Slide To Play said "Super QuickHook is a worthy sequel to Hook Champ in every way. The game has a rating of 96/100 on Metacritic based on 9 critic ratings. Older iOS devices may experience a bit of lag." Super QuickHook If you are playing on an iPad, iPhone 3G (or later model), or a third generation iPod Touch, loading times should be virtually non-existent. Counterintuitivly, I found the retro-style graphics to be a breath of fresh air. The game currently has a 4.5 star rating average on the appstore, and it's definitely well deserved." AppSafari gave it 4.5/5 stars, commenting "For only $0.99 Hook Champs is a great value. It's too bad this game isn't in the top 100 of games sold on the appstore, because it definitely should be. It's the first game I've reviewed here that I think is a must buy. I can't recommend this retro style platformer enough, especially at the price of $2.99. A small time developer has a great simple idea, executes it extremely well and can put it out for me to consume and enjoy.
It has expressive, retro graphics, well-written dialogue full of humor, and an addictive gameplay mechanic." 148Apps gave it 4/5 stars, concluding "This game is exactly what I love about the iPhone. Developer Rocketcat keeps adding new content through updates, such as additional levels, so Hook Champ has real longevity." Pocket Gamer gave it 8/10, writing "With a superb retro style and a script littered with chuckles aplenty, Hook Champ is largely a joy to play and especially hard to put down, at its best when you're swinging in an almost ape like fashion from the ceiling." Slide To Play said "Hook Champ brings together many elements that we look for in a great game. You just know when to throw the hook again and keep out of the gaping maw that's giving chase. When you get up a real head of steam and fly though the caves (after banking some rope and hook upgrades, of course), Hook Champ borders on zen. The thread on our forums are filled with enthusiastic and overwhelmingly positive impressions of the game, and Lasharor has some excellent tips for newcomers." IGN gave it 8.5, commenting "Hook Champ is great retro-style platformer. It is currently on sale for 99ยข this weekend, which only serves to sweeten the deal.
The gamplay may not be especially original but the quantity (and quality) of the characters you can choose from, along with the different different game modes and excellent graphics make it an essential app for any WWE fans.TouchArcade gave the game 4/5, and wrote "Hook Champ is an absolutely fantastic game that all fans of retro styled sidescrollers should own.
