## What is Clutch The Game?

One finger. One tunnel. One more try.

Clutch is a one-finger arcade game that rewards precision and nerve. You weave a glowing craft through an ever-narrowing synthwave tunnel. Swipe to steer, survive as long as you can. The twist: collecting orbs drives your multiplier and your score, and daring a tight, fast passage earns the CLUTCH bonus. Play it safe and you flatline. Push your luck and the run lights up, until a single touch against a wall ends it.

PULL OFF THE CLUTCH
Survive a tight, fast stretch and the game rewards you with a "CLUTCH!" bonus and a hit of sound and haptics. That is where the name comes from: holding your nerve when the gap gets brutal and the pace ramps up.

250 LEVELS ACROSS 25 CHAPTERS
Play through a campaign of 250 levels, grouped into 25 chapters of 10 levels each. Three world themes (Neon City, Deep Space and Overdrive) cycle across the chapters, each with its own look and a gently rising challenge. Earn up to three stars per level for finishing clean and collecting orbs.

ENDLESS MODE
One endless run, Subway-Surfers style: keep going until one graze ends it, and push your high score higher and higher.

EDGE WINDOWS AND FLIPS
The tunnel edge is mostly wall, a sealed border with no way through. When a window opens, flip out one side and back in the other to earn escalating FLIP bonus points.

GLOBAL LEADERBOARD
Measure yourself against the world or just your country. The "Skill Only" filter shows separately who is on top without any purchased upgrades.

POWER-UPS, ORBS AND SHOP
Magnet, shield, slow-mo, phantom and breather power-ups change how you play. Collect gold orbs every run and spend them in the shop: on permanent power-up upgrades and on consumables (double score, start shield, revive).

MADE TO FEEL GOOD
- Synthwave visuals: horizon sun, neon grid, glowing trails.
- Pumping retro soundtrack and punchy sound effects.
- Reduced-motion option for a calmer ride.
- Plays offline, no internet needed for the core game.
- Unlockable craft skins to make the run yours.

Easy to pick up. Hard to master. Impossible to put down.

Clutch is free to play. It contains optional ads and optional in-app purchases (remove ads, orb packs). All craft skins unlock for free through campaign stars.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-04

A calmer picture while you play: the sun fades into the background and the grid holds still. Plus small under-the-hood improvements.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-07-27

More reliable purchases: an orb pack you bought is now credited even if the app closes or crashes mid-purchase. Plus technical updates under the hood.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-19

Ads now load much more reliably. Remove Ads is now available right in the shop. And the leaderboard asks for your name on your first entry. Happy clutching!

### 1.0.2 — 2026-07-16

Important fixes and improvements:
- Purchased orb packs are now credited reliably. An earlier purchase that did not arrive is credited automatically on the next launch.
- Ad buttons only appear when a video is actually ready
- Revive no longer sits right next to Retry on the game-over screen
- The FLIP and CLUTCH banner is more compact and never covers anything
- FLIP now counts during Phantom too
- Consistent version number everywhere

### 1.0.1 — 2026-07-16

Polish based on player feedback:
- Clearer HUD: shield and power-up indicators no longer overlap the bonus banners
- Phantom mode is now clearly visible on the translucent orb
- Orbs can appear in the open space between walls early in a run
- Orb points now escalate per collected orb, up to 300
- Power-up timers display correctly with upgraded durations
- Smoother transition when walls start moving
