Gameplay

edit

The goal of each level of Incidence is to get a ball into a hole in a set number of shots (4 shots to be precise[1]).[2] The player launches the ball by dragging back (which sets the power and angle of the shot). Once the ball is launched will bounce against the level's walls six times. On the sixth bounce the ball stops ready for the player to hit again. If the player runs out of shots (goes over par), the ball explodes and the player has to start the level over.[2] If the player gets the ball into the hole, the player advances to the next level.[3]

As the player progresses the levels get increasingly more difficult to play as new elements such as spikes and bouncy walls are introduced.[3]

Reception

edit

On Metacritic, Incidence received a "mixed or average" score of 67 based on four critics.[4] Multiple critics had mixed opinions.[1][2][3][5]
