With the rapid development of TV games, there are endless game platforms at this stage, and of course the types of games are also diverse. Sports games are undoubtedly the first choice for family entertainment.

This time, Xiaoy Games, as a platform producer dedicated to developing TV games, provided a sports game that has not yet been released - "Stickman Tennis 2015". Among the many games developed with tennis as the subject, what is the charm of this new game that can attract players to join?

The hardware device selected for the game test is Changhong CHIQ TV, and the one used is Tmall Magic Box 2 and Betu game controller.

Before entering the game, there is the key setting that everyone is familiar with. From the button settings of the handle, it can be seen that the operation of "Stickman Tennis 2015" is a little difficult.

After entering the game, you can see that the graphics style of "Stickman Tennis 2015" is more Q-version, and the characters are naturally the popular stickman, simple but prominent. The background music is brisk and dynamic, which keeps the players excited all the time, but the interface language is all in English, which may slightly increase the difficulty of operation for family entertainment.

It is worth mentioning that the operation interface is a common computer mouse, and the confirmation of the mouse is not controlled by the A button like the general handle, but an extra confirmation button - R1 is added.

In the upper left corner of the interface is the game character setting, because the stickman is the protagonist of this game, and there is only one character for players to choose. Making your own stickman is also a small experience for players, and of course naming it is also a task for players.

After setting up a character that suits the player's interests, we need to click PLAY to enter the game world. For players who are new to this tennis game, Xiaoy Games has also set up a practice mode that is more user-friendly, but players can also skip it.

In the practice mode, players face the attack of the automatic server, allowing players to familiarize themselves with the three batting settings of "Stickman Tennis 2015" while hitting the ball.

What makes the average player feel most comfortable is that in the game, the movement of the character is controlled by the player himself, so judging the direction of the opponent's shot becomes a test of the player's reaction ability.

After getting familiar with the operation, exit the practice mode and enter the game. The options on the right side of the practice mode frame are quick game, grand prix, regional competitions and clay court events. From the picture, we can see that without clearing the quick game, it is impossible to unlock the various grand prix events in turn, and the grand prix competition is also divided into multiple levels, and the difficulty of each level increases.

When dragging icons on the game selection interface, the joystick controls the mouse very slowly, and sometimes the icon will not move. For this, click the icon you want to select, hold down the mouse confirmation key R1 and do not release it, slide the mouse, and the game item you want to select will be displayed in front of you easily. Very unique operation setting.

After selecting the quick game, we will see the most basic difficulty selection interface. In order to test the playability of this game, the evaluation room chose the simple difficulty. After determining the difficulty, you will be able to choose the NPC to fight against and the venue.

After the game starts, the game's operability is greatly improved. The NPCs in the game can be said to be like the tennis prince Federer, performing a series of hitting actions such as lobs and slices on the players, which is very operable. Invisibly, the players' interest and sense of achievement in the game are enhanced after winning a game. In the unique setting, the losing stickman will throw the racket to the ground to vent his dissatisfaction, and the winner will cheer and jump for joy, making the game more humane.

This game "Stickman Tennis 2015" shows players the characteristics of the game with its simple style of stickman characters. In addition to the sense of operation, the most important feature is that the stickman can be upgraded and added points. You read it right, it is the character attribute point adding system. It is very different from previous tennis games. That is, our protagonist can develop into various types according to the player's preferences. It can be set as a mobile stickman with excellent light skills, or a violent stickman like Hercules.

The version tested this time does not include the setting for online battles. Of course, this is just a test version, and the specific content will depend on the release of the official version later.

Summary: For a game that uses stickmen as the main characters, "Stickman Tennis 2015" is unique and novel. From the difficulty of getting started to the feeling of operation when entering the game, the design is very good, which can be well adapted to the large screen of TV, and the unique setting of a single character can also let players experience a different feeling. Among TV games, "Stickman Tennis 2015" can be regarded as a rare masterpiece. After the official version is released, I hope it can give players a greater shock.
