## What is PCB Current?

PCB Current is an exciting shoot-em-up game.  If you like NES Duck Hunt or games like that, this game is for you.  Current flows from left to right, making a moving target for you to try and stop.  Each new level increases the number of surges and the speed they travel.  The Circuit Board changes appearance with respect to the AMP Gage.  The Amp Gage displays the circuit boards condition.  If the task of keeping your circuit board surge free is hard try lowering the settings.  Do not let the Amps get too high!

### 3/5 — Good, but no where near great...

*2009-01-06*

I snagged this game while it was still free, and I have to say I am very surprised it is now $0.99 because it is not worth $0.99. Still, it is sort of fun. The controls however are stupid, maybe you should just have us zap the dots with our fingers. That would make it much easier, so you could have a lot more dots going at the same time with more lines. The concept is interesting with the circuit board and charges. Also, the graphics are quite terrible. Once you fix those things and change the controls to a touch-interface though, it won't be any close to 4 stars. KECHBS Software, I encourage you to lower the price back to down to free.

Pointless not worth Anything

### 1/5 — Good but.....

*2008-12-23*

It could use sin work with the aiming. You should be just able to yap the electrode.

### 5/5 — Fast Action
