Metal Slug.\u00a0 Metal Slug is an SNK 2-D run and gun game series that features some of the best sprite artwork I\u2019ve ever seen.\u00a0 So the fact they made an endless clicker about it for mobile devices (reviewed on iPad here) got me curious.<\/p>\n<p>So when you start the game, you see the action on the top part of the screen.\u00a0 Soldiers will scroll left to right and shoot at anything in their way automatically.\u00a0 One good thing is that the graphics here represent the series nicely.\u00a0 If anything, this is the best looking endless clicker I\u2019ve ever played.\u00a0 As you shoot down enemies, you\u2019ll earn coins.\u00a0 Tap on the icons on the bottom of the screen to level up and add soldiers to your ranks, which costs coins.\u00a0 You\u2019ll constantly earn coins so you\u2019ll be tapping on those icons a lot.\u00a0 At any time you can press a \u2018return\u2019 button that resets your ranks to level one, but you\u2019ll be able to level up faster next time when you do this.\u00a0 The game plays on even when you aren\u2019t there, so you can use those coins to level up when you come back.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s pretty much all I could get out of the game.\u00a0 They don\u2019t really do a very good job explaining what you are doing in this game, and the text is way too small (can\u2019t imagine playing this on a phone), but at least endless clickers are pretty easy to figure out.\u00a0 Unfortunately these types of \u2018games\u2019 don\u2019t hold my interest very long.\u00a0 At least it looks pretty.<\/p>\n<p><a
