Flick Kick Field Goal is a pretty fun "wind physics" game.  There are a couple different game mode options, such as Practice, Precision and Sudden Death.  Practice is what you'd imagine it'd be.  You get to practice without the pressures of having to get a good score and all that.  Precision mode is where you get 20 kicks to try and get the high precision percentage possible.  There are five zones within the goal posts.  Two closest to the uprights are 50%, then slightly closer to the middle is 75%, and straight down the middle is 100%.  Anywhere outside of the uprights is 0%.  The game calculates your total percentage as you go along and gives you a final percentage at the end(Our highest is 85% so far!).  Sudden Death mode is our favorite game mode.  It's pictured in this post(that's not our high score though!).  The objective is to keep making field goals for as long as possible.  Every time you put one straight down the middle, you get an extra life(marked by those football icons in the top right of that screen shot).  If you happen to miss a field goal completely, you lose one of those extra lives.  If you don't have any extra lives when you miss, your game ends and your final score is shown.  Our highest score in this mode is 264!  Oh, and one more crucial detail.  If you flick three straight down the middle in a row, your next made field goal will be worth 2 points.  And if you make that one, your next is worth 3 points.  And so on and so forth, up until 10 points per kick.  That's the highest you can get from a single kick.
The multi-player in this game is just a leaderboard featuring your stats/achievements from the game along side others'.  You don't really have any 1 on 1 game play or anything like that.  It would be nice if they'd include some sort of actual multiplayer in a future update.
Graphics on Flick Kick Field Goal are pretty good for such a simple game.  There are a few situations where it will look like your ball made it, but it says you missed.  But if you just realize that, and then compensate for that on your future kicks, you won't even notice after a little while.  Sometimes it works out in your favor too.
The gameplay is very smooth.  You see how much wind is blowing and in what direction it is blowing.  This game is sort of like the Paper Toss games.  We haven't had to force close it or anything like that.
So overall, we say this game is worth downloading and trying out.  If you like football, you'll probably enjoy it a little more than others, but even if you don't, it's still a pretty neat game with decent gameplay and graphics.
