Javelin Masters 2 for iPhone

Quick snapshot

Javelin Masters 2 is a focused, addictive reinterpretation of Konami’s old Track & Field title, pared down to a single discipline: the javelin throw. Its straightforward concept and retro-arcade presentation make it easy to pick up, while the competitive elements keep players coming back.

Gameplay mechanics

• The real skill comes from choosing the correct release angle and timing to squeeze out every extra meter.
• You build up your run-up speed by rapidly tapping or sliding across two on-screen controls.
• A final press of a third button sends the javelin flying, with distance determined by your speed and release.

What makes it replayable

Leaderboards and score-chasing add a surprising level of motivation, encouraging you to refine technique and beat personal or global records. The combination of simple controls and demanding timing creates a satisfying retro-arcade loop.
