Ahoy there me lads and lasses! It’s me again yer friendly app pirate ready to tackle another exciting adventure around the seven seas. We have a long list of destinations to check out, so before that, we decided to stop by on land and get some things that we need. Since we’re already there, the crew and I also decided to go shopping for personal items that we wanted. Aye, we buccaneers are also into shopping. Har, har, har! But since we spend most of our time sailing on the ocean, we sometimes play shopping games to fill our cravings for shopping. Let me tell ye one of the apps that we use. It’s called Shopping Quest by Voodoo. So batten down the hatches and let’s start.
It lets you experience shopping online
This is a nice game for those who are into shopping. If you love looking for items to buy, it will satisfy your shopping cravings as it’s exactly what you will do, except virtually. It’s a first-person point of view, so you will feel the entire experience as the shopper. The items are limited at first, but the options get wider as you progress.
It’s free with ads after every level
This app is available for free. You can download and keep playing without spending anything. However, as you would expect, there are ads, which play after every level. At least, they don’t show up randomly even when playing games. However, there are times the game would freeze after watching an ad, which is a problem, as you will be forced to restart.
It’s fast paced but the controls aren’t smooth
The game is fast paced, especially if you are quick to find the items that you need to buy. You are given a list, and they are not usually that long, so you wouldn’t have a problem completing them fast. You have a budget, so you also need to be careful when choosing the items, which add to the challenge. It sharpens your math skills, which you could actually use in real life, like when you are shopping in person. The controls are not the smoothest, so you might experience problems or might struggle when moving around the mall and choosing clothes.
There’s no tutorial and it has average graphics
Unfortunately, there is no tutorial, so you need to figure out how it’s played on your own. It’s not that difficult though, so you should get the basics of the game with a few tries. The graphics are not too bad, although they would not really wow you. But it’s still good as there are varieties, so it would still feel like you’re shopping in a real mall.
Thumbs up
It’s free and it’s fast paced. It makes you feel like you are actually shopping and there are a variety of items to choose from.
Thumbs down
There’s no tutorial so you have to figure it out on your own. The controls are also not too smooth, so you may encounter some hiccups when moving your character or choosing items to buy.
The verdict
Shopping Quest is not a perfect shopping game, but it’s good enough to give a try. It’s free and it’s fast paced. So, if you want something to pass time and you are into shopping, this is it for you.
