Is It Any Good?
SLICE HD houses a collection of puzzles that challenges users to carefully move a series of sharp blades around the screen. By figuring out how each blade moves – be it a knife, sword, scalpel, scissors, or guillotine -- you'll eventually expose a red button or two that must be pressed in order to advance to the next level. If you slip up by touching the edge of a blade, a realistic splatter of blood splashes on the screen. It looks so real you might just check your fingertip for cuts. Because there are often a number of blades to retract, swing, or hold in place per level, Slice HD can be a game for two or more people to play together -- as such, the game can best be described as a bloody cross between Twister and a board game like Operation. Along with the blood, the only other shortcoming is a lack of levels. It probably won't take too long to complete all 24 included with the game. As long as you don't get grossed out by the sight of blood and are old enough to understand that you should not play with knives in real life -- meaning this isn't a game for kids -- Slice HD can make for a dangerously intriguing game.
