Game Review (written by Chrissi) Added on: 11/18/2007
Gorillas is a turn based artillery arcade game where there are two gorillas throwing explosive bananas at each other on a city skyline. You are able to adjust the angle and velocity of your throw allowing you to target your opponent.
The game has many aspects to make it a little more difficult then just throwing bananas back and forth at each other. You will have to deal with winds that will throw off your directional point and the speed to get it to where you want it to reach.

You will have to deal with winds that will throw off your directional point and the speed to get it to where you want it to reach. This game deals with a lot of mathematical aspect. You have to determine what would be the right angle and speed to throw your banana while trying to differ all the extra challenges. If you reach

your opponent you will see them exploding violently and see the well-known Donkey Kong disco dance. If you fail to reach your opponent they will begin attempting to do the exact it to you until one of you is defeated. While trying to defeat each other you will see the landscape that you are battling on whither away to tons of craters.
For such a simplistic game you would feel that you would only play this a few times, but soon you will discover that you’ve been playing for hours and only been defeated once or twice. Gorillas are a highly addictive artillery battle game. Once you get the hang of the calculations and aiming you soon will be defeating your opponent like nothing. The level of difficulty that takes place in this game can vary depending on how experienced you are and the level that you are playing in. Once you figure out all the mathematical points and directions this game will become one of the best arcade games you’ve ever played.
The graphics as well are very simple. You get your basic arcade like detail with the added animation when you hit buildings and your opponent. Even though the graphics are not overly detailed you will not find yourself put off of the game. With the basic graphics you will not be distracted from what you are trying to do and be more aware of what your opponent is attempting.
Gorillas is definitely a game I would recommend for any computer gamer. Even though you are not able to play this game online you will find yourself playing against your friends and the computer daily just because it is that enjoyable. This is surely an all time classic that many people will remember playing when they were young.
