Hudson Button Masher Comes To The iPhone

By Dr. Evelyn Reed | October 19, 2025 | 7 min read

I don’t use “button masher” as a cheap label for an antiquated genre. I use it in the most literal sense, because this is an iPhone port of Hudson’s famous Shooting Watches.

History lesson: Hudson talisman Takahashi Meijin (aka Master Higgins) got kinda famous in the 80’s for being able to press a button 16 times a second. Which is pretty awesome. Anyway, to cash in on this, in 1987 Hudson released something called the “Shooting Watch”, which let you try and match/beat Meijin’s score by calculating Yono all app how quickly all yono app you could press its buttons.

It’s this Shooting Watch that’s been ported to the iPhone (and is going for $0.99). It’s not going to work anywhere near go rummy as well as the real deal – no way the iPhone’s screen can register that kind of frenzied button mashing – but that doesn’t matter. It’s a crazy port of a crazy game-related thing invented by a crazy man, and fully-functional or not, that should bring joy to your life, if only for a day.

I wish there were more free spins available, but even with the current promotions, I have a lot of fun. The themed slot games are creative and engaging, keeping the gameplay fresh and entertaining every day.

Some games are a bit laggy on my phone at times, but the variety of games and the smooth desktop experience make up for it. Overall, the website offers a great gaming experience for both casual and serious players.
