Tapper, the beloved 1980’s arcade classic, makes its long awaited debut in an all-new version made exclusively for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad! In Tapper World Tour, you’ll serve drinks to an eccentric cast of characters across a variety of outlandish locations. With a brand new story line, stunning graphics, challenging gameplay, and animations from the legendary Don Bluth, it’s up to you…SERVE OR BE SERVED! “I’M BACK!!!” The beloved bartender Sam is back, and this time he has company. Sam has enlisted his vivacious and beautiful daughter Nikki as his partner in crime for a journey around the globe. Join Nikki, as Sam shows her the tricks of the trade as they travel the globe and encounter a variety of crazy customers. . Tapper World Tour sets the ”bar” for iOS… in more ways than one! “ON THE ROCKS” Start off by choosing which character you want to play and then head out on your wild adventure. Once you arrive at each location, you have three or more counter tops to manage. Patrons arrive sporadically at the end of each bar and slowly advance towards you demanding drinks. Serve each customer by filling a glass with their drink of choice and sliding it down the bar towards them. Once caught, the satisfied patron gulps it down and is pushed back a short distance. The goal is to continue serving drinks until all patrons are pushed out of the bar. As the game progresses, the customers become harder to please, appear more frequently, request different drinks, move faster and get pushed back shorter distances. Collect tips to gain lives all-new power-ups to gain an advantage, or activate the live entertainment to distract patrons while you catch up with their drink orders.

    You've probably already played at least one variation of the Tapper formula, but World Tour is still worth checking out, and not just for the incredible visuals. The game is a perfect fit for iOS, with intuitive controls and bite-sized stages.

    The classic gameplay is improved by the new wrinkles, such as having to serve the right drinks to specific customers.

    Like any tasty drink though, the more you consume, the quicker you'll tire of it.

    Really great game staying true to the original. Really nice graphics, some updated gameplay and a "story" as well. This might even be something for my wife.… Expand
