Smiley Showdown is a bit of a twist on the “Chain Reaction” style games ( here's another good chain reaction game) . You have one initial blast to set off other circles that fly across the map, and each different face sends out different kinds of projectiles when activated. Depressed looking faces don’t give off as many shots as the coveted “alien face” that sprays the screen with purple shots. Some offer no extra projectiles, and the challenge comes when trying to avoid the Smiles that will break your chain while hitting the better Smileys that boost your score.
In fact you may often find yourself repeating a level over and over because it’s full of unforgiving Ghost Smileys, just don’t get discouraged because sometimes all a level takes is a little stroke of luck and just the right first shot, it’s fairly straightforward game-play wise, and rather short.
Each level offers something unique, as they tend to mix and match which faces clutter up the screen. But the real fun comes with the game’s whacky nature. It does not take itself seriously at all, and some of the achievements are pretty hilarious.
At the end Smiley Showdown does not bring too much new content or innovation to the table, but it is a quirky little time waster with a sense of humor that really saves it from being another mundane clone. There are only a few levels in this game, and not tons of replay value, but some players may find satisfaction in playing over and over to achieve the perfect chains and get the highest scores possible. It’s strength comes in the fact that it is very simple and quick, you can start it up and buzz through a couple levels at a time which is what some people look for in a flash game. It isn’t as deep or engrossing as certain other games, but it offers itself as a quirky alternative to some of the serious, dark narrative driven flash games that have become rather popular.
