Fans of old-fashioned games can have fun this weekend with Apple’s new Free App of the Week: Beans Quest!
Beans Quest is free for a week
In Bean’s Quest you take on the role of a cheerful green bean with a sombrero on his head. It automatically bounces across your screen, so all you have to do is tap the left or right arrow. This makes the game a bit reminiscent of Super Mario Run, where in Bean’s Quest you automatically jump instead of running.
The Mario equations don’t stop there. In this game, too, you traverse colorful worlds with a retro pixel style, avoiding obstacle after obstacle. Bean’s Quest hides 150 individual challenges spread across 5 worlds. Plenty to do, and with the entertaining background music, this game will not get boring quickly.
One of the coolest additions to Bean’s Quest is the extensive leaderboard feature. Here you compete against other players and your friends. This will show you who got the highest score and how long it took to complete a challenge. Especially if you can persuade some friends to play this game, this adds an extra dimension to the adventure of this green bean. Now that the game is free to download, it shouldn’t be too difficult.
Save three euros this week
Normally, Bean’s Quest costs $ 2.99, but you can download the game for free until next Thursday. That is the advantage of the App of the Week: every week Apple selects an app that can be picked from the App Store for seven days. In return, this one gets a featured position on the front page of Apple’s app store.
