Action and Role-Playing in their purest, gleefulest form!
Fastar! is the timeless tale of a boy with a big sword and a bowtie journeying across vast lands while being ambushed by malicious geometry. Wait, what, seriously? I'm not typing that, it doesn't make any sense. Oh, look what you made me do. I'll just start over.
Fastar! is an Action RPG for when you just don't have time for an Action RPG. Dead simple to pick up and play, you'll be slashing and shopping your way across the grassy plains of [irrelevant flavorful name of fantasy world here] in seconds. You'll cross the world in mere minutes. But mastery of your true objective -- reaching that goal as fast as humanly possible -- could take a lifetime*.
Fun for everyone from the casual player who loves to mash buttons, to the hardcore gamer-optimizer who loves to mash numbers, Fastar! will provide you with hours of minutes of seconds of simple arcadey joy.
Featured features:
- Reasonably adorable hand-drawn graphics!
- 24 different game modes for a variety of play experiences, some of which don't actually count!
- Global arcade-style high scores lists, where you can become internationally renowned if your full name is three letters or less!
- Flashy magic spells for any kind of player, from Daring to Thrifty to Congealed!
- A variety of control schemes to suit your particular playing posture! (Astronaut gymnasts excepted)
- Sometimes in the background you can see a guy on a unicycle! Look for him, he's nice.

Great game but it crashes now
kiwikenobi
I played the game a lot a few years ago, and it was great. But I tried it again now, and it crashes immediately upon starting it up. It doesn’t get past the cat in a box logo. I hope this game gets fixed someday, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to contact the developers anymore on their website as far as I can tell.
Please fix

Please fix the bugs that cause the game to crash. I know this app is old but it was such a great game that I used to play for hours as a kid!
Great game

I played this on my moms iPod touch like 7 years ago and I've had an android since last year but this was the first game i got when i got my 8+
Great; needs fix

This game is pretty cool. It just needs to be fixed so that it doesn’t crash after a game has concluded.
Fastar!

You have probably been looking at the screen shots and have been thinking "What the heck is this?! A weird looking person whacking blocks?" Well it is a weird looking customizable person whacking blocks while having the string of text saying "You have hit,walloped, thwacked, the (color) block for 134 damage!" This comedic approach combined with the simplicity of being a random person hitting blocks with no story whatsoever gives the player wonderful gameplay. Your player is customizable so you won't have to be the same old bland player every time. All in all this game is a great game that everyone should have.
Great game

I love this game and got it for free back when it first came out. Only thing I'd change is to add in an "endless" game mode, like Arena, but walking through the wilderness like all the other game modes. BTW, has anyone seen the unicycle guy, or are they kidding?
