Free competitive slapping game

Slap Kings is a free-to-play arcade game developed by Game Guru. It is a unique game where the only thing you will do is to slap your competition to become the best slapper. While the game concept appears dumb, it is surprisingly addictive due to its hilarious and stress-relieving features. Add in a nice visual and gameplay, and you will have a game you will come back to time after time. 

Become the master of slapping

Competitive slapping has become an increasingly-popular event since the video of a Russian slapping contest emerged online. In this video, a burly man known as Dumpling almost knocked his opponent unconscious with his slap. The video garnered millions of views and paved the way for various competitive slapping events. In competitive slapping events, two people standing in front of one another will take turns in slapping each other. The person who gets knocked out or gives up loses.

This competition is the premise of Slap Kings, although it is done in a cartoonish way. In the game, your character must slap his way through opponent after opponent in various themed locations. Both you and your opponent will have a health bar that you need to protect in order to win. There is also a marker that shows how powerful your slap will be. You need to stop the marker right in the center of the bar for you to deliver a powerful hit.

The more powerful the hit, the faster it is to lower the opponent’s health bar. Once the health bar drops to zero, ragdoll physics will take over. You can launch your opponent out of the ring and into the baying crowd. But this can happen to you, too. The difficulty increases for each level. You will have to improve your stats to meet the challenge. Using coins, you can buy more health and slap power. To earn coins, you need to win against your opponents or watch advertisements. 

Repeat until you win

There isn’t much to learn in Slap Kings. The game is straightforward. You only have to charge up your slaps and unleash your maximum power to the man in front of you. Every round will have the same goal, which makes it a bit repetitive. However, the charm of the game comes with its animation. 

The details in the game are very admirable. The characters’ faces reflect the damages inflicted upon them every time a slap lands, which can be very amusing. Moreover, the locations and characters in the game are unique and interesting.

Slap the competition away

All in all, Slap Kings is a surprisingly fun game. The gameplay—while repetitive—is very addicting. More, the details in the game are worth praising as it is not normally seen in free-to-play mobile games. However, like any free game, there are a lot of ads in the game. Players will also need more patience when marking the center of the slap-o-meter as it can be clunky and tends to mark the area that is way off your target.
