P.A.C.O. is a game about one-armed bandits that you can play with one-handed. They're called Paco, Peco, Chico, and Rico.

The idea is to help this gang of crooks escape from prison. To do so, they need to scramble up the tall brickwork walls on pieces of ladder an accomplice is dropping from the top.

It's all about timing. You need to tap at the right time so that the bandit jumps to the next ladder.

Do it too soon and the bandit will miss and fall. But tap too late and the prison guard will catch up to them.

You've got the easier job, of course - you don't have to climb a ladder with a single arm.

But you will need good reflexes and a sense of timing if you want to succeed while playing P.A.C.O. after it arrives on the UK and US App Stores at midnight for free.
