Sling Glider は、小さなプロペラ機で空港から空港へ飛ぶ、指 1 本の飛距離ゲームです。 ■ 遊び方 ・滑走路の端で画面を長押しすると、エンジンがうなって機体が加速します。指を離すとその速さで離陸。滑走路の端まで押し続けると自動で離陸します ・空に出たあとは、燃料があるあいだエンジンが機体を押し、燃料が切れたら地面に着くまで滑空します ・飛行中は指をドラッグして操縦。左右で機体を傾け、上下で機首を上げ下げします。木や岩、塔にぶつかるとその場で飛行終了 ・ゴールの手前には目的地の街が広がり、ビルのあいだの真ん中の一本道を抜けると、次の空港に着きます ・飛んだ距離がコインになり、滑走路に並ぶ 4 枚のカード(エンジン・燃料・機体・収入)を強化して、次の飛行をもう少し遠くへ ■ 特徴 ・操作は長押しとドラッグだけ。1 回の飛行は 1 分以内 ・機体を強化すると、長い主翼・大きな尾翼・翼端・機首と、機体に新しいパーツが付いていきます ・夏の田園、海辺の町、秋の村、桜、砂漠の峡谷、雪原、火山島、夕暮れの湖、夜の街、雲の海。10 のステージはそれぞれ景色も、障害物の並びも、追い風の強さも違います ・離陸、燃料切れ、着地、強化のたびに手応え(触覚フィードバック) ・進行状況は端末内に保存。アカウント登録は不要で、課金もありません ・広告は動画広告(報酬型)だけで、ボタンを押したときにだけ流れます。見終えると、その飛行のコインが 2 倍になる・次の飛行の燃料が +50% になる・買えない強化が 1 段無料になる、のいずれかを受け取れます。途中で閉じても何も起きません 燃料が切れたあとの静かな滑空を楽しみながら、一歩ずつ遠くの空港をめざしてください。

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Sling Glider at none against Climbing Ball's shown. Sling Glider also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 5 weeks). Climbing Ball's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
