Chances are you probably haven’t heard of the PSN title Slam Bolt Scrappers. For the most part this quirky mash-up of Tetris and Super Smash Brothers has remained under the radar. The few that have taken a chance on this title have walked away impressed, with sites like Kotaku awarding it with a Best of E3 nomination. During E3, we wandered aimlessly around Sony Online Entertainment’s booth and stumbled upon this wickedly awesome title. Needless to say, we walked away floored by its awesomeness. To shed some more light on this title we talked to Fire Hose Games Eitan Glinert.
Slam Bolt Scrappers is a strange game. Strange in an interesting way. The basic premise is that you have a building area and your opponent has a building area. You then fight over crates which can be dropped in your own building area in a sort of psuedo-tetris way. When these crates are arranged into square shapes they form turrets that shoot at the other player’s turrets. Oh! And there’s different coloured crates for different types of turrets. Also there’s ninjas and giant robots. Got all that? Good.
