Are you ready for an electrifying circus act? I need a steady thinker that will pass the challenge and life of a circus performer. But before that, let me tell you facts about circus, the performers, and of course the death-defying cannonballs. 

Y.I.I (Your Instant Information)

Cannonball is piece of round shot ammunition shaped like a ball that is used to load cannons, an artillery that uses explosive-based detonator to launch destructive weapons. The first development of cannons was in China used during the early times creating great damage to its opponent. Cannons vary in range, armaments, motion, rate, and angle of fire. It can be adjusted depending on their intentional use in the combat zone making it one of the powerful weapons in Chinese history.

Circus is an oval or circular arena that showcases different performers, jugglers, acrobats, clowns, equestrian, and trained animals that wow spectators. Ideally, a circus is a performing visual arts that have been accepted by many. There were performers who peddled from town to town performing at local festivals to expand more of the business. It became popular to many and people even built an infrastructure to accommodate such performance in early days. As popularity grows, a conflict occurs during the 60’s and the 70’s, issues about the rights of the animals used to perform in an act were the main concern of anxious crowds.

As time pass by, solid circus performers elevated again the fame they once had. They shifted their performance mixing up human and animal in one act. And the former circus that we knew is now made up of striped colored tents with flag on top of it.

The Circus Performer

I am a thrill and challenge seeker little girl by heart. Circus is one of the exciting schemes for me, so anything related to it is interesting and attention getter. As a child, I imagine myself watching a circus show and participating in one of their death-defying acts. I know that is not easy to entertain people why your life is in great danger. Seriously, real circus show is a high time for me and a one of a kind experience. Since we are living in a modernize world I rarely see circus performers anymore though there are professional circus performers who goes country to country to perform. I just have to pay a big amount of money to be able to witness such great acts. For some people, they considered circus as part of their lives, some are even attending training camps to learn, and some are born with natural talent on becoming one of the adept performers in a circus.

At first, I assumed that the app is just a simple boring puzzle game posing the same idea of collecting stars and escaping obstacles. But when I downloaded Rick O’ Shea I was a bit amazed because I never thought that the idea of the app was all about circus. Manipulating a circus performer in the game particularly a human cannonball was a fun idea and me trying to perfect the so-thought stunts is pretty awesome. There are actually different characters in a circus show though players have to buy all 8 of them for nonchalant game experience. I was upset though with the fact that there is only one free stage in the game then the rest is paid. They could have let the other acts free for users to unlock and then have them purchase the extra characters. But then again the app is irresistible!
