Game Review
C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER! Epic Combo is an awesome flash game that's all about making epic combos. Simple as it sounds, I'll still explain it. Okay, so you're this businessman with a giant hammer. You basically kick off the "combo" by hitting turtles with a hammer strike to earn some money. The size of the combo is determined by how many times the shell or shells hit something other than the floor before the combo timer runs out. Whenever each time a shell does, the timer is renewed.

Once the combo is over or you manually stop it, you can use your money to buy lasers and springs and things to smash more turtles. Repeat it for the most epic combo ever. There are 2 main modes to choose from in the game, the original or the unlimited mode. Your goal in regular gameplay is to achieve 10,000 hits as fast as you can while, unlimited mode is a seriously unlimited mode! I got the score up to over a million. My computer lagged badly over time, especially when you got enough money to cover the entire floor with launchers and proxy mines. The game just goes on forever until your machine runs out of resources!

Actually on my first try, I'm thoroughly confused by the game. I was frustrated with the swing delay, but after playing a few minutes I slowly understand that its intent as the goal is to make one swing do a lot of work. It has a lot more depth and strategy to placement than is at first apparent. My combo from then on was running for the last 15 minutes with no end in sight. Either I have unwittingly mastered this game with no real prowess or there's something wrong with the game and it could possibly go on forever. Am I supposed to hit the "End combo early" button? This game is honestly ridiculous! :)
