There are plenty of fast reaction, high score games available for iPhone, and that number went up by one today with the release of iShot: Pirates.

It's an incredibly simple game that has you placing your finger on the cross-hairs at the bottom left of the screen, and then dragging it onto the moving target on the pirate's face to shoot him.

Arrrrrgh, that hurts

Obviously, there's little challenge in doing that once, but considering for each session, you have 45 shots to drag across - or shoot off - with each attempt being labelled (and scored) as either superb, great, okay, or a miss - and a game slowly emerges.

There are easy, medium and hard levels - these relating to the unpredictable movement of the target - and Game Center is on hand so you can compare your successes on the global leaderboard.

Surprisingly though, there's no timed mode to really get your fingers moving.

iShot: Pirates is available now for iPhone and iPod touch, priced 99c, €0.79 or 59p.
