WHACK!

A "game" that was accessible from the Flash Store. You hit the Kick button and a giant Strong Bad foot kicks The Cheat as he falls from a robotic arm. If you hit him successfully, he slams against a brick wall and falls to the ground. It is also possible to hit him so that he merely flies up into the air, but does not hit the wall for which you will earn no points. The score is calculated once The Cheat hits the wall, therefore if you press reset before he hits the wall the point will not be added. It uses cookies to save your score between sessions of the game (i.e., if you stop playing and come back later, your score is remembered).
