There are loads of RPGs on Android, from JRPGs to old school pixelated retro ones to brainless money-sucking ones. Out of all of those, Widget RPG stands alone in a class of its own. Why? Because the game, if you could call it that, is both insanely easy to play and insane in itself. All you need to do is tap on the homescreen widget, where the game takes its name, to gain experience. And now you can do that even on your smartwatch too.
Yes, tapping is all you need to progress. Throw away all notion of battles, strategy, or reading text, aside from reading the manual. Tap, tap, tap is all you need. You can tap any time, anywhere. You can even do it without looking at your phone. Have you ever wished you could level up in your game even while talking with someone, waiting for the bus, or doing something else? Well, Widget RPG lets you do just that.
Sure, you do still get to increase your character's stats, collect loot, choose your next adventure in Guugle Maps, or post about your insane tapping achievement on Famebook. But those are really just the desserts. The main course is really just tapping away.
But developer ru3ch initiative knows that there are times when you can't even take out your smartphone to tap. Well, now you're in luck if you have an Android Wear smartwatch. The latest update now includes an app that lets you, what else, tap your way to the next level on your wrist. But let's face it. Tapping incessantly is tiring. So with the new Android Wear integration, Widget RPG gets a new superpower: "tap by voice". Simply speak into your smartwatch and it will convert every word into a tap. Now you can put your monologuing and ranting, or your significant other's, to more productive use.
So if you're looking for some senseless fun without requiring you to break a sweat, or your brain, why not give Widget RPG and its new Android Wear pack a try. Just remember to give your fingers a break once in a while.
