rocket League, All you need to do is get the ball to the goal zone and ring the bell. The gameplay of KungFu Kickball is simple, with only a few buttons to use and only one objective. “…we found ourselves laughing, cheering, and really enjoying some quality time together, whilst still punching, kicking, and competing against one another” ![]()
