Description: Would you make a good predator? This ‘citizen science’ game from researchers at the University of Lincoln lets you to test your skills as a predator and aid in our research. In this game, you are a hungry animal and your aim is to capture as many flies as you can with your retractable tongue.
Review: FlyCatcher is an odd “game” that is for sure. The main part of the game sees you using your own head movements to catch flies! You get a choice of 6 animals with shooting tounges, but other than seeing your animal at the start there is no difference. The game itself is basic looking, shallow and even a little bit of fun. But then there is an educational element attached to this “game” making it kind of interesting. It is free at least which is probably best, so maybe give it a go if you have an interest in salamanders and other extendable tongue creatures.
