Starting on a helipad, you have to find each trapped mountaineer. Tapping or holding the left of the screen thrusts you up and to the left, and visa-versa. Releasing the screen sees you descend diagonally in the direction you are facing.a game of precisionThe result of this control method is that you never move straight up or down through the increasingly tall and narrow 2D stages. This forces you to carefully and rapidly feather your inputs, as you weave your way from your helipad pasts each perilous obstacle to rescue increasing numbers of climbers.you never move straight up or downIt starts easily enough, but soon you are making your way up multiple, increasingly difficult screens. Within a few levels you find yourself descending into narrow gaps between trees to pull out one individual, before trying to pluck another from a moving cable car - meaning you have to get good quickly, or find reserves of patience. pluck another from a moving cable carClear skiesIt is clear that the developer knew how punishing Risky Rescue could be, so they have utilized very clear graphics. It is full of bright colors and straight lines. The bottom line is, if it isn't your helipad or a person in need of help, don't touch it - even if it's just a windsock.very clear graphicsUnfortunately, despite the world's clean lines, it occasionally felt like I was hitting items a fraction of a second before I thought I was supposed to.
