HealBot the video game

Passing this on to the group. I don't have an iOS device so I can't try
it. As a fan of Healbot, I'd like to try this at least once. No sample
video or screen shots. Dang.

If you follow the itunes.apple.com link that you posted, you can see
the screen shots.

It doesn't look like Healbot - it just has a number of status bars
with three buttons at the bottom: light / medium / heavy. I don't see
a mana bar anywhere.

I tried this out today and threw it out after half a minute, it's a load of
crap.

Basically, you have three heals that all seem to take the same time to cast
and heal for different amounts. It is unclear when they add to your target's
health bar, at times it grew before I was done casting, at times it grew
after I had finished casting. There is no mana bar, the only decision is
whom to heal and which heal to use. No shielding, no aoe heal, no multi
target heals, no HOTs. Nothing like healing in WoW at all.

Cheers

This reminds me of the "Teron Gorefiend" flash game we used to play,
during our Black Temple days. It was basically the only way you could
put practice time into being the ghost. I think for our first 3 kills,
we made everyone play that game for 5 minutes.
