About

Twango

Features
Read full description

Twango is a rubber-band duel across two desks. Pull the band, tilt to aim, and let go. Your opponent hides behind the things on their table — a plant, a cup, a laptop, a lamp — and every hit chips away at their cover until there's nowhere left to hide. Then it's their turn to come after you. Play against a friend at your own pace: take your turn, hand it over, and get a nudge when they've fired back. Or practise against the bot, which is not a good loser. Choose what stands on your table. The four classics come with the game; the shop has more, each with a habit of its own: • The Cactus catches the bands shot at you and hoards them until it breaks. • The Record Player puts on a song for your opponent when it takes a hit. • The Piggy Bank pays out a band when it's smashed. • The Tennis Racket sends a band straight back at whoever shot it. Pull too hard and the band tears — and that costs you, not them. Twango is a game of nerve as much as aim: the band never quite sounds the same twice.
