Twisted Tennis

We never tire of good tennis games here - there's been the straight up approach of Tennis Ace and the more leftfield bent of Tardis Tennis with many more besides. It's fitting then that Twisted Tennis sits somewhere nicely between these two. There is some pretty pure tennis playing to be had and a little of the zany to be enjoyed alongside.

You have a choice of eight basic players and can play against the computer or a real-life opponent. You have a power meter to build up so that you can unleash a brutal battering ram shot (although the using of it can cause havoc), and there are three different venues to play in with little added animation touches to keep the fun levels up. Great, simple stuff.

Use the arrow keys to move round the court and to direct your shots. Then use 'z' for a fast hit, 'x' for a low hit and 'c' for a high hit. Once you've filled your special meter use z to unleash hell.

Get yourself in a suitable position around the ball before pressing your desired shot. Cross court shots are a good means to catch your opponent, and will fox them a lot of the time.
