Would be good if you could move or throw your shield at thunder to knock them out of the sky! ### 3/5 — what happened to Cap's color scheme? *2014-10-22, version 1.0.3* It's a fun simple game, just shield yourself from attacks. Though I'm not happy about the change of the Captain's color scheme. What happened to Captain America's color scheme? I personally really dislike the new costume for Captain...-2 stars for that. ### 3/5 — It's all in the timing *2014-04-18* This game is about timing. Tap and your shield us lifted briefly. So the aim is to learn to tap just at the right instant. An OK concept, but do the graphics have to be so poor and the adds get in the way too often. ## Frequently asked questions about Captain vs Thunder ### What is Captain vs Thunder?
