Poots! by djk
Team DJK presents... POOTS!
Poots is a fast-paced couch competitive game for 2-4 players where you play a color drop on a white grid. The goal of the game is to color as much of the grid as you can with your color before time is up.
There are two ways you can color the grid:
First, you can run as quick as you can across the grid, coloring each square as you step on it. If you step on a square that someone else colored, it changes to your color!
Second, and the more fun way, is to shoot at your opponents! If you hit them, they will explode and that splash will turn all of the nearby squares to your color!
If you explode, you will return a few moments later with a temporary halo of invincibility, so watch out!
The game is fun at 2 players, but to really experience the excitement of this game, get 3 or 4 players together and have a blast! Good luck!
NOTE: This game requires 2-4 game controllers.
