## What is Bugchinko?

Bugchinko is a beautiful and enchanting spin on Pachinko, the classic precursor to pinball. Use your quick reflexes and arcade mastery to tap, roll and bounce your way down to victory!

Bugchinko is one of the most beautiful games to ever grace an iPad or iPhone! Your eyes will drool over the visual spectacle of each hand-crafted level. It's best viewed on Metal enhanced devices with Retina displays.

How to Play:
Help Monty (the ball/bug) fall down the level and exit safely, while picking up Ladybugs along the way! 

- Use Monty's natural bouncing and rolling ability to get around the level
- Tilt to change Monty's rotation (subtle movements work best)
- Jump and Double-Jump to get around in mid-air
- Exit at the bottom of the level with the required number of Ladybugs

Suggested Devices:
iPad 2 (generation 1 and newer), iPad Mini, iPad Air & Air 2, iPhone 5 and newer

Key Features
Bughcinko features a familiar but totally unique game concept that seems easy to play at first, but hard to master in later levels.

The controls are super-simple and only requires you to tilt, roll and jump to make your way through the game. (Well… not you literally, Monty will do all of the rolling and such, but you will just simply tilt your device to tell him where to go.)

Monty’s Story

Monty the Armadillo Bug thinks he’s a tough guy when it comes to making his way down trees, but the problem is he can’t see where he’s going. That’s why he needs your help and expert guidance to make it to safety. Can you help this helpless little bug make his way home?
