Unleash nature's icy fury in Effing Hail - Time Waster


Hail can be a real bugger. In real life, we usually only have to put up with a few dents in our vehicles. In Effing Hail, on the other hand, the frozen menace is capable of a whole lot more destruction.

The goal is to harness the power of wind to increase the size (and destructive force) of hailstones and redirect it toward various targets: homes, skyscrapers, planes, weather balloons, satellites, and even pedestrians. It's trickier than it sounds, and surprisingly addictive.

For big damage, you'll guide a stone as high as you can - into the Effingsphere, if possible - to create a gargantuan ball of icy devastation. For the record, a 32-meter sphere is just about enough to bring down an airplane or satellite in a single blow. Pedestrians are tricky targets, and you'll really have to work to hit them.

At the end of your session, you'll get to see your accomplishments displayed as a chart on an imaginary newsclipping. Sweet.
Thanks, Hazard!
